In deed she was a good person who was there to protect the weak against the dark forces. Very humble person and she was ready to share the little with the under privaleged. May HE the president replace her with a person with similar qualities. Go in peace… MYSRIP

SATA, please in all you do, do not belittle the Church – especially The Catholic and the Jesuits.
This is an innocent, genuine and friendly warning. Your failure to take this advice would cause problems for all of us as citizens, including you, especially you.
Mr President, I have freely advised you despite not being on the payroll of advisors; so that in future you will not cry and say, “no one advised me”.

May She Rest Peace. But the notion of having national mourning for every politician who dies in town is a ****** thing
