His voice was mersmerizing. He was the King of Kool and Funk in the traditions of the Afrikan Manu Dibango and the legendary Barry White. Back when, my friend Onyango, a fellow teacher at Lugulu Girls' High School--Kenya, introduced me to Issac Hayes' music. Using his hand as a make-believe microphone, Onyango would, as we partied, sing (karokied--when karokie wasn't even a word in the West) to: A few more kisses to go.

Thank you Issac Hayes for the good times and memories. You made the world a little better. You came, you created, and you bowed out a god!
