“My Beloved,
Thank you for all the wondrous moments we had together and for sharing your courageous heart, your love of life, and deep humanity.
I’m grateful that we celebrated your 80th birthday in the fold of our beautiful family and made wonderful memories which will continue to give us strength.
Rest in peace my Beloved; your wisdom and compassion will continue to light our way.
Nane Annan”
