"The first call I got at exactly 12 AM was from my Dad, showering me with prayers and blessings. At that moment, tears filled my eyes."

"My Mum is no longer here to celebrate with me, and I miss her so much everyday, but God has been faithful. Even in the absence of my Mum, my Dad has been everything — both a father and a mother to me. He never left any gap, he stood by me, supported me, and loved me unconditionally."

"Thank you Daddy for filling both roles so beautifully, for your love and your prayers. Thank you Jesus for 40 years."
