Eulogy - Chrisanthus Neba

It is difficult to belief that you are no more pa John. You were the heartbeat of our family, the gentle force that kept us grounded. You gave us roots though you raised us in a small community at Esimbi. You were always ready to help others using the least of your ability and resources. As a "Jack of all trades," you excelled in everything you did including blacksmithing, tailoring, shoe mending, hunting, not to mention other petty businesses. Above all, you served God whole heartedly till the end. You taught me the value of handwork, and tenacity.

Even in your last days, your quiet strength never wavered. You faced the end with so much dignity and grace. You showed us that a life well lived is one filled with love, kindness and integrity. Dad, I promise to forever thread through your footsteps. I will forever miss you but I am consoled knowing that you are at a better place. Rest on dad.
