...every exit is an entry unto the otherside
Gone Too soon, indeed!
Prof, Emeka, Nnenna, Geegee, Ebele and all those who would have loved to have Felinwanma still around: Isn't it amazing how quickly the anniversary of her death came around? It still feels like yesterday!
The Good Shepherd has ot left us alone in that dark valley of sorrow. His "rod and staff" have comforted us.
Isn't it a source of joy to think that we shall all meet her again at the dawn of the triumphant reunion with our Shepherd King? To God be the Glory!

A Hen Too Soon. (Emeka’s Eulogy)
Mom, you loved life. You wanted nothing more than to be there for everyone and fix anything that caused pain. You loved until the end and we loved you. You will be missed but never forgotten.
Mee-me,
Son

…Nné Nnè, So You Are Ready To Go?
I will release you I for you still have so many things to see and do; I won’t tie myself to you with many tears, but will be thankful we had so many good years. I say, "Thank you," for myself and for every life you touched.
You gave me your love and words cannot express much you've given me in happiness. I thank you for the love that you have shown, and now it is time you travel on alone.
I will grieve for a while, but my grief will be comforted by the trust that it is only for a while that we must part. And I will treasure all the memories within my heart. As life goes on I know that you are not faraway, and if I need you, I can call and you will come. Though I can't see or touch you, you will be near and if I listen with my heart, I will hear; for your love will always be around me and in me.
As you say good-bye to the life you used to live, and the world you used to know; we shall not be moved. I still marvel at your spirit, unshakable even in sickness, and will celebrate your strength throughout my days. Unconquered still you are, and in celebrating you, I celebrate the best in myself.
I want to say a final thank you, dear Mum, for being a great woman who used your life to serve, and to serve us all. You acted without concern for yourself and made life better for us all. My world was made brighter by your life.
Adieu Sweet Mother…
Your Son,
Gee-ge.
A TRIBUTE TO MY DEAR GEM MUMMY
A TRIBUTE TO MY DEAR GEM MUMMY
Let those that have gone take note they have treated their orphans badly. What is the wailing for? Somebody is dead, Ejiaka herself, Alas! A snake has bitten me. My right arm is broken. And the tree on which I lean is fallen. Death has made war upon our house.
SONGS OF SORROW:
How frighteningly few are the people whose death can spoil our appetite and make the world seem empty. Death is inevitable. It is also unpredictable, Nobody knows when, how and where it will happen.
Mama, you took your departure of this earthly plain having completed your assignment according to the will of God. Mama, you were my excellent mother, a great comforter, an adviser, a caring mother, wonderful mother, and a loving mother. I will miss you ever smiling face, our only comfort is that we shall meet on the resurrection morning.
Mama, no one can take your place, you are worthy of emulation, one in a million, your exit was a glorious one, now that you are in the blossom of the Lord. Sleep on my rare gem mother, sleep tight till we meet to part no more.
Adieu my dear Mummy
Adieu a rare gem
Adieu a women of the people

A TRIBUTE TO A TRUE MOTHER
A TRIBUTE TO A TRUE MOTHER
Through a life of resilience, you taught me persistence, through a life of virtue, you taught me excellent morals. Your exemplary life taught me many things, but the most valued of all were that you taught me to locate the path of life, to apply truth, and to love wisdom.
The beauty of God flowed through you, so you were cherished by many, your faith was phenomenal, and you overcame your world.
You fought the good fight, you finished your course and you kept the faith. How better can a fulfilled life be described? I didn’t lose you; we only parted to meet again. Your life couldn’t be taken, your life is preserved and your days well spent. Thank you for living, thank you for going, and thank you for a life of faith, which was powered by love. I couldn’t have asked for a better mother.
Bye mum, I love you.

A TRIBUTE TO A WONDERFUL MOTHER-IN-LAW
A more determined fighter than you I have never seen, because I saw you fight for your life till the very end. "Achamikwu", "Agu Mbachala", "Ijele", "Dikmpa Nwanyi", many other names signifying your strengths I recall.
Your legacy of live and let live, of never say die, of never giving up!….LIVES ON!
I know of a lady that once drove from Zaria to Ndi Amazu in a heavily pregnant state. I know of a mother so caring, she would volunteer her eyes to serve as meat for her son, if need be. I know of a mother undaunted by hardships, she would go any lengths to settle her sons. I know of a matriach so loving, that she would not hesitate to add a new mouth to her large brood. That was nne mo! as I fondly called you. And that is the mother- in-law I would forever remember, one translated so soon to GLORY, to eternal rest.
In the 9 years I have lived as your wife, and in the 15 years I have known you, you were an inspiration. I am lucky, indeed I'm blessed, to have been part of your life, to have been a friend, daughter and caregiver to you. In spite of all that happened at the later parts of your life, I have no single regrets whatsoever concerning you, except that you should have lived on more, to reap the fruits of your labour, and to enjoy the new lease on life that you got barely three months ago. I remember with great Joy, your wonderful dance steps on christmas day, and the joyous tones of the gospel songs we shared on your last prayer meeting with me and your grandkids 7 days before you died. Those would be my lingering memories of the life that you had, and now I truly know what you meant when you would always say, "Nwa mbebe ndu ka nwa mbebe onwu nma"
Adieu Sweet Mother, Nne Mo!
