Chukwudi always had a smile on his face! He radiated positive energy and was a great person to be around. He was also really helpful! Last time I saw him was at the UK Stroke Forum in December. I was at the poster presentation section and coudn’t work out how to use the big computer screens to access the posters. I saw Chukwudi and headed right over to him to explain my dilemma. He just smiled his typical “don’t worry, everything will be ok” kind of smile and patiently showed me how to access the posters. He then talked me through his own poster which was (of course) brilliant! I could have shared more stories about my chats with Chukwudi. They all share the same theme about how nice, friendly, helpful and enthusiastic he was – his energy was always positive and great to be around. We will miss Chukwudi terribly in our GCU SYNERGY Research Group. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.
