Soloman was a gentle soul, widely respected in our community. Not only was he a skilled carpenter, but he was also a devoted family man dedicated to providing for his loved ones. While his communication style might have been occasionally irksome to some, it is unimaginable that such minor differences could ever justify the heinous act that took his life. Soloman's untimely departure serves as a painful reminder of the need for compassion, understanding, and unity in our community. We must stand together, reject violence, and promote empathy to ensure that such tragedies never recur.
