Anna Mabilong Gyang

Mummy.
This isnt an easy piece to write...
I thank God for the life you lived. The joy, singing, warmth that resonated from you.
You were a woman of faith and that gives me joy, knowing you walked with God and had a relationship with Him.
Your home was a place of warmth, fellowship, place of laughter and kindness.
Though we grieve your passing, we are comforted by God's eternal rest.
Your legacy of love, hospitality and kindness remains with us.
Merab and Joshua love and miss you. Keep resting mummy.

Rest in perfect peace, Mummy.
Thank you for your encouragement, and for taking time to guide me with wisdom and love.
Our conversations, your support for my shea butter journey, and your counsel on life and love will always stay with me.
May God grant you eternal rest and comfort all of us who loved you.
You will never be forgotten.

The memory of the righteous is blessed ~ Prov. 10:7

How do I put into words a lifetime of friendship
and sisterhood spanning over 54 years?
Anna was a loving and devoted friend and sister.

The first to be there when days were hard,
the first to call and check on me,
and the first to show up when we needed someone present.

Her devotion to family and friends was unmatched.
Her quest to see everyone become and achieve their
highest potential was her hallmark.

She loved and cared deeply.
She gave and served wholeheartedly.

Thank you, Ngo Mark, for making our lives richer
and for giving to the Lord.

Rest well, you’re missed beyond words.

Tribute from Gyemis

Ngo Mark—our beloved Mummy—
while our hearts are heavy with loss,
they are also overflowing with gratitude
for the privilege of having been loved by you.

You loved deeply and without measure.
Your presence shaped our stories,
your wisdom anchored our traditions,
and your kindness lives on
in the hearts of all who were blessed to know you.
Though we will miss you more than words can hold,
we carry your love with us—always.
In how we gather, how we care,
and how we remember,
you remain with us.
Rest gently, Mummy.
Your love lives on.

The Rose God Chose...
God walked softly through His garden,
where morning still clung to the leaves.
He paused by a rose in full bloom—
fragrant with kindness,
steady with grace...

She was the voice that called me Mbang,
a name spoken with history and love,
the only one who said it
the way roots remember soil.
She stood as matriarch of the Loh da Nyam Gyang family,

a pillar clothed in wisdom,
holding generations together
with quiet strength and prayerful hands.
Not because she had faded,
not because she was weak,
but because her season
had been beautifully, fully lived...

With tender hands, God picked His rose,
lifting her beyond thorns and weather,
placing her where gardens never wither
and love does not ache.
We mourn the space her presence filled,
the guidance, the warmth, the calling of my name and funny jokes about how I say the letter 'R'. ( e.g the story of the yat and yabbit are fwends)

Yet heaven blooms brighter tonight—
for God chose a rose...🌹
we have been deeply blessed to love and be loved by you! Rest Mummy (Ngwo Mark) until we meet again.
