Sadly my dear friend who has been in hospital treating for Cancer, whom most of you have prayed for and sent goodwill messages, has passed away moments ago.
“I am still in shock. I just don’t get it how someone can be diagnosed and be gone within two weeks.
“I saw her on Thursday and she was in a very delicate state which greatly distressed me the whole night and Friday. I really did wish there was something I could have done.
“This morning just about 12 noon I was praying for another friend going through an operation as I write, and I spent the rest of the time praying for my dear friend Remi and pleading God’s mercy.
“Got the message just after I finished praying.
“May her soul find perfect peace AMEN.
“Thank you all for your prayers and God bless you all.
“Dear Remi .. You will be greatly missed as a truly beautiful soul and a great Artisan..
“You have left a big mark that cannot be easily equaled. It’s been quite a while and a blessing knowing you since 1987 just after returning from England to set up your first outlet Freaky Designs..
“The joy for me is that you experienced LOVE right to the end.. We all Loved you and you Loved us back equally..
“I will not forget your words.. You told me
“Tell The World I Love Them
“and just so you know dearest Remi, We Love You Too…
“Peace and love to all the family… Have to stop here. Have no more words at the moment.
“We will miss your beautiful smile! Rest in Peace.”
