Celebrating the life of a legend

Papa, permit me celebrate your life on behalf of Mbacham N, Shalom N and Cindy N your grand children. There is a Ndangoh's family today because of you. We call you a great legend, our icon, our pace-setter, our role model. You are the chariot of the Ndangoh's family. You have instilled in us virtues that will live with us forever.

We can say with all confidence that life is ephemeral but you never lived your life like a candle in the wind. Your arms has been strong enough to hold the entire Ndangoh's family. Your shoulders have been big enough to support us as we stumble in the storms of live. You raise us up so we can stand on mountains. You raise us up to walk on stormy seas. We felt strong when we cry on your shoulders. With a gentle heart, you rebuke and forgive. What could we have done without you.

Papa, we often have to remind ourselves that you are gone. In as much as we want to forget you that is how alive you are in our hearts. We can never stop feeling your presence. Your laughter, smiles, rebuke, sense of humour, truthfulness is what we are left with.

In as much as we are mourning you, we are also happy. We are smiling because we know that you are in heaven, you ran your race and you finished it. We also know that no one can ever take your place. Adieu papa!!!!!
