Emani Oghakpor's Obituary
Emani was a beautiful happy baby she was full of life and always smiling. Everyone who got to meet her and hold her would just fall in love with her . she became me and Emmanuels whole world , she is and will always be missed and in all of our hearts . Even though we didnt get to have much time with you, mama and daddy will always love you ‘Juicy Fruit’ and you will forever be in our hearts.Even though Emani has changed the lives of many, she will also be truly missed by her grand parents Jattona Thornton , Gwendolyn Lister , and Emmanuel Oghakpor Sr. And she will definitely never be forgotten .Strong and Faithful Father,My heart is breaking for my child. The weight of this situation is so heavy it’s difficult to breathe. My words choke out in fragments. Sometimes they don’t come at all. Articulating thoughts requires more energy than I have, so I just sit in silence.My strength is gone. I’m anxious, Father. This situation doesn’t make sense to me. My child is so innocent. I don’t understand why this is happening.Help us to trust you with Emanis life . . . with every aspect of this situation . . . with all the pieces of my life. Keep me from attempting to rely on my own understanding because there is no way to understand this.Help us trust you with all my heart – not just part of it. I acknowledge that everything in the heavens and earth – everything that is precious to us including Emani – belongs to you. (Proverbs 3:5-6)LTServices are private and for family only.
