Dr, a great person, with honest smile, gentle looks and forever well spoken - all decent qualities in you. Your legacy will forever remain with the people who came across you. Women, Children in particular and men in general will MISS you but will never forget of your total devotion to help mankind medically, financially, morally just to name a few.

You are not dead but sleeping away from pains in this sinful and miserable world. Sleep and Rest forever with the Lord.

May the Almighty God receive you and keep you to perpetual rest in His Bosom in Jesus Mighty Name.

REST IN PERFECT PEACE TILL WE MEET TO PART NO MORE

Meeting Dr Biaka (Nadias Dad as I called him) was a pleasure for myself and my husband. As foreign friends we were welcomed into theirhome as familywas I admired him as much as he was building his Clinic..... Giving back to his Community.  I pray that his good soul would rest in perfect peace!  He will be always remembered by us!

You were an embodiment of greatness and selflessness. You worked for the common good and was passionate about excellence. You wanted your patients to receive the best of care and so you will never tolerate any unprofessional attitude from your staff. Your vision has impacted many lives and we thank God that He gave you the wisdom and grace to give life to that vision which has transformed a little known Dr. Biaka's surgery to an internationally acclaimed citadel of learning and vessel of holistic care. You vision will live on because you prepared your staff to work even without you. I remember your sincere appreciations to me when we made significant achievements. You never failed to say "well done" and "thank you". Dear Dr. Biaka may the angels and saints welcome you in their number as you move into eternity. Pray for us and may you find peace in the bossom of Abraham our father in faith

Rest in Perfect Peace

To Franka, the kids and the entire family: May the Almighty God give you the courage and resilience to withstand this great loss and may He bless you all abundantly now and always.

From dust we came and unto dust shall we return. Moreover, since we never determine when we came to this world,so we cannot equally determine when to leave for eternity.

 

  Pa Biaka,

               We the poineer batch of students of the Healthcare Management Department were shocked and taken aback by the sad news of your demise. Being part of your vision,we are deeply saddened and sorrowed by the fact that you left this world without seeing us through as the first batch of Healthcare Managers to be trained in S.F.H.I.N.M and above all in Cameroon.

 We see ourselves as part of the Orphan Children left behind by you,given that you never had the opportunity to see us sail through the turbulent waters that characterised our training. Infact the news of your death reached us a day to our defence! What a way to enable us manage the consequences of death as future managers to be!

At the end of the day, we have learned one good lesson from your death. that is to strive to do our best at all time when given the opportunity. Being able to manage the near chaotic situation following your death characterised by fear and uncertainty as to what the future reserves for us, is a stepping stone to facing all the challenges that lie ahead of us as managers- to- be wherever we find ourselves.Through your death, you have merely passed on the relay baton to us and we promise to be a true replica of what you lived and longed for as far as contributing to gaurantee quality healthcare to the populations is concerned.

We wish to let your entire family know that we share in their grief.

May the Lord recieve you in his Bosom and give your family, friends, and well wishers the strength and courage to accept the reality and turn a new page in their lives.

                              Adieu Pa Biaka!

Dear Uncle,

I believe if Dr Lawrence Francis Tonye Biaka was standing here today, his smile would be evident, and would want to reassure all of us that the world will go on as usual. He would equally want to reassure us that he is with the Lord and that all is well.
The Doc we knew was a sympathetic and sensitive person; popular with people and cheerfully efficient. A talented Medical practitioner with a bubbling sense of humour. He certainly had the knack of making even serious things good fun. He dedicated his life to bringing happiness to many families especially in areas concerning his profession. Many of these families will pay their respects to a man who with the help of God brought happiness to them.
Doctor was a selfless man who went through life helping others. He was a chivalrous and a true gentleman and we want to thank God for allowing him share his life with us. If we could have one single wish and not have another it simply would be to have another hour with Dr Lawrence Francis Tonye Biaka.
Doctor, we loved you. We will continue to love you even in death. May you rest in Perfect Peace.

The IKA IKA OQUA Royal Family of Big Qua Town, Calabar,  extends its deepest condolences to the entire BIAKA Family of Cameroon, most especially his dear wife, Francisca, following the departure to be with our Lord, of our beloved Brother and friend, Dr. Lawrence Francis Biaka.

Doctor Biaka endeared himself to us over many years through his presence, messages of love, care and affection that brings warmth to our hearts even as we bid him farewell to God's Heavenly Kingdom.

As we keep you in prayers during this period of mourning, please know that you have a family in Calabar that shares your pain and will continue to welcome you with love at all times.

MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.

Our father knew many people and had many friends, particularly among old SOBANS and the small group of pharmacists and doctors who had gone through Nigeria and returned to practice in Southern Cameroon. But Dr. Lawrence Francis Biaka was different. Though a man of many words, Dad was straight in his thoughts and opinions of Dr. Biaka. He simply called him "a good man".  'Lawrence is a very good man', he would say insistently. As children we came to know and appreciate 'Doctor' as a 'very good man' only in Papa's last days. It is a testimony to their love that binds us together today as one, in sorrow just as in joy.
Doc, may you Rest in Perfect Peace, as we take comfort in God's eternal Glory till we meet to part no more. Adieu.

For the Entire ITA ENO Family of Inokun.
