Kwame Nkonde was 68 living in Oakland, California. He passed Tuesday morning July 21, 2020. Kwame was born March 31, 1952 in Lusaka,Zambia. 

As a very young man he learned to work hard and to take on whatever job was available to support himself and his family.

Kwame loved music and played harmonica and guitar to entertain friends and family. Baseball was his one true sport. He loved to watch and even played catch with his sons and grandchildren. He loved to be with family and was always up for a picnic, reunion or gathering of friends. 

He was a strong patriarch of his family, a good friend to all, a man who would give his shirt for a friend. 

He was a good father who always took care of his children and did the best he could to teach and guide them, a loving grandfather and “great-grand” father to many. 

Kwame was a strong, proud and good man. He is loved and will be missed by everyone.
