A HEARTFELT FAREWELL TO OUR BELOVED BROTHER
JAMES WILLIE NOKI — OUR “HOLD ANG” 🕊️
My beloved brother James Willie Noki, we never really called each other by our names. We called each other “HOLD ANG” a name that represented our brotherhood, our blood, our bond and the journey we shared together.
Your kindness, generosity, obedience, caring heart and spirit of sharing touched many of us. You were a man who made people feel welcomed, valued and loved. Your life and character left a beautiful mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing you.
Your sudden passing has left us shocked, heartbroken and struggling to believe that you are gone. We never expected to lose you at such a time. It hurts deeply, Hold Ang. It really hurts.
We will always remember the laughter, conversations, brotherhood, struggles and good times we shared. These memories have now become precious treasures that we will carry in our hearts forever.
You were not only our brother and friend, but also a Pioneer Song Leader of Trumpet COC Church, Port Moresby, a Song Leader at Trumpet COC Church, and an SME Owner. Your service, commitment and contribution will be remembered and deeply missed.
Trumpet COC Church will miss your presence. Your Day-One brothers will miss you. Your tribesmen, colleagues, friends, relatives and everyone whose life you touched will feel the emptiness you have left behind.
James, your earthly journey has come to an end, but your kindness, generosity, love, service and memories will continue to live on in us.
To the bereaved family, relatives and loved ones, please accept our deepest and heartfelt condolences. May the Almighty God comfort, strengthen and carry every grieving heart through this painful season.
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord…”
1 Corinthians 15:58
Rest peacefully, my brother.
Rest peacefully, my “HOLD ANG.”
Your brothers will never forget you.
Until we meet again. 🕊️💔
GONE FROM OUR SIGHT, BUT NEVER FROM OUR HEARTS.
FOREVER LOVED. FOREVER REMEMBERED.
" Your Day-One Brothers & Team "
