Martha, I am still shaking. I can't believe you are gone. I thought it was a joke, but now I know it is real.
I have been going to your apartment thinking that I will hear you calling Anna like you usually call me, but to no avail.
Martha, I can't thank you enough for your numerous advice taken upon as an elder sister to me when I entered The United States. My first dress and makeup in the US was from you.
You were there for me when I lost my elder brother in the US. You wiped off my tears. At the time I thought that my life had come to an end, you made me to know I had many things to achieve.
After my loss Martha, you did not give me the opportunity to thank you. Who will I give thanks to? Martha you are gone. You were such a great example in life - God-fearing, prayerful, generous, lovely, a pillar, an advisor. You will truly be missed.
I am in tears, who will wipe them off? Nobody. You wiped my tears and now I have to shed these tears because you are gone.
May your soul rest in peace. Look down on those you left behind, not forgetting your little Marie Angel. God has a plan for her. We love you but God loves you more. We know your mission has come to an end and you've been called home
by your master.
Dear Martha,
The day finally came, that we all had been waiting for. Here I am instead of fixing the baby's room like we had talked about ... I am thinking about flowers to put on your casket.. At 4:30 am Tuesday morning, that inevitable phone call came to my phone with your own very number, I waited patiently for you to tell me... Hey Dorean "I don Born". Instead I got the saddest message announcing your death. I have cried and cried and still cannot get the answer to your sudden death.
What can I say?? You were all excited about your miracle Marie Angel. What happened? You were God-fearing, church going, respectful and all what God needs us to be here on earth. Today you are gone with no notice, no forwarding address. It hurts us so bad Martha.
I bet we were put on earth for a reason and your purpose here is done. God has work for you in heaven where the is no pain, no illness and where you are surrounded by Angels.
My dear Martha, save us a place in heaven where we will meet to part no more.
Adieu my friend, Adieu M. Fonta as you popularly called yourself.
