Father Chris, One never fully expects to lose their mother. But a mother can never be lost to you because she remains in your heart just as before as in life.

Fr. Chis and the family: We convey our condolences to you. Helen was a loving person. She accepted us as her own children when we visited her home or when she visited us. She was inspiring and appreciative. We enjoyed visiting her in different occasions. She has now finished her journey in this world.
Eternal rest grant unto her,O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May the souls
of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
On behalf of your priest friends from the Diocese of Tanga in Tanzania.
