My earliest memories, when I was about 4 or 5. Justin and I would follow you where ever you went with our "rubber guns", in to those bushes in mondoni. I remember looking up to you because it took forever for me to shoot a bird, so i started providing stones for you guys. so funny the names you had for those birds. You always had fun, I remember Mr Anang, the driver will pick us up to go to school in that old pick -up truck and instead of me staying inside, I would wanna hang out with you guys in the back, so that we could see who got the most "lashings" from the old palm trees. After school we would gather at your house, under that almond tree aka "bangaskool", and watch you dance to thriller or Billie jean, ahhh and your fave " Lobe Lobe Africa", lolol. I cant even remember the guy who sang that song. Those good ol' days.
Countless memories in Houston, I'll wake up in the morning and the first thing you'll say is " Ashe you don chop", and we'll laugh coz that's the first thing Ma Fru says when I go home to visit her.
Jude Watching you take your last breath and even listening to your last heart beat was unbelievable. I could never have imagined you gone so soon, but you are with your father and god-father. Everyday, I think of you and I am reminded of my own mortality. Life is a journey, and yours was a memorable one. I am as blessed as everyone else to have known you during your pilgrimage here. RIP.
Sly Pimping, Sly B., Sly Bumber, J.U., Jay, Jude Ndifor Fru,
Somebody please tell me am dreaming. Where did you go Jay. You've left a hole in my heart. I remember that day in the hospital when you where diagnosed with cancer and you turn around and said to me," so you are going to leave me." and when i ask you why you and your response was, " i mean am going to leave you." Now you are gone to rest. I watch you take that last breath, 8:50pm sunday 5/23/2010 with so much pain in my heart, anger and sellfishness wishing if i had the powers, i would change things but you did it with peace. The God that gave you life called you to peace. You have been a tremendous person in my life. You showed me how to be responsible, stay away from bad friends, to be strong i can continue on and on. I remember the days and nights you took care of me when i was sick, having hard times in school and you work me through the difficulties, the b.b.q. nights together, watching movies, crime shows, comedy, listen to old school jams and play around the house. How you would come back from work in the morning and tell me your silly jokes and how hard the night was, we go to church on sundays and worship together and everything we did together. I know you are pain free because the Lord have release you. You will always hold a special place in my heart and i thank God for your life and the wonderful anniversary gift you gave me on sunday. REST IN PEACE JUDE. Forever be Loved.
Jude,
How could you do this to me? You have abandoned me at a crossroad and I am confused. Confused because I wonder who will do these things you always did for me starting as early as childhood (5 – 7 years old). Ju Ju, do you know that you took care of me in many ways despite your young age? I remember how you used to go hunting for birds and playing with friends but always came back to check up on me at short intervals because I was usually alone at home after coming home from work, or doing one chore or the other. Boy, were you energetic. When you advanced in age, you cleaned the lawn in front of the house so beautifully low and neat within minutes. I remember how when it was your turn to clean the living room, you will do so orderly and neatly, sending a clear message that “ War betide anyone who messes it up”. You became stricter as you got older. I remember how, you would not enter a dirty bathroom until the last person who used it, irrespective of who they are, came back and cleaned it up. I remember the warning you gave even me, each time you would arrange my room and closet. You would say” Ncham Ncham, if I
see any dress on your bed, I will give it out to someone in need. Jude, you were a wonderful cook. I miss those BBQs which was your passion.
Coming to think about it, you virtually played the role of Daddy in supporting your brothers and myself, emotionally, financially and just giving that fatherly love. I admired the way you trusted in God. I see you and I riding to Notre Dame Catholic church this Sunday, O6/06/2010 to attend mass. Oh son, it was a dream. I remember now that our Lord Jesus Christ came down on Pentecost Sunday (5/23/2010) and took you to himself. Greet your father for me when you get home to heaven.
I thank God for your life and I thank you sincerely for being the wonderful son that you have been. I love you dearly but God loves you more. I miss you son. I really do miss you.
Rest in perfect peace till we meet to part no more.
Your Mom- Martha Fru
From mama Che
Jude, you have created a big empty space in my heart that will never be filled. I love you but God’s will is the best thing ever.
You were too handsome inside and outside your heart. Your pleasant personality eased tensions, and your selflessness in providing assistance touched many hearts in a very powerful way. You made things happen. Your passion came through in everything you did from serving god to helping people.
The world is probably not a suitable place for all the qualities you had. Jealoused God would rather have you near him. Jude I am lost. What have you done to me? Jude say something to me your “CONSTANT” variable mama. No more BBQ with hot and spicy pepper. I miss you so much Jude. Adieu.
Mama Bernadette Che (your CONSTANT variable)
