Auntie Lizzie,

You have finished your course with joy and yes it is time for you to receive your Crown.  It must have felt wonderful to hear the words from our Lord saying, "well done thou good and faithful servant".  That is who you are and will continue to be in my heart - a good and faithful servant of the Lord.  Auntie Lizzie, you lived a life that is worth mirroring.  A strong woman of faith unshakeable. It is funny because you are one of the first people who comes to mind when I think of Christian women. Your light has shone so bright in this dark world and now you can go on home knowing - Mission Accomplished. 

Auntie Lizzie, thank you for all the pamplemousse, cookies and lunches that I got when I would show up to visit with Etondie.  But most of all Auntie Lizzie, thank you for leaving behind three wonderful daughters who have learnt well from you and left no stone unturned in their effort to mirror you.  Once there was one of you - but thank God now we have three of you.    Go On Home Auntie Lizzie and enjoy you Mansion well deserved.

Etondie, Nams and Sister Ebob, may God comfort you like only He can. Please remember that you are not in this by yourselves.  There are plenty of sisters praying for you and the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much.






 

It's a few months ago when I met Mama Mbiwan during the reunion with Papa mbiwan; it had been long since I met Mama but it brought back fresh memories of her as one of the diistinguished pioneers of the only Government English speaking institution in Yaounde at the time.

Mama Mbiwan wasn't only a mother but a disciplinarian to her pupils and sought the best moral standard for them. I was a little kid at the time and was lucky to benefit from the last few years of her reign as Head Mistress of the Government Bilingual Primary School, Yaounde.

Mama, we'll miss you dearly but the lord has a better place for you.

Rest in perfect peace!


To the Mbiwan family:

We express our heartfelt condolences to you all; remember the good Lord will never abandon us even in the most extreme conditions. 
We thank God for Mama and the life she lived.



Amen.

Our sincere condolences to the entire family on the transition of Ma Mbiwan to the afterlife. Even as you grieve, I am sure you are filled with pride as you look back on her remarkable life and wonderful accomplishments. May the spirits of our ancestors receive Ma Mbiwan kindly as she takes a well-deserved rest and joins them in watching over us all. May you find the strength to carry on in these difficult times. 

We shall remember her as one of the poineers and enduring pillars of our educational system. Well respected for her love and compassion for all her "children". She has finished her race with the joy of accomplishment.
May her soul rest in peace.

Although our hearts are grieved at the news that Aunty Lizzie has gone to be with our heavenly father,  we miss her presence,and we are strengthened in our knowledge that Aunty Lizzie lived an exemplary life of a true Christian, just like the rest of the family.  The Mbongos, Mosimas, Matutes, dedicated presbyterians  who devoted their lives to the work of the Lord. 

Aunty Lizzie devoted her life to her family, her work as a teacher and a headmistress.  Aunty was  a selfless being, she gave to all who crossed her path.

Aunty Lizzie gave to all who came into contact with her.  She lived her life the way Christ would have wanted her to do.  She is living peacefully in the arms of the Lord, she has reunited with other family member; Aunty Mojoko, Mbamba Sophie, Uncle Fritz, Aunty Paulina, Mama Becka and so many others.

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, he maketh me to lie down in green pastures, he restoreth my sould.  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.  Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for though art with me.  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.  Amen.

Aunty Lizzie, we love you and we will see you in God's Kingdom.

Your niece, 

Eposi Tokeson & family 

Lord welcome Mama into your kingdom.

Bless and Comfort the family she has left behind .

Egbe, may your strong Faith in the Lord continue to sustain you during this period of grieve.

Amen

Ma Maggie Galabe
