Dear beloved Mum, Just like a nightmare, you are no more. Circumstances have taught me, and those around me not to weep. But we can smile for you, knowing full well that you’ve moved on to higher heights on life’s endless journey. Very few are privileged to have a mother like you. You abdicated your sterling qualities to your children. Sure, the ideals which you lived by, and your legacy shall not be in vain. Truly, I’ve lost a priceless gem. Forever you’ll live on in my heart. Forever you’ll remain a shining light. Selflessly, you loved God and humanity. Your sterling legacy shall remain indelible in my heart.
Mum, my wife shares a name with you - Elizabeth. Mum, my son also shares a name with you - Ebunoluwa. How precious you have been in our lives. How profound has your sincerity in serving the Lord affected us. You remain a legacy to me with your committedness to Christ. Death is not victorious over you even though you suffered a little before passing on. The joy you now share surpasses the pain suffered. You now have transcended into the world where Jesus is sitted at the right hand of God the Father. Your children will not forget your sacrifice and labour of love and most of all this legacy you have left behind.. You are cherished more than you can ever imagine.
Mum your touched my life in profound ways. Thank YOU for the love you showed. Your son.
