Rest on, Sweet Winnie: A Heartfelt Tribute
Dear Winnie, It’s been seven years since you were taken by sickle cell. Your passing brought a pain that showed me how fragile life can be. I miss your smile—your laughter that sparked joy and your gentle banter that lit up my days. I remember our visits in Nigeria. The simple meals of fried rice and chicken felt like home because you were there. You gave me a comforting closeness, not romance but a bond that made me feel seen. I’ll carry that with me until we meet again. Rest in the Lord’s embrace, sweet friend. I know one glad morning I’ll see you, hold you, and remind you our bond was never broken by sickness or death. Rest on, dear Winnie. You were loving, caring, and deeply missed by all who knew you.
