Senator Ben Murray Bruce, who previously represented Bayelsa East Senatorial District, is presently mourning the death of his mother, Madam Margaret Murray Bruce, who passed in the early hours of Tuesday 1, 2022.
She gave up the ghost at about 4.40 am, which was learnt from the former Senator’s post on his Twitter platform.
However, Bruce said he found solace in knowing that he gave his mother all the attention he could give during her lifetime.
He tweeted today, saying, “Life, Indeed, like sand in the wind, today it’s here, tomorrow it’s gone. My mum is gone. She died at 4.40 am this morning. My gem of inestimable value, my support system, my best friend, my everything—she’s gone.
BenMurrayBruce said My consolation is that in her lifetime, I gave her not just everything that money could buy, but most importantly, I gave her my presence, my time, my everything.
“On uncountable occasions, I will go to her house to hug her and play with her for no reason but love, the kind that only sons share with their mums. I love you, mum, and I miss you. This one hurts so bad. Forever yours.” He added.
