G-Lers:
On behalf of the family of Lasana Darbo, the deceased, I wish to thank all
of you for the many phone calls and e-mails to extend your condolences.Las,
as he was commonly called by the many who knew him, was a people's person
who always had a smile on his face.  His passion was to make people laugh
and he truly excelled at it. He was also a very diligent gentleman by all
standars of measure.  Calls came from across the world since Saturday and
continue to pour in up to the minute I left Raleigh Sunday  evening. The
body is due to be released to a funeral home later today (Monday 12/18/00)
for preparations to transport to the Gambia later in the week or earlier
next week for burial. The cost of funeral expenses and transportation cost
to the Gambia is estimated at $4,000 (four thousand US dollars).
Donations to defray the funeral expenses can be sent to:
Musa Darboe
3806 Brentwood Road - Apt B1
Raleigh, North Carolina 27604
Tel:919-431-0952
    919-877-9760
Wire Transfers can sent to Musa Darboe's account at Central Carolina Bank
(CCB)

Routing #: 053100465

May the soul of the deceased rest in eternal peace- Amen.
