Tribute from Vic

Dad, it is Tuesday May 14th 2013. It is my first day back to work since your demise. For the past couple of weeks I thought I was strong until I came back to work then realized that I’m not strong at all and how much of a valuable thing I have lost. You are caring and supportive, you gave us the best in life. You were wise, smart and at the same time ignorant and it did not take much to please you. I remember when i came on national TV, you told everybody and did not care that i was on to talk about a useless show like Bold and Beautiful. You were always grateful to me for even the little things that i did for you and you definitely knew where to go when you wanted to hear the truth. When my Mawuena was sick you called on average 3 times a day to check on her statues. I cannot imagine life without your phone calls, even though I did not always answer your phone calls, I will do anything to get them back if I could. You were your kids’ best friends. Who I’m I going to call in times of trouble, you have always been very supportive of me and proud of my accomplishments even though they are not much. You always looked for opportunity to tell people what I did for a living. You never were at peace when I was single and prayed till God sent Yao my way and you accepted him, after that you also spent the following 18 months praying for a child until we were blessed with baby Mawuena. Even though I’m grieving you and the fact that Mawuena did not grow to see what wonderful grandfather she had, I’m glad you met her and blessed her as well. Daddy words alone are not enough to describe the sorrow and the vacuum that has been created with your passing. Daddy God bless you and keep you and I’m glad to have been there when the angels came for you that morning. Sleep well and keep doing what you love in heaven, worshipping and as I promised you we will take care of mum as long as we have life.

Victoria, Yao and Mawuena.
