I was who you called your sleeping beauty, and who you also called your mother. Your love life was an inspiration to me and I made sure I found someone who will love me just like you loved grandma, someone I call my best friend just like you called grandma ‘Enyi’. Your spiritual life was an example to me. And now I would like to thank the good Lord above for blessing us with our Grandpa, with his kindness and love.
Dear God, if it is not too much fuss,
take extra special care of our Grandpa, for he is very dear to us. But Grandpa would want us to know he’s in a good place
And that he’s watching us all with a smile on his face, as we have made him so proud, as proud as can be, that he has raised such a beautiful and special family. Thinking back now, I really must say I feel lucky and privileged to have known Grandpa to this day.
For in my life, you have played a special part.
The memories I will treasure and keep close to my heart. Family thanksgivings won’t be the same because you won’t be there. You’re not going to be with us, but you will be forever in our hearts. It’s going to feel like we are
together, but apart. Grandpa, nwoke di uku, onyeisi ezinụlọ, osisi iroko ukwu, ugo di ike, ọdụm siri ike, you will forever be in my heart. Adieu Paapa, till we meet in heaven again. Rest in the bosom of the Mighty One in Heaven. Love always your first grandchild and husband.
