“She was the only mom I ever knew; She was the only woman involved in my life, she was the only one who supported me when I left home for entertainment, she’s the only one who has ever prayed for me as a mother. She’s the only one who has blessed me as a mother, fed me as a mother, and clothed me as a mother.
The closest I’ve got to love from motherhood was from her, and she gave everything. She gave us more than what she had; she was the best woman on earth. Because of her, sometimes I say, thank God I never knew my mum, because maybe she wouldn’t have been as good as this. She was everything a mother should be and more.”
