In-Tune temporarily lost one of its members, Ted Atebe, after he flew out of the country for further studies. The entire group will surely miss him while he is very far away from us, but we believe we are one in spirit.
There was a going away party held for him at the Atebe residence in Westlands..and it was well attended with almost all of In-Tune being there, together with Drama Band members and other friends and family. Joseph and I missed out on the grub, but from what we so repetitively hear, it was fantastic. After the stuffings, there was a bonding session in which everyone had a word or two to say about Ted and the mark he had left on us.
The Drama Band group made it a less tearful affair with their occassional humor and wit and even though we were saying our goodbyes, it didn’t seem like we were actually seing off someone. But not just someone, seeing as such In-Tune is a brotherhood.
Ted will be missed by all, with his humor and dedication, it won’t be easy but we’ll manage. As for his ‘other half’, Craig, is still with us, as strong as ever. None of us can comprehend how it feels to be separated from your twin brother. In-Tune sang ‘Truth was Standing’ one last time with Ted and then the group AMO Junior gave us an item and finally Gifted.
Joseph, Tichy, George, Ted Okoth, Edwin, Jamo and myself then stayed behind for our last practice with Ted the Twin….and then it was time to leave. Ted, even where you are, keep the Torch of Christ burning, and remember that In-Tune is with you all the way…
