PROF. PATRICK DAKUM COMMISERATES WITH THE DASBAKS OVER THE DEATH OF MRS. MAGDALENE DASBAK
The Chief Executive Officer, Institute of Human Virology Nigeria, IHVN, and Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health, School of Medicine, Maryland University, Baltimore, Patrick Sunday Dakum, has sent his heartfelt condolences to Rev. Dr. Thomas T. Dasbak, Pastor in charge of Jesus Revelation Assembly and his entire family over the death of his wife, Pastor Mrs. Magdalene Dasbak, who recently transited to glory.
Dakum eulogized Mrs. Dasbak saying while she lived, she was committed to the service of God and humanity, and has been a virtuous wife to her husband and an excellent mother to her children.
He praised her also for having a good rapport with her extended family, members of her church, neighbours and the people around her.
The former Commissioner of Information and Health added that Magdalene was an epitome of womanhood, and called on the Dasbaks to see her death as the will of God and to take solace in the legacies she left behind and the fact that she is resting with the Lord as we are told in the Scripture that the death of a believer is sleep.
Dakum said to depart with the people we are used to especially good ones that impacted positively in our lives is a heavy burden and laden, but God has encouraged us in his word not to be sorrowful and overwhelmed with grief at such times, but be thankful and believe in him as he promised not to leave nor forsake us.
He admonished the Dasbaks to be strong and of good courage, and prayed that God would grant them the strength and grace to bear the irreparable loss and for the repose of the soul of Magdalene.
