"You never shifted from the faith; you labored till your last breath. A few weeks ago, you were preaching in Auchi, Edo State, and in Calabar. Your diary is still full — even at old age, you were still relevant. God honored you beyond imagination. You loved me and my family; you taught me, and you blessed me. You promised to keep preaching for me until you passed to glory, and you kept that promise. You said that anything I needed from you, you would do it — and you kept that promise.

"With tears, I say I will see you in the morning when the roll shall be called above.
