Dad,
Days have turned into months and months have turned into one year today since you painfully
departed from us.
Our tearful eyes watched as you slowly passed away though we loved you dearly. We could not make
you stay!
You did not get to say Good Bye to your beloved children it was God’s wish but we believe we will
one day meet again. our hearts still ache in sadness and secret tears still flow when we remember
you.
Living without you is almost impossible in life we loved you and in death we do the same.
Dad, you were a man of excellence and of great love and we thank God almighty for letting us be
part of your life.
Forever loved and missed by your children, grandchildren, relatives and friends. May God bless you
and reward you richly for your generosity.
Rest in Peace Dad.
If God says Yes nobody can say No.
Dad we thank God for your life we know you are with us watching keenly over us till
we meet again.
Eternal rest give unto him oh Lord, and let your perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. AMEN
