In her words: “A whole week without my old soldier 😢. It still feels like a dream, August 24, 2023. My first love has gone to rest 😭, and I am proud of you, Daddy. You fought bravely! 👏 You were a true warrior 🙌, the strongest man I’ve ever known 💯.
I witnessed how you endured pain for months 😫. You asked me to ensure that my mom and I visit my older sister, and I remember asking you why. You replied that you wanted us to be ‘united’ because you were sure she was lonely abroad, and I agreed.
I didn’t know you wanted my mother to be in a calmer place when she learned of your passing because you knew you were leaving us. You never failed to tell me how proud you were of me 😍. You never failed to compliment me 😁. You never failed to kiss my cheeks and say ‘I love you immensely,’ even on your sickbed, Daddy, you continued to shower me with love ❤️.
Everyone who knows me understands how much my family means to me and how highly I regard them 💯. I never took my ‘old soldier’ lightly, and it goes without saying.
Since your passing, Mommy has been in so much pain, and I don’t even know how to console her 🤦. But don’t worry, Daddy, I will be the strong woman you always said I was. My sisters and I will certainly take care of your wife, with God’s help 😇.
As much as I miss you, Daddy, I am glad that you are in a better place, resting now 😊. The best thing that happened to you was the day you rededicated your life and confessed Jesus Christ again! Blessed be the name of the Lord 🙏. I am happy that you are with the Lord 👏. I am happy that you are in a place without pain 😇, my guardian angel 👼. Please always protect and watch over your wife, my older sisters, and our star girl ✌️ in this harsh world 😔. I love you with all of my being, Baami 😘. Keep resting, Daddy 💋💋💋.”
