LOH #184// What is your Favorite Memory of Your Mum

The Lovely, calm, peaceful, God fearing, organized woman who birthed me is Mrs Grace Ijeoma Ngbaraonye . She was a dedicated Mother, an excellent cook, a unique teacher so passionate about impacting lives, she desired knowledge and this prompted her to enroll with NTI (National Teachers Institute) Aba Abia State but the cold hands of death snatched her away even before her certificate was ready for collection making me motherless at my teen age on 7th September 2008.
I wept, mourned, wished I could turn the hands of time, promises gone, friendship gone `ha'😭 confusion, bitterness, pain set in, an irreplaceable treasure was gone. I became so lonely and frustrated and shattered, until one day I was arranging my stuffs and I found the letter she wrote to me while I was in boarding school, I read it, I wept😢 and placed it to my heart , it became a consolation, an assurance that I am not alone and a forever cherished memory of my Mum.
I have kept it safe up til now that I have become a mother, reading it and still imbibing the instructions in them.
My Mum lives on cos her legacies and Memories cannot be forgotten. Much 🤍❤️ Mum.
