ForeverMissed
Large image

The sorrow of the faithful is not that of permanent loss but the tender sense of sadness that comes in saying good-bye for now to Kris. May today's sorrow give way to the peace and comfort of God's love.

This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Kris Kanu, 48, born on December 23, 1966 and passed away on April 14, 2015. We will remember him forever.

He is survived by his mother, his wife, his siblings and his two beautiful children.

Oh I just saw the reminder from forever missed. The first post I saw was from your wife and I was touched. It’s a confirmation of who you truly were. You were a good man hence after 9 years your memory is still fresh in our minds. I really hope you made it to heaven so that we can meet again. Always full of joy. Kris I only knew you for a short time but you left a lasting impression. Rest in peace until we meet again. And I am glad to hear that your children are doing well as I tried reaching out but your wife didn’t know me so she didn’t respond.

I am reminded of the countless ways you enriched our lives with warmth, kindness, and love. The memory of you brings light, and though you may no longer walk beside us, you -through our lovely girls, remain a timeless reminder of you as a blessing. Today, I celebrate not only the life you lived but also the enduring legacy you left behind—a legacy of love, strength, and resilience that will continue to inspire us all.

Hey, Chris,

I still short of words, the last time you drove past me in Lagos, I didn’t see you on time, after mentioned you had left your job and going to be working for yourself. I can’t still believe you are late even while typing on your memorial site.
I don’t know what happened to you but God knows, I just wish I had the opportunity to pray with you, something tells me you will still be hear. But God knows best.

May your soul rest in the blossom of the lord.

Hmmmm so painful, what a great loss.

K! The years keep rolling but your memory here on earth never gets rolled away.
It is still a bit difficult to believe you have gone to be with the Lord, counting 6years now.
Well, I do remember you always and I keep praying that our merciful God would remember your good deeds while you were here and in His infinite mercy grant you a peaceful rest until the resurration day when we will all meet to reign with our Lord Jesus Christ and there will be no more death and no more separation.

May you continue to rest in perfect peace!!!

I can't believe it's been 5 years you left this planet. I just hope that your wife and children are keeping well. I tried contacting your wife but wasn't responding, I know you are no more but wanted to extend love to your wife and family. Your sence of humour is forever missed.

Rest in perfect peace in the Lord.

K!, its already 3 years now, yet it feels like yesterday. it is still difficult to accept the fact that you no longer dwell amongst men.
Well! such is the way of the living. We have no choice than to accept the fact.
I pray that the almighty God in His mercy will keep you resting in Perfect Peace until the glorious day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Rest in the Lord, Kris! Rest in the Lord!

K! Today would have marked your 51st birthday but instead of your birthday celebration and prayers for more years, I am praying that you have a sound sleep in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ to wake up along with other sleeping saints on that great day of our Lord, Jesus Christ when we shall all live and reign with Him; to die no more.

Rest in Perfect Peace, K!

My brother and friend, I can't believe it's been two years already you left us! Sometimes I run into people who ask me where you have been. I still struggle with answering that you are no more with us. It's still tough accepting that KK is no more, but we must keep moving on till we meet again. RIP

K, It is already two years now since you went to be with the Lord! Waaoo! The shock and disbelief of this your sudden departure is all still fresh in my heart!! mmmhh! years are indeed nothing but numbers.
I thought of you today as always and made a special prayer for you.

Your period here was really very short but we cannot question God.
You were a nice gentleman with a good heart, I know that no man can ever be perfect in his ways and so I pray once again, 'That the good Lord Jesus Christ, whose Death and Resurrection we are celebrating in this season will not leave your soul in the grave, I pray that you will see His beautiful face at the pearly gate and you would be received into His resting place waiting for His coming back to reign over us all as King'.

K! May your sleep be sound and peaceful until that day, when we all shall meet and reign with Jesus Christ.

Rest! my dear K! and keep resting in the Lord Jesus Christ!!

K!
Today is your birthday, i thought of you specially this day as always. May your soul continue to rest in perfect peace till we meet again at the grand feast of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Asleep, in Jesus! Blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.

Asleep in Jesus! Oh, Kanu Sleep
To be for such a slumber meet,
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost his venomed sting!

Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest,
Whose waking is supremely blest
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour
That manifests the Savior's power.

What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you left, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget...

Over three decades ago, we joked and played around as young lads at the university, without a care in the world. Never could we have imagined that a day as such would come, when I would bid you a last farewell. Such a heart-wrenching pain, KK. Rest in peace my dear friend, till we meet to part no more.

What a Shock

June 10, 2017

It saddens my heart to bump into your memorial message on the Internet. For the short period I knew you all I can remember was your great sence of humour, kind and lovely personality. My mum was also in shock to hear that you've passed away. My husband will also be shocked you had passed on. I have always wanted to meet you and your family and making sure you found your missing rib some day, but at the time I found out was on your memorial page. Kris I have never forgotten about you because you were such a wonderful person, I pray that God will comfort your family of this great lost, I looked forward to meeting your lovely family some day. And I sincerely pray and hope that you are resting in the arm of the Lord. And I pray that whatever that took you from the surface of the Earth at your early age will not take any one henceforth from your family in Jesus Mighty Name Amen. What a life...hmmmmm
