With profound sadness, I gradually come to accept the passing into glory of this special classmate and friend Mme Dorcas Waindim. My humanity conditioned me to question and question again; why Lord, why Lord at this moment. However I am consoled that like all mortals Na Martha has responded generously to the call from on high. My further consolation comes from the words of Saint Paul: But our homeland is in Heaven and it is from there that we are expecting a saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ who will transfgure the wretched body of ours into the mould of his glorious body, through the working of the power which he has, even to bring all things under his mastery.(Phil. 3:20-21). Na Martha you journey into your proper homelan Na Martha the gap you have created is irreplaceable. However like the Hebrew Proverb states; 'Say not in grief he is no more-but live in thankfulness that he was' I am remain eternally thankful that I encountered you in my pilgrimage through life. Memories in then GSS Fundong and therefter come to mind: Your Faith, soft spokeness, respect for others, generosity, hospitality, simplicity etc. With such a virtue characterised life I believe that these words of Christ will be yours: Come Oblessed of my Father,(...) Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world(Mtt: 25:34).
May the God of all consolation watch over your darling husband Timothy, beloved Martha and Ncham and your biological family. And to your friends and simpathizers i borrow.
the words of Seneca: The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one.
May your soul and the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace. FAREWELL!
