A LETTER TO SISTER EFFIE

From Mrs. Adoley Aidoo

“Teach us to number of days that will make gain a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12).

Words alone cannot express the pain and emptiness that I feel in this moment of
grief. I was introduced to Sister Efe by Bro. Ko, my husband’s cousin as his wife
when I joined my husband in Tema in 1984 and we became very close friends. She
was a big sister, friend, condant and prayer warrior partner. Sister Efe, as I
affectionately called her, was a devoted Christian and a woman of God. She would
always call to share a word and sometimes send me devotional messages to read
for us to call each other to discuss. We prayed about a lot of things for the well-being
of our relatives and children. Sister Efe was loving, caring, hardworking, trustworthy,
humble and concerned about the welfare of others. Her kindness was not limited to
only her biological children but to all. The virtuous or ideal woman in proverbs 31
verses 10 to 31 perfectly described her, because her generosity and sense of humor
was overwhelming. Hmmmm!!!!

Though we knew you were ill, we did not anticipate it would lead to your
death. I remember when we last met at your place you asked Nana to let you know
the date and month for her marriage because you are going to be here till
September. The news of your demise therefore came as a shock to us and will never
be forgotten.

Psalm 89:48 says “what man can live and never see death? Who can deliver his
soul from the power of the grave?”. The almighty God has taken a decision that will
work together for the good of them that love the Lord. So even in the midst of great
pain, sorrow and loss, I have no choice but to say “Thy will be done”.

Sister Efe My dear friend, condent and prayer partner, my family and I will
always cherish the good memories and the fun we shared together. You remain a
warrior and ghter and we know that the Lord that giveth and taketh has placed
you in a better place.

DA YIE SISTER EFFIE!! DAMIRIFA DUE AFUA DADSON. REST WELL MRS BEATRICE DUKER.

Your dear Sis.
Mrs.Efua Adoley Aidoo
