My Tribute to my Sister & Friend, Kadem it!!!

Created by Bridget 6 years ago

Oh Facebook! Kept mute all t behis while only for you to remind me today of my friendship with Théodora Adjoa Habib-Tessier on Facebook six years ago!! Théo was truly adorable and kind to a fault. A phenomenal and alluring personality with a great and high sense of fashion & style. She was one rare gem of a kind with a gigantic heart who was larger than life itself!!! Oh life, how fleeting you are indeed. How can I now be talking about you Théo, in the past tense, ma chouchous? For real? So very surreal! My friendship with you developed more after our years at Holy Child School via social media. We grew from classmates to sisters from different Mumsies! We owe this beautiful and amazing relationship we shared over the last few years to Facebook & Whatsapp. Tu me manques, ma cherie!!! This friendship blossomed so well that I arranged a trip for myself and 3 other classmates, travelling across the miles over the Indian Ocean to visit you on the mind-boggling, spectacular and truly beautiful French Reunion Island exactly a year ago in October 2016. We spent 14 quality days with you and your fabulous hubby and witty & adorable teenage son in your beautifully mechanised state-of-the-art home, and truly so! Saying we were spoilt to the core of our bones each of these 14 days is a total understatement. That was truly a trip of a lifetime and we sure did have an experience equal to none other on mother earth. But alas! Little did we know that our last evening spent together having dinner at a gastronomic restaurant which we called 'The Last Supper' was truly our Last Supper with you alive. Upon my return, our friendship even developed further and to a deeper level. So much so that you and my hubby you had never met became real & close buddies. Oh how you both so looked forward to meeting each other! But then, it wasn't meant to be!! Kadem it, a term you frequently used is so appropriate here, anaa? Fyi, my baby boy has come to love it too and is using it and he tells me it is fast catching on with his friends too!!! Eeeeeiiiii, so you are truly gone? No more chit-chats, no more late night calls, no more singing, no more of your magnanimous laughter, no more interesting, funny and naughty posts on our Erudites' Holy Child School 1981/83 WhatsApp platform?? Who will call out the birthdays now? Who will reinstate those who either intentionally or accidentally fall off the platform??? Who, oh who???? Théo your silence on the platform is so very deafening!! Kadem it!!! We can only say the Lord gave, actually as in your name, gifted you to us, your hubby, your son, your brothers, your family, your friends and everyone whose life you have touched and whose path you have lighted with the light of God and now, He has deemed it fit to take you away and back to himself. The void your demise has created in our lives can never really be filled no matter how hard anyone else tries. We, however, acknowledge that you are truly at a better place where there is no more pain, no more hurt, no more guilt, no more fear, no more stress, no more shame, no more sorrow, no more sadness, no more darkness and no more disappointment. The Sovereignty of God is truly unquestionable and He is His own Intepreter indeed. I am thankful to God that by His own grace and through the massive outpouring of love and goodwill of our classmates, I was able to attend your funeral in France at very short notice and even see your final remains together with Lopu your childhood sweetheart and bestie. But even then, I have still not succeeded in coming to full terms with the fact that you have returned to our Father in Heaven. I can only join the song writer and say, It is WELL!!! Praying daily for your beloved and very romantic hubby and adorable & affable son.Your siblings too and your entire family. They will be fine. The sun will certainly shine again!!!! Lord teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Rest peacefully in the loving arms and in the bosom of your Maker. Adieu my dearest Théo! Sisters for life, I love you for always!! C'est la vie!!!Bisous, bisous!!!! 👄👄👄❤💜❤See you again on the other side!!!!! DAMERIFA DUE ne amanehu!!!!!!😴😢😭😓😪😵😰😡
