Ms. Sophia Walter-Holtz: A Lament on the 5th Year Anniversary of your passing
Loading ...Five years and seems just like yesterday since you left us. Though we know that your pain ended with your parting and you are in a better place, we miss you desperately every single day and wish you did not have to leave us so soon.
You graced this earth and touched everyone you encountered in a positive way. Your nursing students speak of a fair-minded taskmaster. Your friends recall the times you spent with them with glee. The treasured companionship you provided are apparent in the glowing stories they tell.
The loss of you for your friends, colleagues and students was great but pales in comparison to the immense void in our hearts and minds, when you left us on earth 5 years ago. You were the pillar, a rock on which all of us depended. Your wise council, financial assistance and motherly love were immeasurable. For us your children and other members of your family, you taught us well and your wisdom will carry us far.
You showed us how to be strong in the face of adversity and how to persevere during hard times. You showed us how to celebrate life and give thanks not just when our cup overflowed but also when trials and tribulations abound. Through it all I know we have thought about you and uttered your name countless times.
This is how we have filled the void and kept in touch with you. A lot has happened since you left us. Birthdays have been celebrated and some have left us to come and join you. Jerry’s premature departure shocked us all and I am sure you were surprised when he showed up above in heaven.
You labored well and did God’s bidding on this earth and you left this place better than you found it. We are all lucky to have had you as a friend, teacher and dear and dedicated parent. You will always be missed because no one but God himself, who called you home, can take your place.
Love Don, Esther and Tetteh and the rest of the family.
A MOTHER’S LAMENT
The day my mother died,
I curled up in a little ball,
And cried.
The day my mother died,
I couldn’t thank the Lord,
If I tried.
The day my mother died,
His Loving Kindness
I couldn’t see.
For,
The day my mother died,
From her cancer,
He set her free.
And,
The day my mother died,
T’was His Grace and Mercy,
Holding me.
