Give thanks in all circumstances.

I thank God for your beautiful life.
I thank God for the cherished memories.
I thank God for blessing me with you as my mother.
I thank God for you.

Through the tears, I know you gave me the strength to face life without you. I thank God for the lessons learned and the faith in knowing that ALL IS WELL.

I know you smile down on me and I can hear you whisper “she is doing good”.

Another year has gone by and you are GREATLY missed. But in all we do, you are at the center of it all. You live on in the beautiful legacy of your children and grandchildren.

Because of you, I am. Continue to rest in perfect peace sweet mother.

Another Mother’s Day without you to celebrate. It was very difficult watching others celebrate their mother. I miss you terribly. My comfort is the little arms that hug me tie when I get said. Your grandchildren keep your memory alive with all the random grandma stories. Because of you, we are. It is well.

   Two years ago my life took an unimaginable turn.
Your passing brought a lot into clarity. Everyone took a turn that you would never have imagined.
  Everyone changed, everyone looked at the picture differently, every interpretation was different and everyone understood it uniquely.
 It’s a lot I want to ask you, a lot that I want to say to you, a lot of unanswered questions. WE MISS YOU SO MUCH. WE LOVE YOU. WE SEE OUR BLESSINGS POURING. Thank you!

It might take us eternity to heal but one thing is certain…

My dearest mother,

Two years already. Wow.

I thank God for your life and cherished memories I was blessed to share with you.

All is well. God’s goodness and grace upon my life is a testimony.

You are missed dearly and I know you continue to watch over me and your grandchildren.

Your legacy lives on.

I miss your warm hugs, our daily check in, your wisdom, and your reassurance that everything will be ok.

It has not been easy but I know God got me.

I am my mother’s daughter.

I love you always and forever.

Happy heavenly Mother’s Day my darling mother

I miss you every day. Days like today is a reminder of your absence. I am learning each day to celebrate the little moments and cherish every hug and cuddle from my boys. Thank you for being an exceptional mother and showing me a mother’s unconditional love and open heart. I continue to be a work in progress.

Because of you, I am. Thank you for the many motherhood lessons. I look back and cherish every memory.

I honor you and celebrate you, my dearest Rémé.

Ps. Your grandchildren are thriving. God is good.

Sleep well. It is well.

Reme it's been a year since you left. Life has not been the same, a lot of things have happened that you would have had absolute control over them. I can say with absolute certainty, there is nobody like you. I realize how much I miss you. You listened and understood everyone. The vacuum you left will never be filled but your memories live on because of who you were.
Rest well Reme....I miss you.

Happy 1st Anniversary Angel Doris

Oh Dearest Rémé,

You are dearly missed. December 6th, 2019 changed my life forever. When you took your last breath, a piece of me died with you. 366 days without you has been extremely difficult. You left without saying goodbye or instructing me on what to do next. Navigating life without your wise counsel has made life difficult. God made all things possible. His Grace is sufficient.

You were the glue that held everything together. I salute you for all the love and care you showed everyone because since you’ve been gone, many people have disappeared. I thank God each day for how you prepare me for the day that you will not be around. Only you dear mother. I appreciate your strength and walking in your shoes is no easy task. You are my superwoman.
You heart of gold cannot be duplicated.

I appreciate the lessons you taught me and I am grateful for you everyday.

Thank you for your genuine and caring heart. Because of who you were, we are blessed with God’s grace and peace.

God has been good to us and we know He will make all things possible.

I miss you everyday and your grandchildren continue to talk about their awesome grandma everyday.

So on this first of life without you, I do not mourn your death but I celebrate your life and the peace and eternal rest I know you have with your Heavenly Father.

It is well sweet mother. I am my mother’s daughter and her legacy.

I am ok and we will be fine. Rest well dear mother.

I love you always and forever

Rèmé... till today I don't know what happened. Today was the day I began to see what was happening... It still feels like yesterday. I still hear you telling me to make sure you get your favorite. I prayed to overcome fear, but dared to hope for His miracle. But God had decided, I have to keep reminding myself of that. "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride." But God had decided. Even in death you continue to impart wisdom, for that I continue to be grateful. Rest well dear mother, rest well.

Happy thanksgiving my dearest mother

A year ago on thanksgiving, I watched you danced to your favorite song and a week later, you gained your wings.

Today, as I watched the video I made of you dancing , you looked so peaceful and with no worries. I am grateful for your life, the lessons you taught me, and how much you loved hosting thanksgiving dinner. You always made sure that everyone showed up, no excuses. Well, 2020 thanksgiving is a lot different. We missed you very much. Your welcoming spirit feeler the house and genuine gratitude and love was shared by your children and grandchildren. You are always with us and we honor you always.

It is well, sweet mother.

Forever our Rémé

Your absence is felt everyday and we miss you so dearly. The wonderful job you did, keeps us strong to face each new day. Your legacy lives on in your beautiful grandchildren who know that their grandma who is in heaven loves them very much and watches over them. I thank you for the lessons you taught me and the strength you gave me to face uncertain days.

I AM PROUDLY MY MOTHER’S DAUGHTER.

Ohh my sweet angel mother,

10 months without you has been a bitter pill to swallow. The Grace of God upon us (husband, children, and grandchildren) has been sufficient. We miss your dearly and pray that you continue to Rest In Peace.

Rémé, thank you for your strength. You taught me well.

We are motherless children and grandchildren miss you everyday. Their comfort is that angel grandma is always watching over them.

Bless you mother.

Mother dearest,

Seven months without you.

With each passing day, my strength grows and I can hear your voice guiding me through this life journey. Today marks are another month without You and Nono’s 4th birthday. As you would have done, we went a little overboard with his birthday celebration. Lots of love and surplus food for all. I know you were smiling down on us. Many lessons have been learned and I thank God for the strength and clarity. Rest well my darling mother. It is well.

6 months gone and I relive each second like it was yesterday. Reme, I still see your smile so clearly in the distance. I didn't understand why then, but I know now. I'm not sure what to do, so I just retreat to myself for now. Waiting for one day at a time to pass but it seems to be taking too long. I know the strength will come but honestly Reme I miss you...especially now, and you know why...Rest well sweet mother.

My Dearest mother,

Five months already since you left us. I saw this poem and I knew I can make it through it all


My Mother kept a garden, A garden of the heart.
She planted all the good things that gave my life its start.
She turned me to the sunshine and encouraged me to dream.
Fostering and nurturing the seeds of self-esteem.
And when the winds and rain came, she protected me enough.
But not too much because she knew I’d need to stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example always taught me right from wrong.
Markers for my pathway that will last a lifetime long.
I am my Mother’s garden.
I am her legacy.
And I hope today she feels the love reflected back from me.

I will continue to honor you all the days of my life.

It is well

It is only by the grace of God that we have survived the past four months. Thank you for the many blessings that you have sent my way. Your absence is greatly felt. There is none like you and there will never be another you. My strength is you and I will not fail.

You are always in my thoughts and I carry you in my heart. You have earned your rest my angel.

My dear sister,i feel helpless, in times like this we will put our heads together and come up with ideas on how to run our show. You left me with the boys and girls to carry on. I am not complaining, but very grateful for having them by my side. I am trying to put into practice all what you taught me. What i did not see coming is what really happened to you, i am still lack of words, speechless and perplexed, not prepared to accept that you are no longer in the land of the living.I am coming to the realization that you are no more. I can no longer hear your voice, i miss the video calls with our grand kids by our side. I miss our private conversations, this is unbearable. What are my going to do ? Show me the way. I know you did not like to bother anyone despite being there for all of us. You showed us your love and unflinching support, but you did not give us the chance to show you how much we cared and loved you back. To you it was okay we did what we could, but to us, we would have done more. Our good lord had a better plan for you, but your legacy will remain forever.

My dear Reme, as the days go by, reality is slowly settling in. Just a few hours before I see you again. This is the hardest and saddest goodbye for me. Please continue watching over us, and fighting for me with your prayers like you always did. Worst thing is you won't be here to see me thrive. Rest well Reme.

My dearest Reme,

I miss you so much especially today on Dylan's birthday. Your daddy is two years old. He is as adventurous as ever and still climbing everything. I miss how you celebrated my children even more than me, it is not the same without you. We had planned on how we were going to celebrate his second birthday. If you were here, you would have made sure he had at least a special birthday meal. Truly, you are gone. I know you are in heaven celebrating him. Thank God for his grace.

Happy Birthday Dylan - Love Grandma

Our Dear Rémé
I am still in shock, I am still to wake up to the reality that you are no more. The kids and I will no more see you again during Christmas holidays. The kids always look forward to your trips to Cameroon as they were sure to receive their beautiful clothes and shoes from Grandma in America. When I told them the sad news they were devastated and asked so many questions that I couldn't answer. Only God knows why you had to leave us at this time. Adieu Mummy and always look up on us with your ever radiant smile.

My darling mother,

On this day (January 17th) many years ago, you became a mother for the first time. Today is Esunge’s birthday. It’s the first of many birthdays without you to be the first person to call and wish “Happy Birthday”. On the day Esunge was born, you became a mother to many children. We thank God for creating your heart so big to love us all unconditionally. May your life be an example to us, on how we should love one another. Thank you for showing me how a mother should love and protect her children. You are greatly missed, dear mother. We pray and ask that you watch over us from heaven. It is well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Esunge- Love Rémé

Love always, your daughter.

My dear Reme, no words can explain the pain I feel. You always wanted the best for me, and never failed to mention that over and over. If only words could bring you back, I will sing your name a million times. There is so much I learned from you about family, generosity, patience and selflessness. These are values I'll carry with me for life. God alone knows all the wonderful things I wished for you. I will try to be brave enough to accept that you're gone, but I know your beautiful spirit is all around me.

My sister, i don't know how else i could address you, b'cos you were mine. i miss our daily calls for each other. It is already obvious, i cannot see, nor hear your voice. I remember how we would sit next to each other in church, parties, and even at home. All that is gone. It is extremely hard. You are already of the past. How can i make sense out of this, all i can say is that you have gone ahead to prepare a room for us in our father's house.

Rémé’s Love

March 13, 2020

Eulogy given at the funeral service of Mrs. Doris N. Mongo on February 29, 2020 in Buea, Cameroon by Doreen Efeti
The Lord is my strength and my shield

I stand before you to pay homage to a great woman who I was blessed to call my mother. A mother’s love is a special kind of love that only God can give a special woman and mother to so many children who called her “Reme”.

Reme’s love as person and a mother is perfectly described in 1 Corinthians 14:4-7.

Her love was patient and kind

She faithfully devoted her life as a life partner to our father.

Her love was not jealous or conceited or proud

Our mother was a simple and humble woman who felt no need to compete with anyone. She lived her life according to her values and her believe in God.

Her love was not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable.

She gave everything she had to her family. If not of her, many of you sitting here in this church today will NOT be the people that you are. So to her, gratitude is owed and she deserves your “thank You” and so much more. May her generous spirit feel you all and may generosity live in your hearts.

Her love did not keep a record of wrongs

My mother left this world with no hatred for anyone. She is at peace. Praise God.

Her love never rejoiced with evil but was always happy with the truth.

My mother was an honest and direct woman.

Her love never gave up.

She unconditionally love her husband and children. Unselfishly love her family.  She was faithful in all things she did.  She hoped for better days with her grandchildren and her patience in all things made her an exceptional woman.

In life or death, her love is FOREVER.

There’s none like our great mother. Her legacy lives on in the love she shared with my father, in the successes of her children, and the bright future of her blessed and precious grandchildren. 

She will forever remain Reme, a woman with a heart of gold. 

I am proud to stand before this church and all who gather here to honor her as her  only daughter.

My mother lived for her family and died for her family.

I am my mother. I am Doris Nanyongo Mongo.

It is Well.

Thanksgiving without you

November 21, 2022
As we approach this thanksgiving holiday without you, it marks the third thanksgiving without your love. You always had a way for bringing all of us together. You were a real definition of "Mother Hen." Honestly, I can't say things have been easy without you. Words can't express my thoughts, but I'm sure you know it all. I miss you so much, and thank you for all you did. Happy thanksgiving my Mbamba Dee.

My dear sister, i refuse to think of you in the past. To me you are not gone. One year ago same time i was by your bedside watching over you, afraid of the unknown, seeing you drifting away. I was confused. I prayed to God, and i wept within me. I tried to stay strong for everyone around me. That dreaded moment finally came, like a bird without wings. You were snatched from us like a hawk does on it's prey.  I screamed and asked God almighty, why me ?. An answer i might only get when we meet in the land beyond, to part no more. The road is rocky. I strongly believe you are at peace, happy anniversary.
October 6, 2020
My dear sister it's been ten months since you left us, i can't even think about it. I lack words to express myself. Taking you away from me has made me asked myself so many questions, some of which i could answer while some are puzzles that you might not be able to answer. "Na timbi ndi motia mbelele". Weya weasre weh wehly ndi naloweh. Have eternal peace, till we meet to part no more.
