Perpetual Home Going of Alumus Steve Kpou, Sr.
My family and I are saddened to hear news of the perpetual home going of our beloved fellow TIGER Steve. On behalf of myself and my family, I extend heartfelt condolences to Mrs. Ahmed Kpou and the entire Kpou family for this irreplaceable loss. May his soul rest in peace.

I was deeply shocked upon hearing about the untimely demise of Steve Kpou, a person that I can truly characterize as a friend. Steve was a classmate and a person that I could always rely upon for moral guidance during those rambunctious days at BWI. Steve was unassuming and didn't seek the spot light, but never hesitated to engage and do the things that were necessary to sustain our various organizations that bring us together as a Diaspora community. We have lost a friend, a person of conviction, character and a pillar of our BWI community. My family and I express our condolences to his wife, Ahmed and family. Steve and others like him are the ones who give of themselves, selflessly to doing the work of keeping organizations like BWI Association and others operating that benefits the greater number of us. Steve will be missed by all, may is soul rest in Eternal Peace and may God Bless his family.
