You did not only gave knowledge but empowered others to stand on their own two feet, to be an asset and never a liability, to society. Your generosity had a gravity of its own; people were drawn to you because you made them feel seen. We know how deeply you loved life. So, when the time came and you entrusted us with decisions about your health, we carried that responsibility with everything we had. We wanted nothing more than to bring you back home, to see you settled in your chair, laughing that laugh, filling every room with your presence the way only you could. If love or sacrifice could have brought you back, we would have given more than enough. We did everything we could. We fought for you, because that is what you deserved. But in the end, God reached out His hand and called you to rest. And we must trust that He knows best. Rest well, Maa. You have finished your race. You lived well, you loved deeply, and you left no doubt about the kind of woman you were. As your children, we will carry your fire in our hearts for as long as we live. And someday, though we know not when, we will meet again, to clasp your hand in the better place, never to part again. We love you, Daavi. Yeda w’ase Obaatan pa Nante yie! 1934 MRS.
