Fetoai Vaegafa (Phoe) Nimo

Fetoai Vaegafa (Phoe) Nimo, age 20, our beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend was called back home to our Heavenly Father on October 22, 2014 at 2:10 a.m. He was born 26 February 1994 at Fagaalu Hospital in American Samoa, he arrived in the U.S. when he was nine months old and was raised in West Jordan, Utah. He is the youngest son to Loine Lisa Taulagi Manusina Asiata and Vaegafa Nimo. Known by family as “Phoe” and “Nimo” by friends, he was a dedicated and faithful member of The L.M.S. Toefuataina Church. He graduated from Kearns High School in 2012. He enjoyed playing basketball, football and spending time with family and friends. He was a huge fan of the Oakland Raiders Football Team, and an avid supporter of his younger brother (Soane Jr.) and cousin (Bill Vavau) football games. He was a devoted uncle and brother who loved to play video games with his nephews, and being able to spoil his sisters and mother with every chance he got. Phoe loved his family unconditionally and had the great privilege to live and be raised by many people in his family and touch their lives. His love for life and perseverance lead him to be a hardworking, successful, beautiful young man with a bright future. His passion for work made him competitive and wanting to be the best in everything he put his mind to, and through his determined and stubborn ways he always got what he wanted! He is a shining example of unconditional love and acceptance. He listened with an ever-caring ear and spoke words of love, never failing to help anyone in need. He continually had something to say that could put a smile on your face. He was loved by all that were fortunate enough to have known him. Phoe will forever be remembered for his incredible humbleness, infamous smile, fun, loving and caring personality. Most of all, he will be remembered as a young man who was deeply devoted to his family. Phoe was a special gift from our Heavenly Father, and words cannot describe how much he will be missed.
