Valentine’s Day the 14thof February is a day set aside for love globally. Yesterday’s celebration of this love day was indeed very eventful even though I was in a makeup update training all day; there was still love in the air all around me.
The day was almost coming to an end when I read of the famous South African Paralympian Oscar Pistorius who shot his girlfriend claiming that he thought she was a burglar, the news really baffled me and got me thinking how this golden boy had moved from fame to shame.
I finally got home and settled down to enjoy a romantic evening with my hubby when the news of Goldie’s death broke. I paid no attention to it as I thought it was
the usual hoax that came with ills of our ever reliable social network. The news continued to trend until I read Mr. Kenny Ogungbe’s (President, Kennis music) release on the matter:

I was shocked to my bones as I had a few personal encounters with this wonderful lady; she was full of energy and was very assertive. I know there will never be a time that I can make her face up again of course unless we are allowed to that in the great beyond.
Sleep well my friend, we love you but God loves you more, Rest in Peace Susan Oluwabimpe Harvey.
