The Liberian-American became popular after he
entered Nigeria with the disease…..
Patrick Sawyer lost his life to Ebola a little while after his
sister, Princess died of the disease.
The 40-year-old is believed to have been infected after he
came in contact with his sibling’s blood.
According to an email, sent on 10 July, 2014, after she
passed on, Sawyer knew she had died of Ebola and
expressed his grief to his friends.
The mail, which was obtained by FrontPageAfrica, reads
as follows:
From: Patrick O. Sawyer < Date: Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at
6:09 AM
Subject: Ebola Struck Close to Home
To: Benetta Tarr < “H. Urias Harrington”
Dear All, My junior sister, Princess Christina Nyennetue
(Age 27) died on Tuesday July 8th at the St. Joseph
Catholic Hospital.
At my request, the Ministry of Health agreed to extract
blood specimens from her body in search for cause of
death and the result just came in this morning…she died
of Ebola Disease.
Princess was the only girl child of my mother’s 5
children…this make it particularly difficult for us
especially for my mother who lives alone in Southwest
Philadelphia .
If you Facebook searched my late sister Princess, you will
soon realize that death has cheated a promising young life.
Thanks to you all once more for your many messages of
condolence and best wishes. Good day.
