Dear friends and family,

As we gather here today to celebrate the life of Likamva, we are left with a profound sense of loss. Yet, at the same time, we cannot help but feel a sense of gratitude for having had the opportunity to know and love this remarkable individual.

Likamva was multifaceted - a poet and a musician, a clown and a philosopher. She had a warm and infectious personality, her laughter was like a melody, and her presence brought joy to everyone around her. Likamva possessed the rare gift of making life feel like an adventure, reminding us to embrace its beauty and cherish each moment.

As a poet, Likamva had a unique way of connecting with the world around her. She poured her heart and soul into her words, painting life with the brushstrokes of her verses. Her passion for the written word was evident as she shared her talent for crafting powerful and evocative phrases which resonate with us long after they were spoken or penned.

Likamva was also a natural musician. Even when she wasn't performing on stage, she would effortlessly create harmonies in her everyday life, be it through her contagious laughter or her natural affinity for touching people's hearts through her actions. The world was her symphony, and she played each note with perfect pitch.

As a friend, Likamva could always make you laugh, no matter how bleak a day. Her wit and humor were unparalleled, and she knew exactly how to lift the spirits of everyone in the room. Despite her mischievous nature, Likamva was genuinely compassionate and dedicated to her friends, always offering a helping hand and a listening ear in times of need.

As we grieve and mourn the loss of Likamva, let us remember the beautiful moments we shared with her, and honor her memory by living our lives with gratitude, love, and laughter.

Let us take comfort in an inspirational prayer that fits Likamva's essence so perfectly - "Dancing in the Sky" by Dani and Lizzy:

Tell me, what does it look like in heaven?
Is it peaceful? Is it free like they say?
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Have your fears and your pain gone away?

Here on earth, it feels like everything
Good is missing since you left
And here on earth, everything's different
There's an emptiness

Oh, I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived

Now, as we bid farewell to our cherished Likamva, let us carry with us the spirit of her laughter, the enchantment of her poetry, and the music of her soul. May we all strive to live our lives to the fullest, inspired by our dear friend's example.

Rest in peace, Likamva. We will always hold you close in our hearts, and celebrate the indelible mark you left on our lives. Dance among the stars, and continue to light up our world from up above.

Thank you.
