Tribute to Omega Psi Phi Brothers who have died of Covid-19

The leadership and members of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. extend our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of our beloved brothers who have succumbed to COVID-19 and entered Omega Chapter. We will hold fast to memories of these departed brothers and long remember their notable accomplishments to their communities and our world. The Bible’s 10th chapter of John reads, “And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.”

It is left now to Omega men to resolve to carry on their good works with fidelity.We must be steadfast and persevere in these perilous times, taking prudent health precautions while also serving boldly in a world that needs us. As a people, we have been here before. The Rt. Rev. Richard Allen, a founder of The African Methodist Episcopal Church, wrote the following about the Yellow Fever pandemic of 1793: “Surely our task was hard; yet through mercy we were enabled to go on.” As it was then, so it is now for Sons of Omega.
