His Excellency
Pastor Umo Eno
Governor, Akwa Ibom State
LETTER OF CONDOLENCE
I write on behalf of my family and Ibom Power Company to offer our deep condolences to you on the transition to the world-beyond of your dear wife and our First Lady, Late Pastor Patience Umo Eno.
Though still a huge shock, we have come to accept the painful reality that we will never enjoy her physical, calming presence again.
Her Excellency lived a life of virtues, and it is consoling that she lived for God and in service to humanity. She served the church faithfully and served Akwa Ibom State with love.
It is true the words of John Steinbeck that “it is so much darker when a light goes out than it would have been if it had never shone”: but we also agree with Thomas Campbell that “to live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die”.
As we stand with you in grief to lay her to eternal rest, let the destinies she helped to mould and the remarkable life she lived be your source of strength.
May your family find comfort in God’s love and hope in the promise of the Resurrection Morning.
With deep sympathies,
Engr. Etido Inyang
