A JOURNEY TO HEAVEN
JUNE, 18TH, 2008
The sun was shinning brightly on the planet earth and the seas calm in the Island of Bakassi on June, 9th, 2008 but the day could not compare with the brilliance that was in heaven where there was great excitement and preparations. Felix was expected momentarily, and the Lord wanted everything to be perfect for the arrival of his loyal and faithful servant. The pain inflicted to Felix by human was only to his flesh as his soul was immortal. aint Peter was busy polishing the giant gates of pearl; Gabriel was practicing some special music on his magnificent horn;and the Lord had summoned all of Felix's loved ones--Efuetanjoh, HRH Forji Sephen and Asaba Joseph who had gone before him to make up the welcoming party. It was an awesome gathering of saints to greet Feli, as he entered God's realm. Felix was smiling broadly as he approached the heavenly gates, full of anticipation, for God's angels had made the trip with him and had prepared him for that magnificent entry. Felix entered self-assured, whole at peace,unafraid, and yes,certainly happy, for this was the most joyous experience he had ever had. The Lord Jesus came forward,enveloping Felix in his big , loving arms and said, "You know i hadpromised that in my Father's house are many mansions, come, and I will show you the place I have prepared for you,Felix ". Felix was overjoyed, but he told the Lord he was concerned about his wife,mother,loved ones, family,friends in Akwaya/Bangem/Muyuka/Bakassi/California, neighbors, and waterfront pls that he had left behind. Jesus said, "Now , this is something you are not to be concerned with, Felix, my son,because I have also made them this promise: " Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted:They that sow in tears shall reap in joy" Felix was indeed comforted with the Lord's Blesses Assurance, and knew indeed that he would be content to dwell in the House of the Lord forever. Felix could hardly wait until it was his turn to greet the next loved one who entered the Kingdom of heav en.
Felix, we will miss you dearly, your charisma, charm, loving attitude and above all the caring for your family. Mavis; Eunice; Emilia and Edward Tongwa love you , but the Lord loved you more. Rest in peace until we meet to part no more.

Edward could with the help of Mavis which I consider a remarkable writer start a Wikipedia page to highlight the achievement of this remarkable man. The world need to know more about his devotion to duty, his love of country and family
