ORDER OF BURIAL SERVICE FOR
LATE MR BENNETT U. OKOLI (KOMA)
AGED: 70 YEARS
TRIBUTE TO MY Dearest Father
s ll can't believe that you are gone. The news of your passing s ll shocks
me ll today. I s ll await your phone calls and it is becoming real to me
Ithat I will never hear them again. I saved your last voicemail informing me
th
that you will be going to church on October 9 for thanksgiving following your
surgery. How do we go from that to “your funeral,” It is hard to comprehend,
very heart breaking, but in all things, we shall give God the glory. We cannot
ques on him. He is the only one that knows the best for us mankind. I have
come to accept your death as His wish.
I look back, and I thank God for the opportunity to be your daughter, and most
importantly, your first daughter. You made the posi on of a first daughter
seems special. You called me “Ada Mmadu” un l your death. You introduced
me to all and sundry as your first daughter.
Thank you for opening the door of opportunity for me and my siblings. You
were my mentor, my advisor, and my best friend. You pushed me to be the
best that I can be and I will forever be grateful. Dad, we love you but God loves
you more. May you con nue to rest in the bosom of the Lord ll we meet to
part no more
ADIEU DADDY!!!
Your first daughter,
Mrs. Nneka Modilim.
