We have lost a friend

Written Monday, 8 October 2007

 

 

Yesterday Lamine Ndongo, the safety and security officer for Peace Corps Senegal, was killed in a car accident.

 

I didn't know Lamine very well, but he was a wonderfully nice guy who cared about us volunteers and did his best to keep us safe and get us out of sticky situations when they happened.   He was a friend to all of us.  Peace Corps Senegal will not be the same without him.

 

Our hearts go out to his family.
