IN RUHARO MBARARA——-

St. James Cathedral Ruharo was filled with thousands of Christians on Sunday, as mourners gathered to pay their final respects to Florence Nightingale, the late wife of Canon Bobs Nathan Mwesigye, Dean of St. James Cathedral and head of the clergy in Ankole Diocese.

Florence Nightingale tragically passed away on Friday night at her home in Ruharo, following a battle with cardiac arrest.

The children of the deceased described their mother as a strong, jovial woman who taught them the power of prayer in providing all one could ask for. They commended the large number of Christians who attended the service to celebrate their mother’s life.

Canon Bobs Mwesigye shared the heart-wrenching details of his wife’s final moments, revealing that she developed breathing difficulties before dying in his arms as they attempted to get her to the hospital. He also noted that they were to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary on September 11, 2024. Florence Nightingale is survived by four children. Mwesigye praised his wife as a down-to-earth, gifted woman who was deeply loved by everyone and played a crucial role in the development of their family.

In his remarks, the Bishop of Ankole Diocese, Rt. Rev. Fred Sheldon Mwesigwa, urged Christians to prioritize regular medical checkups to monitor their health.

The Bishop of West Ankole Diocese, Rt. Rev. Johnson Twinomujuni, urged Christians to offer comfort and support to the bereaved family during this difficult time of losing a beloved pillar.

Several dignitaries attended the memorial service, including the Bishop of West Ankole Diocese, Rt. Rev. Johnson Twinomujuni, Mbarara Diocese Vicar General Dr. Severinus Ndugwa, Mbarara City North Legislator Dr. Robert Mwesigwa Rukaari, and Mbarara Resident City Commissioner, among others.
