“When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul”
The Clarke and Junfijiah families announce with profound sorrow and saddened hearts the passing of Mr. Shadrick Clarke Junfijiah, Sr., their dearly beloved son, father, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, friend and associate.
