Daddy
Without your love, guidance, and mentorship, I will not be where I am today. Thank you for being my role model and someone I always aspired to be like in all aspects of life. You made me the man I am today and I will forever treasure that. I miss you so much, but most of all, I will love you forever. Rest well Nwa Adigwe.
Love
Chuchu
May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏽 And May God comfort momsie and all of you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
To uncle Adigwe,
Who often greeted me with a wide smile and a ‘that’s my brother’s face’ referring to my resemblance to his long time friend, namesake & my father; who was so jovial and welcoming, you are missed.
Rest in the arms of the Most High.
The untimely demise of my big brother, Dr. Patrick Nwosu-Adigwe, came as a rude shock to me and the entire members of my family. Until the last date of his demise, he was my reliable mentor, confidant and discussion partner. Despite our age difference (he was older), Dr. Patrick Nwosu-Adigwe related to me as age-mate; we spent hours together jisting and discussing all issues. He thought me how to be patient regardless of the challenges of daily life and I gained immense inspiration from his many years of real-time experiences. He was matured, absolutely transparent and intellectually sound. As a result of his outstanding academic achievements, he was always ready to support all his discussions with mountain of verifiable facts and figures. Certainly, I have lost a true brother and reliable friend but happy that he left behind a virtuous wife and partner, Lizzy; wonderful children and grandchildren to carry on his legacy. May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Amen. Adieu my big brother from another mother. Willie
Daddy,
When you called me in Mid April 2022 to know how I am doing and as usual extend your cares, I never know it was the last time I will hear your voice, enjoy your humor and those unique pleasantries.
To be honest, it still feels like I am dreaming. Oh “ Death, you are so wicked”. Daddy, thanks for the great time we shared together. You and your wife, my lovely “Mummy Ikoyi” took me like a biological son over the years. You took me into your house and covered me all the way until I settled down as a man. You stood in as my dad on my wedding day and I can still read your great signature/writing in my wedding certificate. I am dropping this note with so much pain and tears. Not having the opportunity to travel down to Canada, to say a physical goodbye to you or stand by your grave side is even more painful.
Daddy, please be assured that I continue to sustain the ideals you impacted in me – hard work, diligence, humanity and kindness. May God’s grace lead you home as you peacefully rest in the bosom of our Lord.
I miss you daddy.
Your Son, Dr. Vincent Nwani
