Magdalene Enoh

Aunty meg as we fondly called you every thing about you was great especially as it had to do with the level of patience and tolerance you had.you were indeed a pillar for every body to lean on before finding their feets on the ground.you did  all your best to make sure you brought the whole family together.your death came as a big blow but after all i console my self with the fact that you had finished the assignment God gave you to carry out on earth.The reason He had to call you so would not be corrupted by this wicked world of oursAs the saying goes good  things never last.Just like you were the first child of the family on earth ,the same way you are to be the first family child in heaven .Rest In Peace  Aunty Meg untill we meet to part no more.

Sister Meg, that's how i fondly called her. Your departure still puzzles my imaginations that's why i still could not accept that i will see you no more. I spoke to you less than a month ago and i did perceive that you were full of joy and happiness because of the birth of your grand son Sean. I was informed that your heart stopped beating on the 24th of August. I still didnot believe because the news came to me through some one who i haven't talk to for a couple of years. But when i called your phone and i couldn't reach you, i became worried and i called Bessem's number but i didnot speak to her, i became more worried so i called Agei's number and i was directed to the voicemail that was full i couldnot leave a message. I was more than disturbed as i was unable to talk to you or your Children.

 However i kept my faith in God knowing fully well who you are to God Almighty, i was convinced your soul is doing fine and that nothing can happen to you. 

 Now, i  have realised that you have been snatched from us. I believe that it can only be God who wanted you at this time of the year. I am glad because those who die in the lord will live forever.

But at the same time i feel lonely, there is a void in my life because i cannot hear from you any more. Your pieces of advice are what have brought me this far. I came to a close fellowship with God because of you. Sister Meg your death has left an indelible mark in my life and the memories i will live with forever.

 You were always there for me, your financial  support in my course has been without measure. You stood and fought for me especially when i filed in for a student visa to travel to Belgium in 2006. I remember how you scolded at the security personnel of the Belgian embassy because i was refused access in to the waiting room. My success was your preoccupation and i could prove this, when i was finally issued a student visa for a Master program in Belgium i saw the joy in your face and i heard you say finally ..Lewis you are leaving Cameroon and i said yes sister. That same day you drove me to the bus station and you told me safe journey and be careful. I shed tears of joy.

How sad is it that i am shedding tears of a lost heroine who stood for every one in the families of  the Nkonghos and the Enohs and didnot make a distinction between sisters, brothers,cousins you treated all of us with love and care.

  Sister, I am worried whether this gap will ever be filled? Gone too soon.  However, am confident that where you are right now is at the bossom of Our Lord Jesus. Prepare a place for us as you rejoice with Jesus.

  Your Cousin,

 Megalew.

 

Today we say farewell to one of the most effective leaders I have met in my life. I first met Aunty Meg when I was a young boy in 1991 at Mont Febe hotel in Yaounde. It was about 10PM and for some reason my younger brother, Etta and I had no ride to go home following a children’s program hosted by C.R.T.V. My parents had  just had a very serious car accident and our taxi driver failed to pick us up. We were stranded. Without knowing us,  Aunty Meg took us home even though we lived very far out of her way. I remember Mommy telling us to keep praying and that with the Lord, all will be fine. This is the kind of woman we bid farewell to. She was dedicated to selfless service.

She always went above and beyond to help people, always very caring and always very God fearing. Whenever she prayed for me, I had a great sense of calm knowing that all will be fine, just because she prayed.  She is a woman of Virtue. She was true child of God.

13 years later I met Aunty Meg in Connecticut  during Bessem’s graduation in 2004 and reminded her of our earlier encounter and today she is not the just the  good Samaritan who helped two stranded kids. She is my mother-in-law whom I call Mommy for she has always treated me like a son.  She is great role model, a loving Grand Mother to our kids and an effective teacher. She was an inspirational figure.

Aunty Meg, you were the silent leader of the family, being instrumental in sponsoring and making sure many of your siblings went through school and got degrees. You really did understand the phrase “Authority does not come from the barrel of a gun”. You were always very calm and always smiling. You always served the Lord with all your heart and while your sudden call to Heaven is very painful to me, I am comforted by the fact that you were always ready for the Lord. The vacuum you leave behind will never be filled. We will miss you Mommy Meg dearly. May your soul rest in eternal peace.

Ashu Oben

Bessem, Mbei, Agei and Ashu, I am terribly sorry for your loss. Your mom and mother-in-law was a very kind hearted person who always had a smile on her face. I only met your mom twice but both times she made an impact. I cannot even imagine what you are going through, but I know you trust the Lord will guide you through it. We will keep you in our prayers trusting that she is in a better place.

 

 Tribute to Aunty Meg

Proverbs 31 verse 28 says of the Virtuous woman, "Her children arise and call her blessed, her husband also praises her" This is the picture of you that sticks to my mind, of a lady who found joy and fulfillment in being a wife and a mother. Our Friday prayer group was enriched by your special insight into the Word of God and your experiences. It is during this hour of prayer that we could see the things that really bothered and worried you, for you would pray with such passion and energy, contrary to your usually gentle and mild disposition. Oh Aunty Meg, it is hard to imagine that you are truely gone. We will continue to keep the prayer flag flying as we continue your prayer assignment for Uncle J.C, Mbei, Bessem, Agei and your grandkids. Adieu Aunty Meg

Dearest Eldest Sister,

 

How can I believe or accept the fact that I will miss you for ever? So it is true Sis, that you are gone. Remember when I came to your house after I had my Baccalaureate without informing you I was coming to stay. You received me with open arms. You led me to Christ and my whole life became a new one. You made me discover the hidden talents I was carrying in praise and worship. Do you still remember the day Maranatha Baptist church was holding its first service in the house? There was no song leader. You turned to me and asked me to lead in songs. I thought you were joking because I had never sang before in any congregation. After the service, I was looking for a place to hide when I suddenly bumped into you, you smiled at me and said I did a good job. Before long I was the song leader for Maranatha Baptist Church until I travelled to the US. Thank you for changing my life. I also thank God for giving me the opportunity to have such an angel like you for a sister. You will forever remain in my heart. I love you very much. May your soul RIP.

Nkongho Gladys

Aunty Meg, Grande seour, truly I now know that you are gone. I have not heard

from you again. You called me so often and we discussed. I have tried calling you, but

each time I called I only hear cries of people in the house. So truly it is ended? But what

a journey? A journey without return? You went for a mission to visit your children and the newly

born baby, your grand son. What a mission!!. A mission without return? Or should I

say “mission accompli” you went with plenty of joy and from our conversation and

the pictures i saw there was plenty of happiness as you carried your grand son and

conversed with your children and family friends. Was that the celebration of “mission

accompli”

 

I take this as the greatest blow I have ever received in my life. Yes aunty meg has been

knocked down at full flight as the French put it “abattu en plein vol” death has knocked

you down and knocked you out of the love you had and shared with your family, with

all those who had encountered you even for the first time. Knocked down and knocked

out of your many dreams and determinations. Your plans for the church, Your PhD program, the well being of your family members…….what a loss! The tree that shades the forest is no more. the boma tree has fallen. where will all the creatures that use to benefit from shelter, protection, go to? . Oh the mother hen has been devoured in her tireless quest to fend for the chicks. the apple of my eye has been plucked. With whom shall I so conveniently interact, discuss, dialogue, understand, work, liaise and function again? My role model, my icon sister, thank you for your love and care to us. thank you for educating us and for being part of our success story. All of us who passed through your hands are successful people today meaning your work is completed “mission accompli” we thank God for your short, spicy and fulfilled life. You corroborated so well the famous song writer Anna Louisa cog hill who in one of her songs says “work for the night is coming, work through the sunny noon, fill brightest hours with labour, rest comes sure and soon. Give to each flying minute something to keep in store. work for the night is coming when man works no more”. You have run a good race, you have run the full distance and you have kept the faith

2 Tim4:7. Thank God . Go, go and rest sister, you have accomplished your mission here on earth. Let death not be foolish to think he is victorous. Death has no power over a fervent servant of the

most High God. Go for your crown , the prize for having been put right with God. Thank

you Lord for being merciful to her. Open the heavenly gates where all the righteous go that she may go in and thank the Lord. Aunty Jackie, Junior Epey, Favour, Naomi, Ako Triumph, Jr. Andrew, Ebob, Ma- nchung, Scolar, Bechem, Ekwa and wife Sophie, Sister Maria and daughter Eting join me to say we love you but

God loves you most and we can’t out love the Lord.

 

Fare well, and aurevoir.

                                     IT IS HARD TO SAY ADIEU AUNTY MEG

I imagine your delightful smile when I close my eyes, your voice filled with a lyrical quality reflecting your enthusisasm and care.The question will remain forever...WHY?...so sudden? so fast?

Life is actually not how long we live it but how well we live it,what we contribued to life,the value we brought to the essence of living,and the totality of our deeds during our sojourn here.For Aunty Meg hers is an embodiment of a good and worthwhile life,which impacted the lives of others.

My strongest memory of Aunty Meg is  the period I spent at your house in Yaounde recovering from several surgical procedures after a ghastly car accident .You were always there for me Aunty Meg, with a smile, and words of encouragement,making sure I was comfortable and reassuring me all will be fine.  

Your commitment to serving God need not be emphasised.This is easily noticed by the number of Baptist churches you and your husband,my brother John, were instumental in planting around Yaounde.The last of these churches actually started in your residence and continued there for a while with services and christian meetings until a church house was built.

 Aunty Meg it is painful to say goodbye but God alone knows why you were called home so soon. 

Dear Uncle John, Bess, Agei, and Mbei your mother/wife, our aunty Mag, was an extraordinary woman of excellence. A woman who feared the Lord & dedicated her life to His work. I remember her beautiful smile, from back in our days as neighbours at Anguissa, Y'de. Aunty was such a sweet, warm open hearted person. No words can fathom the pain you are experiencing. Aunty will surely be missed. God's purpose for her has been achieved. To Bess, Mbei & Agei, be comforted. When God sees a breach, He builds a bridge. When He sees a scar, He creates a star. God is in control. To Uncle John & the rest of the family, we will not look at what or whom we have lost, because what is the cross? It is a minus, turned into a plus. And Heaven rejoices, for a new angel has joined them. Aunty Mag's soul lives on. May you rest in His eternal bossom with peace Aunty Mag. We Love you, & we miss you.

 

Yvonne Ndeh. 

Everything about your short life  was extraordinary. At record time you climed to the top of the academic ladder. At record time you gave us three charming and intelligent children and at a record time you impacted the lives of so many. For us you were the first ENO girl to whom all the other four girls looked up to for leadership. We will miss you for as long as we live but we take solace from the fact that you lived a life of purpose and served as a channel for the enhancement of God's Kingdom.

  

Aunty MEG May your soul rest in perfect peace.

 

Arah Eno / Joseph SOLEE.

I will never forget the day I first met Aunty Meg. I was invited to Mbei’s birthday diner celebration last summer 2009. I remember being so nervous to meet the woman who raised the honorable man Mbei is today. I didn’t know if I should shake your hand or kiss, but you open your arms and welcomed me with your brightest smile. I remember sharing laughs with you, going shopping with you, cooking with you. Oh how I wished we had the chance to do so much more together! I was amazed by your grace. As we got to know each other a little more, you always encouraged me to persevere in my PhD research, just like you did. I was impressed by the ways you brought God in every conversation and how you always gave the glory back to Him. I know that our Lord Jesus Christ is pleased by the works you have done on this earth. You have touched and influenced many of us and I know your legacy will continue to do so. Thank you for making me feel at ease around your family and for being so kind to me. May you rest in peace.

My Dear Aunty Meg,

 

You always had a good wishes for me. Every memory I have of you involves you helping me in some way; Either through advice, or just raising me. From the days of my childhood, when my mother had to send me over to Cameroon, you took me in. You took me in with all the kindness and love in the world, I felt like part of the family and I still do to this day. I remember, Agei had told me that an apple tree would grow on my head because I kept swallowing the seeds and I came to you worried for my health and you laughed kindly and smiled and assured me everything was well. I think you were also preparing something delicious at the time.  I am so glad that I got to see you on the July 4^th weekend. Who knew that that would be our last acquaintance? As always, you told me to stay in school and to be more serious with my studies but this time I could tell that there was no lack of seriousness when you said it. I knew you believed in me. And those moments of advice mean even more to me now. It is very sad to have lost you like this. You were truly a source of happiness, wisdom, and just plain goodness, and it rubbed off on all the people you met. Thank you for everything Aunty Meg. You will always be in my heart.

 

Jr T

Bessem and Family,

Take heart. I was not fortunate to personally meet your mum but I noticed her during saker visits and graduation and most especially when Bessem told me I have the same birthday (June 3rd) as  her mum. Looking through the gallery, I noticed something.. she showed her teeth in all the pictures. Thank God for the lives she touched and the memories she has left behind. Your Dad's message was so touching, is sad when a man says, "I cannot stop crying,"  but God loved her more. Accept my deepest sympathy during this difficult time.

Your Mum is in a better place.

 

Emenge

At 1:47 pm on Tuesday August 24^th, I was told that my mother’s heart had stopped beating.  This has officially become the worst day of my life.  It started just like any other day; I arrived work around 8:30am, had my cup of coffee, and began my work for the day.  Who knew that less than 6 hours later, Mommy would be no more?

However sudden your departure was, this summer was our dream summer because it was our last summer together and it was very exhilarating for you and us as your children.  When you witnessed the birth of a new grandson Sean Chu Oben, I was with you in the hospital and I saw your eyes light up and you actually jumped for joy.   You were very excited about your role as a grandma and every time I visited, you were taking care of Sean and JP.  You also helped me to pick out a home this summer and you remained involved throughout the entire process and even accompanied me to several house showings.  Even though you are not around to see me move in, we shared this process together, and for that I am truly grateful.  Furthermore, you were front and center at the EXSSA convention in Houston this August.  You were involved in all the activities, and you were so excited when your team won the choir competition.  On this day you looked particularly lovely, and I remember that one hour prior to the gala, you were poised to go; not to the convention, but to shop for a new pair of shoes to match your outfit.  My Mom WAS a classy lady and one thing about her is that she loved to shop.  We used to joke about how she would carry everything in the store including sponges with her back to Cameroon if not for the luggage weight limits. 

My memories of you were as an ever smiling, classy and beautiful lady.  Your smile lit up the room, and your spirit touched all who were fortunate to know you. You made friends with everyone you met, and everyone who knew you had nothing but nice things to say about you.  If the measure of a person is how many people they touched, then you were a giantess.  You have left a hole in my heart that will never be filled.  I love you and will continue to miss you until we meet again.

Hi Meg,

 

This is how I fondly called you most of the time, and sometimes mommy. Many may not know that I gave you the pet name Meg, shortly after we met at the University of Yaounde in May 1975. Indeed, when you told me your name is Magdalene, I preferred to call you Meg and that name stuck ever since.

 

It was love at first sight. I was first attracted to you because of your physical beauty and when we met, I got stuck to you because of your loving, caring, soft and tender nature. Furthermore, when you told me that one of the papers you passed in at GCE Advanced Level includes Mathematics, a rare fit for girls in those days and maybe even today, I prayed to God that He bless me to be able to have you, with a rare combination of beauty, intelligence and gentleness as my future wife.

 

The good Lord answered my prayers because we obtained parental consent to become husband and wife before you left for the United States in January 1978 to join me at the University of Connecticut in Storrs. I believe our union was ordained by God Almighty because as I often told you the story that sometime in 1972 during my one year stint as a teacher in St Joseph’s College Sasse about two years before I met you, my late maternal uncle Adolf Ngoh and I met your dad, pa Andrew Epey Nkongho of blessed memory in Buea. He offered drinks to all who were present at the location and entertained us with the story of this very special and intelligent daughter of his, a student at Saker Baptist College. When I expressed my desire to him of meeting that daughter of his, he turned to me and gave me a real good look, and I imagined him saying to himself, what boldness! Yes, by divine design, I got to meet you about two years later. We have spent our lives together ever since our first meeting in 1975 until that fateful Tuesday August 24^th 2010 when by His divine decision, you were suddenly separated from me.

 

Indeed, I wish I had listened to you when on the 10^th of August 2010 you expressed the desire to return home because as you said, you miss your home because you had been away since the end of May. I encouraged you to stay and undergo what by all accounts is considered minor surgery before you return. This decision I will regret for the rest of my life because on that morning of Wednesday August 11^th 2010, you were ready to leave Houston and when we spoke, you had already packed your bags and were out with your daughter doing your last minute shopping. As always, you listened to me and decided to postpone your departure in order to undergo that surgery.

 

You were discharged from the hospital and were convalescing at your daughter’s home. We spoke several times after you left the hospital. The last time we spoke was on Sunday the 22^nd of August 2010. There was no sign during our conversation on Sunday that you were going to be readmitted to that same hospital that same Sunday in the evening after we spoke. I called again Monday evening the 23^rd, but my call went to your voice mail. I tried again on Tuesday the 24^th of August but still could not get you. It was at 4:30 pm on that fateful Tuesday that I read our daughter’s message informing me that she had taken you back to the hospital either that Sunday evening or Monday morning because in her own words, ‘you were not doing too good’. Before I could call her back, our son Mbei called to inform me that you were in intensive care! This was about 6pm. About two hours later, I got the shocking news from Mbei that you had passed unto Glory! What a shock this was to me. Indeed, I am still in a state of shock and I can not stop crying.

 

However, I am consoled because you were a woman after God’s own heart. As your husband and closest friend for over 35 years, I saw you and can attest to the fact that you prepared yourself for eternal life everyday!

 

Indeed, your life here on earth and your death are perfect testimonies of God’s word to all who still have to believe.

 

You were a very caring and wonderful mother to our children, a faithful, peaceful, forgiving and loving wife to me and my entire family, and a conscientious and devoted teacher and Christian leader who influenced many lives.  

 

I pray that the children and I, your loved ones and all who knew you emulate your examples of faith, spirituality, love and gentleness.

 

May your soul rest in perfect peace till we meet to part no more!

Your husband,

JC

My, my, my, Sister Meg.

So you have left us so suddenly? Words cannot express the anguish my family and I feel. Remember how you cared for my children while they were in Yaounde at your residence a few years back? That was a gesture that was your hallmark: your doors were always open to all. You have been the foundation to so many relatives and friends and impacted their lives in a positive way. Your genteel manner and christian lifestyle were outstanding. We miss you, but God knows better. Please know that we can't and won't forget you. We will meet some day never to part any more. May your soul rest in perfect peace. Amen.

 

Dr. Manfred and Catherine Enoh (on behalf of the family).

My mother, my dearest mother, how hard it is for a child to lose a mother. I have very fresh memories of growing up with...the reassuring smile, the gentle touch, you holding me close to your bosom comforting me when I was in tears, you taking care of me when I was sick, I remember following you everywhere you went, and blushing every time your friends called me mommy’s little boy. Your sweet voice calling me “Geigei” making my heart warm. I can still remember your tears when you saw me off to boarding school and the joy in your eyes as I looked out the bus window upon returning from a long semester. You saw me through successes, and failures. You groomed me into a respectable young man. You brought me to Christ. You taught me to wait on the Lord and pray about everything. You always checked on me even when I was older. Like a mother would for a child you would always bring me a gift on your way back from work even when I was a grown man. Now you are gone. But your values will forever remain ingrained in my memory. How I wish you could be around much longer, to see me through that graduation, that wedding, that first child, that baptism... (God knows best). You gave me all I need to move on. I know you are proud of me, so I will keep going. I will continue to push forward mommy to keep your legacy alive in my life and in the life of my children. I love you and I know I will see you again.

Tribute to a woman of substance; a mentor; a role model and a sister-in-law
Aunty Meg,
Shock, despair, perplexity and pain cannot describe the way I felt when I received that horrible phone call announcing your death.  My reaction was that of unbelief, because you told me you were going to the US to see the children as usual and to be back in September. It was not to be brought back to Cameroon like a package. Well, I belief that “good women die; but will live on.” All I can say is that your modesty, decency, and spiritual comportment were too much for the world to contain you longer. So I believe you had to go to where you belong. I thank God for your life on earth and all what you had accomplished.
Aunty Meg, I will miss you and those glorious moments we used to have together, discussing things of God and of the world. You always called me “Aunty eee”, which made me feel loved. I would say you were a lily of the valley and a rose with tender thorns that soothed souls. Your radiant smiles and good humour brought solace to so many aching souls. We miss you in our midst. I believe as you also did that Jesus Christ wants you to be with Him to perform and intercede for us. You were the real woman of God so please keep praying for us all; and one day, we shall meet to part no more.
Adieu Great Woman of God.
Aunty Sally Vega.

Dear Aunty,
I can remember 1985 when I was a child and you came to Kumba for Christmas. I noticed your smile. So many memories of you since then are filling my mind right now but the one I remember most is that smile. You smiled through life and I will remember it forever. We loved you but it has pleased the Lord to take you home, so I thank God for a life well spent. Rest in perfect peace.
Love,
Arrah.

Dear Antie Meg,

It's so sad that you have to leave us so soon. I still have a fresh memory for each instance during the few times that me met. This is because i appreciate you and was getting to enjoy you subtil sense of humor and also we're getting to know each other. During our last phone  conversation while wishing you a safe journey back to Cameroon, its so painful to picture it as the last conversation now that you are not there anymore, you transmitted then over the phone once again that positive vibe as you always did. My believe is that you are in a better place now, but just understand you'll be missed for many and many years to come and even Dubè now growing up, will miss you.

Your "Beau-frère", Jean Homb

My dear sister Meg,

You have been such a big part of my life; I cannot imagine what life will be like without you. You have been the master planner of the family, the star, the light and above all, a great inspiration. My most beautiful and intelligent sister, full of life and love, you’ve made me the woman I’m today, I still can’t believe you are gone. You have left us in so much pain and confusion, i didn’t even have the chance to say goodbye, I’m heartbroken, I can’t stop asking why. ..Sister Meg, you will always be in my memories and i will love you forever. Although I know you are in a better place, I can’t stop asking; Why did you leave us so soon, Sister Meg, why, why?

Catherine Nkongho (sister)

MY DEAREST MOTHER I remember each and every vacation the laughs and joys, The smiles, yes the smiles, yours of all the greatest and fullest, You never frowned, acted like there was no time for that, Then you will sing, giving thanks to God for everything that happened (good or bad) That I will cherish until death takes me away as well, I recall last summer feels like days ago, I was confused and beaten down, Felt like I could never get to where I wanted to be (Doctor) Then you talked to me feeling my heart with hope and courage Those words of comfort, love and strength that enveloped me, ‘’Do not give up Chu, do not give up, your namesake wouldn’t’’ Look at me now MUMMY am strong again, am strong again, I know you are not dead you are alive in me, And each day I push forward in medicine I dedicate it to you, Mum do you recall when you asked me if I pray, Remember I said yes, but you meant do I pray all the time, I am getting there I want to be as strong and tough as you, Why did you have to leave, no heads up, nor warning I guess it all happens for a reason as you always said, Yes for a reason Mummy. John Chu (Son)

 

Our “Princess Diana” Takes Her Majestic Walk Into The Gates of Heaven

A Tribute to a Phenomenal Woman

 

Your presence filled the room with a healing compassion and your radiant beauty and smile carried a magic that transformed your family, friends and colleagues alike.

Aunty Meg, your dedication was unprecedented, and everyone around you felt an inch taller from the brilliance and beauty of your smile, grace, love, and compassion that flowed from the heart of a true Princess.

What a blessing your life has been to all those whom you have touched with your regal dignity, poise, and peaceful decorum.  You were an ardent humanitarian, a dedicated wife and mother, an avid Sakerette but most importantly a formidable Christian. You towered where mankind cowered and left an indelible presence in our spirits, and for that we salute you!

The angels have embraced you and heaven is blessed today because you are welcome home.

Today, for those who only came to know you much later and those who had always known your grace and peaceful nature, may we all remember that you lived not only the length of your life but the breadth as well.  The life in your years will remain exponential, for your kindness to others will live forever.

Two weeks ago we had a rendez-vous in Yaounde but little did we know that you had a bigger rendez-vous in heaven. That conversation is etched in my memory forever. The news was shocking and piercing. As always, God’s call never goes unanswered.

So now, what do we say to Agei, Bessem, Mbei and Uncle John?  Yes, there will be sporadic tears and questions and missing you for a very long time.  However, the angels will pick those tears and take them to heaven so your face can shine again with the brilliance that your mother Meg has left for you on earth.

You raised your children with dignity and poise, and through your children, God has rewarded you abundantly for you have served him as a faithful servant. They will proudly carry on your legacy and disposition forever.

For you Princess Meg, is there any wonder why “Princess Diana” left us so early? We see you are kindred spirits and you were not meant to tarnish with gray and wrinkles of age on earth.  So today, the angels will roll out the red carpet as our “Princess Meg” glides majestically back into heaven, from whence she came.  Weep not for her!!!!!!!!

 

With Love,

From:  Dr. & Mrs. Ebenezer Tayui

 

 

AN ANGEL IS CALLED TO HEAVEN WHERE SHE BELONGS

You were an angel amongst us and we did not miss it, but pondered at the magnitude of your grace and dignity.  The kindness of your spirit and brilliance of your smile was a beacon light.  Your radiance that shone from within was enough for many to seek solace, yet did not understand you were an angel amongst us.

You brought blessings, you brought pride, you were an intellectual giant, yet a humble spirit to the core and we will continue to bless your name for we have been touched by an angel and now realize how extraordinary it is.

Just being with you Meg, turns an ordinary day into an adventure of faith, love and the abundance of God’s presence.  You have left a vacuum that no one can fill, your dedication to God, family and friends was sincere and palpable, and for that your legacy will live forever.

Meg, you have shown us and taught us that it is not the years in one’s life, but the life in your years. In your short years here on earth, you triumphed and accomplished like a true angel sent from heaven to magnify the fact that all good things come from God.

Thank you for all the kindness and love you showed me during my last trip to Cameroon.  I am forever grateful for the time we spent together.  You touched our hearts; you permeated the world with nothing but angelic dust.

So Meg, the sun did not set for you today, for a new day is dawn and the angels will welcome you home from whence you came.  Fly, fly with the angels; Shine, shine with all your brilliance, we will pay more attention looking onward amongst us, but angels like you will be hard to find; for you were a rare find.  We salute you and we bless your name.  We have been touched by angel Meg!!!!!

 

With Love,

From: Sister Emily Nkwanyuo

When I heard the news I was truly devastated, but I tried to remember the great life she lived and the many ways she impacted people’s lives. Aunty Meg was gentle, caring, kind, wise, and selfless. She will be truly missed by everyone, but she is in a better place. May her soul rest in peace.

My Only Sister,

 

Monday, August 16^th 7:04am, your last word to me on that day was that I pray for you. I know prayers have been your lifestyle and Isaiah 43, 1:19 confirmed it; that’s all I can make of all of this. We miss your presence here but heaven is our home, and the joy I find is that you are with the Lord, our father. Thank you for the souls that you won for Him. I am at peace, because what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul. But that is something I will not have to worry with you. R.I.P. I know you are not happy with the sudden departure but rest assured all is well. The good Lord is sustaining us all through this and He will continue to watch over your loved ones for you just as you have prayed. You will be forever missed.  Love you very much.

Words really cannot tell how terrible I felt when I got news that you have passed on. I was hoping to come back one day to enjoy the warm hospitality and above all your glowing smiles and the encouragements that you always gave me to forge ahead with the challenges of life. Your death gives me the feeling that life is cruel. But then I thank God Almighty for a life well spent . Sleep well in the bosom of the Lord Sis Meg

My dear Mother, Sister Meg, it is with a very heavy heart that find myself putting these few words together for you. Missing you is an understatement because I never imagined that your departure could be so soon. It beats my imagination to accept the fact that I will no more enjoy your love and tenderness. Thank you sister Meg for the love and care, directives and motherly advice that you gave me as you saw me pass through childhood to womanhood. I can't stop wondering why your destiny was so short when there was still so much life in you as well as many people still looking up to you to emulate your virtues. Nevertheless, we are happy because we know that you are with God Almighty. Adieu Sister Meg . Enoh Christy.
