Tribute to Mrs Nervine Thomas - Banjoko.

Nervine, as fondly used - and on behalf of Samuel Banjoko, and the family at large - We will definitely miss you. It was only two month ago, we spoke for 2 hours and went on and on and I didn´t know it was our last conversation. In life you were a rock and a solid support and we loved you - and in death we will miss you and pray your journey is one filled with blissful memories and contentment of a life well lived.

My children who never met you, know so much of you and they were equally broken at the news of your passing.
Sleep in the Lord dearest Nervine and we know God loves you best.

Mommy, I'm not sure how to do this thing called life without you. I know you left me the tools for success, but what's success without the one you love? I believe that you made an agreement in the spirit realm to depart because you believed your work here was done. Truth is, If you lived another 77 years, to be 154 year old, it still would not have been enough time. I hope you're right about me mommie. I hope that all you believed about me is true, because right now I don't think I can do this without you.

I cannot believe I'm speaking about you in past tense!! But I am. Its been exactly 1-week since I heard your voice, felt your touch, read your emotions through your eyes. I told God to make time stop! But I guess he didn't hear me, because life is still moving forward without you. Doesn't time know that you died? How can the sun keep shining? The moon set? And you're not here? This seems so unfair, yet there is a peace about you that came over you at the very moment you took your last breath. I pray you keep that peace. Please send some to me on this side of heaven, because I feel like I'm in turmoil. I am sending you love to a place where there is no time. You should receive it, because the word of Yehovah says "That All Things Are Possible for Those Who Love the Lord and Are Called According to His Purpose". You were born, therefore you have purpose in him. So with his word will I stand. Mommy I Love you as vast is the universe is wide, deeper then the deepest ocean, and for as long as Infinity last. We have a umbilical connection. We share the same blood, the same God, the same love. I miss you like you passed 1,000 years ago.

In Utter Most Sadness I live without you But I have hope that the next time we see each other, it will be forever.
