My Pearl, tears drop down my eyes as write my last message to you.
My precious Pearl, volumes of books cannot contain the depth my heart wants to express of our friendship, our love, our aspirations, our goals, our dreams, our marriage, our companionship. You were indeed an angel sent by God to my life. My ever smiling and peaceful wife.
Though we were married for just 7 years but the experiences we share are more than several decades. You always told me, let the love we share bless the world. I always told you that my responsibility was to make you happy and love you till the last breath.
You were the most wonderful person I ever encountered in my life. You were very peaceful, loving and easy going. You were the most decent Christian I've ever related with. Your heart was always to please God. You were very patient, always believing in God's perfect timing. You were very intelligent and smart. You were very realistic yet hopeful.
Ooo you were so sacrificial, always making people's needs your own. You would not see a naked or poorly dressed child and look away. You would not keep food in the store when you have knowledge of a hungry neighbor or church member. You believed in reaching the world through the individuals we see everyday.
As my wife, you were my soulmate, my best friend, my companion, my counselor, my lover, my prayer partner, my intercessor. You never mounted any form of negative pressure on me. You were a constant source of motivation and encouragement. I always loved impressing you to get your usual praises and compliments. Though we are both doctors, you were very loyal and respectful, always sliding your plans under mine even when I tried to bring them out.
For 7 years of marriage you honoured me with every fiber of your being until your last breath.
You gave me the best 7 years of my life. We had beautiful plans as regards career, finances, housing, charity, service to God and life generally. We had plans of how we would raise the kids. Little did I know God will take back His angel from me so soon.
You taught me to always appreciate people and praise their little efforts. You taught me love, patience and tolerance. You taught me focus and determination. You always believed in me and my dreams. Though, you are gone, I will forever cherish every single moment of joy, dancing, eating, drinking, working-out, making love, singing, praying and playing we shared.
Your legacies will live on.
Till we meet again.
Darah loves you.
Dikan loves you.
Disah loves you.
I love you Pearl.
