No helper?  Far from her strength, her belief  Being in majority with her creator  Adopted by a warrior who saves Peaceful rest at last in paradise  These comfort and bestow peace Loving mother  Ezigbo Nnem  The jewel of our hearts  Envisage you bestride paradise  Your belief, your reality, the truth  In the arms of your maker Rest forever peacefully ORIGINAL
