Memorial to Babatunde Olatunji
April 7, 1928 - April 6, 2003
With great sadness, our dear friend and drum teacher, Babatunde Olatunji,
passed away,
Sunday, April 6, 2003, 7:30 am, age of 76, one day
before his 77th birthday.
"I am that I am, I am
beauty, I am peace, I am joy, I am
one with Mother Earth. I am one with everyone within the reach of my
voice. In this togetherness, we ask the divine intelligence to
eradicate all negatives from our hearts, from our minds and from
our actions. And so be it....ashe."
Baba was one of my best friends, my
mentor, my buddy. I miss you Baba. I will always love you.
