Mama Gulu, you were a wonderful grand mum and an amazing friend. You always welcomed everyone and loved selflessly. Your cooking skills can’t be undercooked. Thank you for the advise. It’s a pity that you didn’t get to see your final wish for me come true. I know you are in a better place. A place of no pain with your best friend.
May God comfort us all and especially your children through this painful time. They honoured and adored you until your death. May God grant them peace and blessings.
Rest in peace Mama Gulu. You will be dearly missed.

Dearest Aunt Mary,
We are deeply saddened by your loss.
I recall our last meeting and remember how welcoming you were. Jackson, Lilly, Yona and I were your guests and you gave us a place to call home. By nature you were a great career and always found time to listen, laugh and pray. Your love and words of wisdom will always remain as a reminder of the amazing parent, grandparent, friend and neighbour that you were.
May the Lord provide your spirit a safe passage to his Home and continue to bless us all.
