Remembering Chimdi Mbonu '87
Last week, we learned of the passing of Chimdi Mbonu '87, former Vice President of our Alumni Association and a strong advocate of Church Farm School. Chimdi (pictured below with fellow alumni Peter Goda '60 and David Zimmerman '88) truly exemplified the very best of Church Farm School, continuing to give of himself to today's boys and alumni as a member of the Alumni Association and always looking for ways to keep his brothers informed and involved in advancing the welfare of others.

"You know, it's OK for us alumni to love each other and admit it when we speak of each other. For many, the bonds of brotherhood we share with each other often includes a level of love and appreciation unmatched in our lives. For me, and the many who knew him, Chimdi represented this. His physical presence, his booming voice were wrapped in a loving, caring, gentle and decent man. Chimdi's participation at our Annual Dinner and opinions during his years of service to Alumni Executive Committee meetings will truly be missed. His memory will not fade easily for any of us. He loved Church Farm School, and she loved him back. Like so many others I will always think of him with great fondness and love; the gentle and thoughtful man that was our friend. Rest our brother, you are home now." - Don Burt, President, CFS Alumni Association
