Esther Ngum Lordsamba

Anuty Esther, words alone cannot express what you stood for and particularly, what you meant to us. Suffice to say you were SIMPLY THE BEST ANUTY. Reason that all will want to come and spend holidays with you either in Douala or Bamenda .Typically of you,i know you are already preparing a place for us RIP

Growing to low you as a sister Inlaw was the best thing that ever happened to me. Although I happened to know you and exchanged ideas with you for a very short time, these moments were full of joy and fun as we could hardly separate without you giving me one or two advices on how to face the challenges of life. Although you are gone, your legacy lives on especially among those to whom you did instill knowledge. We will miss you but at the same time happy because you are with Him who has called you to come and continue the good work you already started while here on earth. Adieu.

Ever since destiny brought us close to Lordsamba and Esther we have shared their every moment of sadness and joy.We saw the children come and grow.we saw Esther building the future by nurturing the young at Saker Baptist College Limbe.We saw her relocate to the USA.We saw Lordsamba moulding the children filling the gap of Esther with such passion  and yet  keeping the flame alive for a future family regrouping.The absence of Esther was ever present and even galvanised them more.Her illness brought pain ,deep pain but with resilience they kept it under control.And now she has been called to The Lord.We share again this pain but we as christians are over taken with joy that Esther was handpicked by the Lord to be near him.We are over joyed that she passed away seeing all her family toghether.It is this legacy of togetherness that we remember her and hope for the surviving family.May she rest in perfect peace.I know her sisters, Junior,kongla and Andy will keep that legacy alive.

My deepest condolences.  May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...

John 11:32-45

32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

38 Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it.39 Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.”40 Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”

45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;

My condolences to the entire Ngums' family for they've lost so many already in such a short time. Special condolences to
uncle Andy who has known no peace since he immigrated to the US to take care of his sick wife. To sister Unice, I say
remain faithful eventhough it maybe hard knowing what you've been through. God will surely see you through these challen-
ging times. Take good care of yourself for all these children that God has left in your care need you to be healthy and be there
for them for many, many, many years to come. You are doing a great job with the children and I thank you so much for it because it is not easy. Keep up the good work and remain strong.

To sister Esther, I say adieu and tell those who went before you that we miss them greatly, but we know they are in a better
place where we shall all meet one day to depart no more. RIP.

Where will I start from! Goodness and Paradise are the same thing as they both belong to the' same realm. Our Sister Esther is Goodness and we should not doubt where she now belongs. We pray and wait to meet her in the Father's home when the appointed time comes! 

May God comfort and give you all, the strength that you need at this
 time. He is the all knowing and only Him can know why all of this
things happen to us. May His Angels surround you all now and beyond.
