Uchenna Okeke

Uchenna,

I really met you only once, at Ade's prayer meeting. You were still at School and you came over to visit Amuche. Your thoughts were clear, your questions were sharp; your contributions were incise. Now all of that is gone. You did not go without making an impact though, you went with this whole community stating that you were a brilliant light that shined. Thank you for shinning, thank you for bringing love and joy to many; Rest in Perfect Peace.

The news of your untimely passing was both shocking and unbelievable.
Words fail to express the loss we all feel - there are few that truly light up the world the way you did.
Thank you for the example you gave - and the inspiration you sparked in our lives.
Rest in peace...Shalom.

All, 

Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

 Sleep Well Uche. The news of your passing away is still unreal but I know that the memories of your strong, vibrant and super-woman personality will always stay with me and will be a source of motivation and comfort. You will never really be gone...at least not in my heart.

Uche right from time before we went to Loyola, our mothers put us together to look out for each other which I have to say you ended up doing the whole time for me. I didn't have to look after you, I never had to, you had it all together and Now you are eternally looking over me from above.
I know in my heart of heart that you and Chuka are with the Most High putting in a good word for me (Please tell Him to look after my two new angels). I can not even put into words how much i miss you guys or how much you touched my life. You have no idea how happy I am that I got the 2 of you for a whole weekend for my birthday. The best weekend of my life, I've never stopped saying, and it forever will be.
Your parents know how great you both are. Not a single negative word has been said or CAN be said about either of you and there is a reason for that. I thank the Lord for letting me have known you both for this short period but I know its not the how long you lived, but how you lived. and my darlings, did you live well. I LOVE and MISS you guys so much.
Eternal Rest grant unto them O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithfully departed. Rest in Peace. Amen!

I am grateful to God that he gave me the opportunity to know you. You are one of those rare gems that the world was blessed with. I know you are with God and I am glad you are there to watch over all of us and be our spokesperson in front of God. No words can express how much I respect and admire you my dear. May God be with your family and friends. We love you very much and will always miss your presence here on earth with us...yes even that weird laugh..lol...Love you girl xoxo.

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!” 44 The [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;
