Baba

Created by Penelope 6 years ago

A telephone call that you had passed away early hours of 18th October 2015 left me heart-broken and my life upside down. I intended to speak with you Saturday evening but after learning that you were resting; I decided I would speak to you 1st thing in the morning but Mwari vakaita kuda kwavo that morning before I spoke to you. No time to say good-bye. Mwari vakadarirei? No eye may see me weep but I have shed many silent tears. There is not a day or night my beloved father; that I do not think of you. Only God knows how much I miss you; only God knows the pain that I have suffered since I lost you. Life will never be the same without you. In my heart your memory is a treasure that will never die. No one can fill your place. Your life was a blessing. You were my Hero and you will be my Hero forevermore. I am who I am because of you; because of your wisdom and the sacrifices you made for me and most of all; because you were a loving and caring father. I hope I did you proud. Having completed my Masters Degree in July 2015, I waited for the opportunity to tell you that I dedicated the Dissertation which is displayed in Queen's University Belfast Northern Ireland United Kingdom to you Dad Henry Mujeyi and Mum Tsitsi Chawatama; and to the memory of Patience Taurayi Chawatama. I drew the tenacity of doing the Dissertation from you Dad, my Academic Hero! You started school at the age of 14 and paid for your education. I thank you Dad, "Daddy HM Chawatama" as in the letters you wrote to me; from the bottom of my heart. Ndinonzwa kudzambirwa zvakanyanya with one of your favourite songs "Dombo Ndipe Meso". I am very sorry I was not there when you needed me most. May God Bless you and keep you till we meet again. I love you beyond words can say. I miss you beyond measure. Your sudden departure reminded me yet again that LIFE IS LIKE VAPOUR! FOREVER MISSED; ALWAYS REMEMBERED. RIP My guardian Angel
