Senator Ben Murray Bruce’s Wife, Evelyn, Is Dead
A former Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District, Ben Murray-Bruce, has lost his wife, Evelyn, to cancer.
Murray-Bruce made this disclosure on Friday via his verified Twitter handle.
He wrote: “I’m broken. Just lost my beautiful wife to cancer. She was my best friend for 43 years and my wife for 41 years. Cancer is real, but it shouldn’t be a death sentence – awareness, and early detection and treatment are key to survival. I miss her so so much. I’m broken.
“Our children are devastated, I am too. But I have to be strong for them. Please put our family in your prayers. Like the sun, my wife was a blessing and touched the lives of everyone she met.
“Though she’s gone, she’d remain alive in our hearts forever.”
