It is hard to wrap my head around the fact that Freetown and the world is without Herbert now. Somehow, he gave me the impression he would be there for eternity with this smile….. and with all his wisdom, experiences, expertise which he never used to show off but to create space for transformation and growth.
I am very grateful to have had the chance to work with him and to receive his advice and reflections. We never talked about that, but I saw him as a mentor and I learnt so much. Herbert always managed to see the opportunity in people and I will try my best to carry on in this mindset.
My deepest condolences to Herbert’s family and close friends and to everyone who is mourning him.
