TRIBUTE FOR A DEAR COUSIN AND FRIEND
Chizoba Atuanya-Owoh was an elegant and a beautiful lady with a beautiful heart. Though she was taken away from us so pre maturely, she lived her life with fulfillment, contempt and fear of God. She followed God’s way till the very last day. Sometimes, I wonder why bad things should be happening to good people like Chizoba Atuanya-Owoh.
Mrs. Chizoba Atuanya-Owoh was a benevolent and unassuming lady. She will go an extra mile to accommodate or to help a friend or relationship. I cannot talk about Chizoba without mentioning her help towards me. The day I came to this country, I flew on the same plane with her and her sister Ifeyinwa. On our arrival at JFK, Chizoba asked Ifeyinwa to proceed to their terminal while she took me to my terminal enroute to Buffalo NY. By the time I got settled at Buffalo, Chizoba have already called to check for me severally. She continued to check on me almost on a daily basis, and have remained in that manner till I got the unbelievable news of her unfortunate demise. My family and I will miss her so much.
Chuka nwokem gboo! Nna death is an inevitable end. Our God who giveth has taken.. I know how much you love your wife but you have to wipe off the tears from your eyes and trust in God for consolation because he knows best.
Mrs. Ifeyinwa Atuanya-Ogwumike, Oguejiofor Atuanya and Nwabufo Atuanya, please accept our condolences. Our Lord will be your strength. He will see you all through at this difficult time of grief.
May Chizoba gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
Azu and Gloria Obiajulu
