Wagi was my best friend. She was very honest, lovely, energetic, supportive, disciplined and honorable sister: the best example of what a sibling should be. We were all blessed by her life, and we will always miss her. Eyassu Gayim

I knew Wagaye since 1966. We went to the same High School - Commercial School in Addis Abba Ehiopia. Even though we went our separate ways after graduation, I remember Wagaye as being kind, articulate, engaging and very friendly. She will be greatly missed but she will be in our hearts forever. May she rest in peace and God bless her soul.

Our dear sister will be remembered for her smile, kindness, humility and warmth as a mother, sister and true friend to who ever she comes to know. She was a selfless person who dedicate her whole life to the well being and upbringing of her beloved children. She will be missed very much. God bless her soul.

Since I first met Wagaye I was so impressed with her quiet sense of confidence and security in her relationship with Jesus Christ. She inspired me and made me more complete with her model and example of the virtuous woman of Proverbs 31. Wagaye lives on in each life she has touched during her 59 years - we are indeed a better person for having known her.

My friend Wagaye

Every time you see Abiy I see my Friend Wagaye in Abiy’s face,  his smile and laugh is Wagaye’s smile and laugh; her heart is beating in Abiy’s heart…
In all our Family Gatherings I see my Friend Wagaye sitting and moving among us; hugging and kissing us, our children, and grandchildren.
I know I’ll always be with My Friend Wagaye because she is still here on earth with me and she is also in heaven waiting for me……I Love You Wagaye, thank you for being My Friend….

Hi Wagi/Tomiye,

Your spirit is still with me.  To comfort myself, I started to look through the pile of my old letters and pictures and I found this picture with your son Abiy that you sent me.  You were thrilled and happy.  I am adding the picture to your album.

So many memories, I cannot take you off my mind.

Your Friend, Ethiopis
