He has passed on but his memory lingers on forevermore
So many people have passed on but the one person I wished he was still alive is MY FATHER. When you are talking about a caring daddy who has all the time for his children, he never gets tired of training us but death took him away after a brief illness. A super Dad who cares for his own and all other children around him. You can never be unhappy with him. I wished he never died but lived to see us exhibiting his teachings and discipline in character and in truth. Rest on beloved Dad🙏
My Dad meant a great deal to us but unfortunately, death took him so early
Even though he's no longer with us, he lives forever in my heart and memories as a rare gem, a caring father, and a peaceful maker. His unwavering dedication, unconditional love, and selfless acts have left an indelible mark on my life and the lives of those around him. There was a time I saw how selfless he was when he voluntarily gave out one of his apartments to students who came to write examinations without collecting a dime🤔 He was a pillar of support to our family both far and near. Dad is a gentle soul and a man of himself in truth and honesty.
Lessons Learned from My Dad
My dad taught me valuable lessons that I will cherish forever. He instilled in me the importance of hard work, resilience, perseverance, and compassion. He showed me that true strength lies not in wealth or material possessions but in the impact we have on others' lives. His kindness, truthfulness, empathy, and generosity inspired me to emulate his qualities and make a positive difference in the world. He can go out of his way to feed someone whether close to him or not. How can I forget your impact on my life? A super Dad!
Another great lesson I learned from my dad was the power of forgiveness and peace-making. Dad is a man of peace to the core, he cannot stay where there are conflicts without providing a solution. He had a unique ability to resolve conflicts and bring people together, always seeking harmony and understanding. His peaceful nature and gentle spirit have left a lasting impact on our family and community. I remember when he died, the whole community brought a tribute to read and in this was how he always preached for peace, how he wrote to the government so they could have electricity in the community, and many others. We called him PEACEMAKER

What made him so special?
What made my dad so special was his ability to love and care for everyone to the best of his knowledge and capacity. Dad can empty his wallet just for his children to be satisfied, he can go on an empty stomach to make anyone around him happy. He had a heart of gold, always putting others first before himself. Even in the most challenging times, when resources were scarce, where there was nothing to feed on, he stood tall and nurtured us to school, providing for our needs and shaping us into the individuals we are today. His unwavering support and guidance have made me the person I am proud to be. How I wished he was still alive to see his handwriting of success on us all. I miss you, Dad!
How have I been able to move on from the loss.
Though my Dad's passing has left a void in my life that no one can replace, I felt so bad for losing a beautiful soul like my father, it shook me to the extent I wasted my time writing jamb, I was still mourning him when the time to write my exams came but later I took comfort in the memories we shared and the lessons he taught me and stood up to become what he wanted for me while he was alive. I am proud to have had a father like him, who was worthy of emulation and admiration. His legacy lives on through me, and I strive to honor his memory by continuing his good work and spreading love, kindness, and peace wherever I go. I had to move on to make him happy wherever he was.
In Loving Memory to My Dear Dad:
A Rare Gem and a Shining Star!
A beautiful soul is no more!
A man with a heart of gold is gone!
A gentleman has gone to a great beyond!
Rest in peace, dear dad.
Your love, wisdom, and spirit will never be forgotten. You will always be in my heart and memories, guiding me on my journey through life. Love you so much, dear Dad!
