Let us celebrate
A giving and regal soul
A king now at rest

notes
I'll keep this simple. I was shocked and saddened to learn about the death of Chadwick Boseman from colon cancer. He was a truly decent and kind person. While fighting cancer himself, he took the time to visit young cancer patients and inspire them not to give up. 

The world lost a truly noble spirit with Chadwick's passing, and it is appropriate to grieve this loss. However, it is also appropriate to celebrate the positive effect he had on all whose lives he touched. He was a positive role model for all the world to look up to.
