Mwalimu Hellen Ochiel Agalo (Nyar Joate)

1st Anniversary/ Appreciation

It is agonizing to talk in the past tense about a person who nurtured us, supported us through our dreams our entire life and gave us words of wisdom. Mama, one year today after passing on we are still trying to focus on being grateful to have had so many years with you, instead of being confounded by the thought of the rest of our lives without you. Mama, we watched helplessly in pain as you drifted away and our world fell apart but the grace of the lord kept our spirit high as we remember the wonderful moments you spent with us. We were like planets orbiting around you as a sun. You attracted our attention, emulation and our family activities whirled around your gravitational pull as you taught, advised, teased and cheered us on. Your voice is still fresh and your laughter as clear as ever. Our lives still feel hollow without you and your counsel dearly missed. No amount of words can express how much we miss you. Tears silently flow as the pain of your loss is still fresh in our hearts. Your advice and encouragement are planted deep within us and will never fade away. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Fondly remembered by your beloved family — sons, daughters, grandchildren, great grandchildren, great, great grandchildren, sons & daughters-in-laws, sisters, in-laws, relatives and friends.

We wish to express our profound gratitude and appreciation for the immense love and support extended to us spiritually, morally and financially following the demise of our dear MUM. Our special thanks go to Doctors & Nurses of Masaba &Victoria Hospitals, Worshippers of ACK St. Mathews Rabuor church Karateng, relatives and friends. Since we cannot mention each individual person, please accept our heartfelt thanks.

“Mama may your spirit live on to give us the guidance and love we have had to give away and may our activities on earth make you proud in heaven. For you have overcome a crown of life and is with the king of glory and will reign eternally AMEN!!!
