The Legacy Of Philip Imade
adminPhilip Imade was many things in one, he was a fighter, a relentless go-getter and a cheerful man.
Four qualities of Philip that stood out for me were:
- Cheerful
- Kind and responsible
- Diligent
- Principled
Cheerful: A popular saying goes thus: “we don’t look like what we have been through” – this saying aptly captured who Philip was. Even though he was consistently facing challenges with his health, I have never seen Philip frown, I have never heard him raise his voice, and he was always the life of the party at all times. Philip was a cheerful fellow.
Kind and responsible: I have seen Philip go out of his way countless times to lend a helping hand to others. I have worked with him on quite several projects, and Philip was always ready to shoulder responsibilities without any hesitations or second thoughts. Philip is always responsible and shows up when you need him.
Diligent: Philip handled the balance between work and pleasure with utmost grace, he was diligent in handling both. A task-oriented and purposeful man who handles tasks with tact and intelligence. Whenever he is free, he was always sketching
Principled: All the aforementioned can be summed up in this. Philip was a principled friend who has time for all things both business and pleasure. Not to mention that unless my memory fails me, Philip has never been late for anything.
I lost a friend, but I gained more; the lessons of his death will guide me till I see him again. What would become of you “IF YOU WERE PHILIP”? Find out more here
