“As a mother, I could not have asked God for a better blessing. You were everything I could have wished for or needed—a devoted, loving mother and grandmother, a mentor, best teacher, and above all, someone who was always there for us.”

“At a very early age, my motivation for becoming a physician came from watching you care for your patients with incredible compassion and dedication.”

“Mama, I am lonely without you. I miss you so much. Life seems strange without you… we developed the strongest bond any two people can ever form.”

“You looked me right in my eyes and told me, ‘ENYI… YOU ARE ALWAYS WITH ME.’ I said, ‘YES, ALWAYS.’ Mama, we’re still together. Rest peacefully. Everything is okay.”

“Your love for us was immeasurable, invaluable and precious. You gave, sacrificed, endured, reassured and stood by us no matter what.”

“Your love for us became the foundation of who we are today. You will forever have our love and gratitude.”

“Late nights and early morning conversations were always golden and formed the foundation of the able woman I became.”

“You may be gone but not forever, because there’s always something special to remind me of you.”

“Mama was the sweetest mother anyone could ever hope for… our safe harbor, our constant comfort, and the warmest light in every room.”

“We will honor you by loving one another the way you loved us, by being kind the way you were kind, and by keeping your memory alive in our hearts.”
