15 year old Nigerian schoolboy and footballer, Joel Adeshina was stabbed to death at Bethnal Green Road in East London on Friday night December 5th by a group of boys.

Manager of Joel’s football team Bardag FC Yellows, Ricky Downes, said Joel, who was a winger, was ‘as good as gold’ and talented enough to play professionally.

Joel was a wonderful young lad who had the world at his feet. He was a very talented footballer and had ambitions of playing professionally.
I think he had a future in the sport and could have played for a living.
There was something about Joel that touched me and his death is totally unexpected.

He was cheeky, bubbly, and a thoroughly likeable young man.’ he said

HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED?

This man was a big Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and this is how the family wanted him remembered. So they told the funeral director that instead of placing his body in a coffin, they wanted the man placed on a recliner, with a television playing Pittsburgh Steelers highlights. Next to him there was to be a table with an open can of beer and a package of cigarettes.

This was the lasting impression that was imprinted on the minds of people who knew him. The question I have for you today is a simple one: How do you want people to remember you?

Some of us might die soon, and some of us might not die for a while, and we have all heard that statement about lasti...
