Nwokoma, I'm looking at your lovely smile with a heavy heart. I missed you ! This is your birth month .

Going through old papers I stumbled upon a reference written for me by Dr. Nwokorie when I was a senior at East Stroudsburg University in Pennsylvania. Curious as to his current whereabouts, I Googled his name and found this memorial to him. Reading the tributes confirmed that this truly is the same man! Dr. Nwokorie was certainly one of the best, if not the best teacher I ever had. But beyond that he was a kind, generous man who manifested a true love of life and knowledge. I echo CeCe's words, He "will be here forever in my heart."

We thank God for the great legacy left in the lives of the children and grandchildren - wisdom, strength and courage. Dad, your presence is missed but your legacy lives.  Love Todd and Andrea Gross

I miss you dearest Dad. But I am so glad you are making heaven resound with your boistrous laughter! You are forever close to my heart!

Farewell to Thee! But not farewell
To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;
Within my heart they still shall dwell
And they shall cheer and comfort me.
Life seems more sweet that Thou didst live
And men more true Thou wert one;
Nothing is lost that Thou didst give,
Nothing destroyed that Thou hast done.

Dede, I know that you are resting in perfect peace. I remember you everyday and I will forever miss you.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.Amen. To the Family, be at peace & be filled with hope, for he is with thy lord Almighty.

Dr.Nwokorie
I've only known you for a short time but in that short time you taught me some inspiring lifelong lessons. We will meet again my friend(God Willing). Untill then, your wisdom, your meekness, and your smile will forever remain in my heart

"Grandpa,
the best memory I have it is ALL the memories I can think of you. Always smiling, laughing, happy with life! Thats the way I will remember you forever! We miss you,but I know you will always be here, inside our hearts!Love you!Beijos"

Dear Grandpa,
i remember when told me how much you loved me and that you will be here forever and now i understand that you will be here forever in my heart. I love you and even though you will be forever missed you will also be remembered forever.

Happy is the man who found Jesus, when his journey on earth is over, his passing is gain. I have never seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread.

"Dede, I cannot find a word or phrase to describe how I miss you. Your departure has created a vacuum that cannot be filled with anything else. Thank you for preparing us for this with blessings, encouragement and words of wisdom. Rest in Peace"

Daddy, you are missed greatly. Words can't describe the depth with which I miss you. Your love, wisdom and guidance kept me all my years. I am forever grateful to you. I could not have asked for a better daddy. I know heaven is rejoicing over you!
