Tribute To My Beloved Husband
y darling husband, I am s ll heartbroken over your sudden death.
I have not been able to get over the fact that I/we will never see
Myou again. You were a wonderful and intelligent person, you
thought me so much, I learned a lot from you. We built a wonderful family
here in Nigeria, lived well no problem and in the 1970's your quest for
educa on landed you to the United States where you pursued and furthered
your educa on. For years, you visited home every two years to make sure
your family were ok un l you had successfully migrated us all to join you. I
don't know why God decided to take you now when it is me for you to reap
the fruit of the seeds you've sown all your life. You were planning to return to
se le in Nigeria a er you re re from your job but sickness strikes. It breaks my
heart to see you gone so soon, but in any situa on, we must accept the will of
our Almighty Father. He is the giver and taker of life. You have fought your
ba le on earth and are now gone to be with your Creator. May He grant you
eternal peace, Amen! You will forever be missed in our mist. You were a rock
of our family; loving husband and a wonderful father. You worked hard all
your life to ensure your family is be er off. You are a role model; you made
sure your children a ain greater height in life, especially when it comes to
educa on. You ins ll in them the passion for educa on that you had all your
life. You loved and cared for your family and everyone around you. You helped
many both here and abroad in various ways to help be er their lives. I will
forever be grateful for what you have done to me and our children. You were a
