The dancers were beautiful and it was a very lovely send-off, especially the joyful freestyle dancing at the end. Such a fortunate life to have touched so many and made such a difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1658202452707400073.post-22784635542152242352017-05-26T15:13:06.783-04:002017-05-26T15:13:06.783-04:00Chuck Davis I will always love you, you changed my...Chuck Davis I will always love you, you changed my delinquent life when I was a teenager. We came in the class to disrupt but we soon found out, you wasn't having it. You straightened me out Brother, You enriched my life. I learned to stick to it, don't give up, perseverance, I fought with myself in those dance classes and realized I could do it. And that spirit is still with me today.. YOU LIVE IN All YOUR STUDENTS.Peace and blessings Berger 1967https://www.blogger.com/profile/03223839492889218531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1658202452707400073.post-50451616383105428462017-05-21T11:00:23.704-04:002017-05-21T11:00:23.704-04:00Charles "Chuck"Davis known affectionatel...Charles "Chuck"Davis known affectionately Baba Chuck was and still is one of the most powerful men of our time. When I met Baba in the 80's he and Baba Melvin Deal were the two men that introduced me to the African Dance community...that was in 1981. My love and continued study of this craft...this language...this 'blackness' from the lens of post transatlantic slave trade set me into motion literally and figuratively--teaching,performing,traveling, spreading the news,redefining the power of DANCE! Baba Chuck we were supposed to meet next moth in Durham, I will be there looking for you and I am sure you will be there. Go softly onto that rivier where many other of our great ancestors await you. REST IN POWER...as I know you will.<br />With great respect and love I bow to you!!!!!!!!<br />Nia Love and familyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16495948278923700322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1658202452707400073.post-28590570948409278592017-05-21T10:49:40.834-04:002017-05-21T10:49:40.834-04:00From God we come and to Him we return.

He said I "entered this earthly realm dancing to the rhythm of the drum". He taught my Mother the Art of African Dance and he taught me too. <br />I LOVE YOU BABA, REST NOW ... PEACE AND BLESSINGS.
