He blazed a trail in the NBA

With the untimely demise of Manute Bol, his family have lost a father, a brother, a son, the NBA has lost a trailblazer, Sudan has lost an ambassador and peacemaker, and the world has lost a humanitarian. He had a dream to build 41 schools across Southern Sudan and through Sudan Sunrise, he had started to see his dream come to fruition - it would be a fitting legacy for his dream to be realised.

RIP
