Big bro Jackson you will be missed. Such a dedicated Pemexan. My deepest condolences to the entire family. Your Kids
will be taken care of. May your gentle soul RIP forever Amen.

July 24, 2014

After reading this story I am compelled to write that the true God understands how it feels to loose a love one. He had his feeling about the death of Jesus expressed at Matthew 27:45-54. No matter who we are death causes indescribable pain, but it is good we have a Heavenly Father who can sympathize with us and provide comfort and hope. Look at Revelation 21:3-4 do away with all things that cause pain; John 5:28-29 resurrect our love ones: Ecclesiastes 9:5,10 no pain in death; Isaiah 45:18 earth created to be inhabited forever; Psalms 37: 3,8,11,28-29,37,40 (actually the whole song, but these are some of my favorite verses in this song for comfort when I lost my love one in death) My purpose and my prayer is that you find comfort, strength, and hope by turning to the Author of the Bible, our Heavenly Father, Jehovah. (2Timothy 3:14-17; Matthew 6:9; Psalm 83:18

July 23, 2014

Brother, it is very sad to deal with the fact that you did not live your three scores and ten, because the Good Lord called you too early. But who are we to qusetion his decisions. To the family and friends, I hope God strengthens you through this difficult time. I hope you do not loose faith either. May his early passing be a blessing for the entire Atanga family. May he rest in peace (RIP)

July 23, 2014

Dear Brother Jackson, it HURTS to say goodbye. When I got news about your illness, I made prayer request for you in our congregation, we prayed and fast. Truly God knows why. We have missed someone in the family. Only in God is your soul at rest.

July 23, 2014

All my prayers for your family, separation is always very sad. RIP.

July 22, 2014

To the Atanga Family, and especially to my dear friend, Therese: Please accept my sincere sympathy. May Jackson's soul find rest in the Lord's bosom. May the Lord grant you all the strength you need at this time to go through this terrible tragedy. He is your strength. Our prayers are with you always.

July 22, 2014

To the Atanga Family,
"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27. No words can really help ease your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May the peace that comes from your memories comfort you in the days ahead.

July 22, 2014

I was speechless upon hearing the news. It is truly a blessing to know that you are in the hands of the "Master", walking with the Saints of God. You have heard the Words " Well Done my good and faithful servant, come on up and take you place in Heaven" I will miss you my friend and co-worker. Forever Resting in His Arms!

July 22, 2014

It Is Hard To Believe That “My Chango" DJ Is Gone And Why Does a Tragic Thing Like This Happen To Such a Good And Cautious person ? HowEver, Let Us not Question God Because Its The Lord's Doing rather, Let Us Thank God For His Life. Ma-do (Doris), Shakeen, Banyong, Janelle And Entire Atanga family, I Pray The Almighty Gives You All The Grace And Courage To Bare This Loss. RIP
Daddy Jack Forever!!!

July 21, 2014

July 21, 2014

July 21, 2014

Daddy Jack, we head of your sudden attack little could we imagine you were... as we put you and Ma Dor in our prayers. We recall you during this period,(Father of All).
Ah no!!! this sms early that faithful morning which i read repeatedly, not understanding, then i rushed to read it with my Aunt again. No this is not true!!! But the message was clear you were gone to rest in the Lord's house. We must lean this, and be on our guard always and without any fear.
We will leave with you forever in our mist.
ADIEU!

We will miss you. Be at peace for your soul shall rest in peace!

RIP brother. We where talking and you suddenly answered to the Lord's call. No, time to say bye brother? We all celebrated when you answer to His duty on earth. Now tears are running down my eyes cause I can't. see nor talk to you anymore. Jackson, called to duty rest in duty. Now cannot smell the flowers that is offered. I'm glad, you did smell that offered when ordained as a pastor. To GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!

July 19, 2014

My dear brother Jackson, your departure has left a gaping hole in our lives. Thank you for always being the thread that stitched and held the family together. We will miss your calm demeanor, exemplary leadership, and goodwill toward people in general- just like the good book says. May the Lord’s angels accept you with wide open arms (or wings!). Farewell my dear brother.

This is very difficult news to comprehend. May your soul rest in peace, your memory still lives on. May the Lord put a blanket of comfort over your family at this time. Rest in Peace.

July 18, 2014

Brother Jackson Atanga, I received with deafening shock the news of your passing away. Especially those of us who spent a good part of our lives with you in PSS Mankon, this will continue to jab us from time to time and reminding us about the fickleness of life. We will pray for the repose of your soul and that the Almighty should give your wife, your KIDS, and brothers the strength to withstand this great loss. Adieu my brother and friend Jackson!

July 18, 2014

Jackson, in you was a carbon copy of your dear Dad. A replica of hardwork, passion for endeavor, intelligence and dedication to loved ones. The Almighty has decided to call you so soon to a better place. Rest in peace, and may your inspiring and positive examples of love, peace, Godliness, hardwork, and dedication to family continue to live with us as part of your legacy.

July 18, 2014

At times like this we can only be grateful to God Almighty for his mercies. He gives life and he takes it at his own appointed time. Dear Brother Jackson we will all miss you. May the Good Lord grant the entire family and friends the fortitude to bear the loss. Farewell brother and may your soul rest in perfect peace

July 18, 2014

He is gone.

You can shed tears that he is gone
Or you can smile because he has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him
Or you can be full of the love that you shared
You can turn back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
You can remember him and only that he is gone
Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
Pa you will always remain fresh in our memories though you are gone.

July 18, 2014

Oh fellow Pexs! our most precious roses seem to be withering so swiftly. What a pain in our souls;yet somehow I feel that the Good Lord who gave them to us Knows best. He plans our ways and controls every thing yes he knows it all. As he has created this void, HE alone knows best how to fill it. May our dear big bro,
Jackson rest in perfect peace. Be strong Doris, Elise ,Therese and the entire Atanga family. Let God's Will be done,AMEN

July 18, 2014

Daddy Jack,
You were endeared by everybody because of your simplicity , candor and jovial nature.
Thank you for making such a diference in so many lives , and may your legacy inspire us to be lights in the lives of others as you were to ours.
Only God knows His ways.
Only non believers question His actions.
We loved you, but He loved you more.
Rest in peace Daddy Jack ... untill we meet to part no more.

July 18, 2014

July 17, 2014

Jack my brother, sure you are resting! Resting indeed from all the Wahala of this world. I am waiting for your instructions like a father would give his daughter when leaving home. Those sweet and loving words from you that sooth the soul always.I remember the wonderful words of encouragement you gave me when i was elected an Elder a couple of months ago.You said, " anybody who has chosen to serve God, is on the right path." We prayed like never before for God to restore your health. I still thank God for He has, not only the final say, but a better one. I thank you for choosing the right path and actually dying in active service! This is another reminder to us who are still here, that our times are in God"s Hands. You will forever be in our hearts! RIP

July 17, 2014

I truly regret not keeping in touch. I have very fond memories of our time in Buea and in PSS. You will be dearly missed. May your soul rest in peace. I can only hope your friends and family can find some peace in the fact that God´s will is the best and you are in a better place.

July 17, 2014

Jackson, day by day I think of you,
How can all of this be true?
I can't believe you're really gone,
I still can't accept it,
I hope to wake-up soon from this nightmare.
Just the thought of you makes me cry,
I never even got the chance to say goodbye and
you never had the chance to tell us goodbye.
I don't know if it will ever get better.
So many things I never got to say,
I never imagined you'd ever be so far away.
You were my brother-inlaw,
and I loved you like my own brother.
In my heart you'll always be,
You'll be my guide and help me see.
I'll never forget your soothing voice,
But now I have to let you rest,
You were a man of God and you left this world in the house of God.
We miss you with all our hearts,
we wish we never had to part.
We know you're always by our side,
So now we guess this is our goodbye

July 17, 2014

Your leadership, dedication, gentle spirit, respect and regard for even the youngest among us will be remembered. Pemexa WMA will forever cherish your memory. THANK YOU for caring so much. God be with you till we meet again...and we will!

July 17, 2014

Oh Jackson July 12th 2014 was a very sad day for us. There was so much hope for your recovery but the good Lord decided to call you home. What a tremendous loss for us. What an immense void.......You have left some Big Shoes to fill. You will be missed by so many. May you rest in eternal peace until we meet again. We are so heart broken and our hearts bleed. So many questions, not enough answers..........Who are we to question our Almighty Father. We thank Him for your life and the opportunity to have known you. Adieu mon frère! We love you!.

July 17, 2014

Big brother the family will never be the same without you. No words can express the pain. We love you but God loves you best. RIP

July 15, 2014

I have no words...just emotions that can't be expressed through words. R.I.P.

Grand frere you will always be in our minds. May you rest well till we meet someday! RIP!

Pastor J,

You will always be on my mind. I remember two years ago, after wishing you happy birthday and we talked about your birthday dinner, the next day you could not talk to anyone anymore. The Lord is still giving us strength to carry on.

July 12, 2015

We cannot for one moment believe that it is already a year since you transitioned. The wound is still very fresh, but we believe that you are happy where you are and looking over us from day to day. Ma Esther cannot forget the good times and thinks of you and prays for you. What else can we mortals say other than to thank the almighty for the short time you had with us. May your journey be made easy until we meet again.

Daddy Jack,

It's hard to believe that you are gone. I last heard your voice on your Birthday and that was it. It's a year since the painful journey started, the tears have never dried up. Crying you a river will never bring you back but the work you left behind is speaking for you.

Even though I miss you here on earth, my comfort is that you left in an amazing way to a place that God kept for you. Your steadfastness has taken you through the "eye of the needle"

Will always miss you till the day I shall meet to part no more.

Forever DJ

Happy Birthday Jack!

It has been a year since I got the news of your sudden collapse in Church. We hoped for the best but God had a better plan. You moved on to continue to do God's work; what you loved and what he ordained you for. Jack, memories of our times together are still very fresh in my mind and your wise words continue to uplift my spirit during difficult times. You were a real brother!

You are close to our hearts as we celebrate your birthday.

Happy Birthday, Bro!
