Dr. Jeannette Ndapu Fotang December 9, 1970- September 13, 2022 Duration Living: 51 years Dr. Jeannette Fotang, 51, of LaPlata Maryland passed away on Tuesday, September 13, 2022. Born on December 9th, 1970, she was the oldest daughter of Willibroard and Margaret Ndapu and is one of 6 children. She was born in Santa, Cameroon, where she met her husband, Eric Fosung Fotang. They got married in December of 1992. Jeannette joined her husband in America, and the two lived in Maryland, where she gave birth to their two children: Jenny Fotang and Eric Fotang Jr. Jeannette attended the University of Yaoundé in Cameroon, where she received her degree in bilingual letters. She went on to attend Howard University in Washington, DC where she obtained a dual bachelor’s degree in Arts and Science. She continued at Howard University as a French professor while achieving her Masters in French Literature. She then proceeded to obtain her Doctor of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic. Jeannette was raised as a devout Catholic and pursued the Lord with a burning passion. She became an extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion within her parish, Our Lady Help of Christians Catholic Church, and a teacher of CCD. Her life’s goal was to spread the word and love of God. In her final year she wrote and published her book, The Paraclete; Holy Spirit. A riveting novel she wrote with strong conviction of God’s presence in our lives. The messaging in this book will long serve as her last calls to this world, as she quoted in her book: “This body that dies must clothe itself with something that can never die.” 1 Corinthians 15:53 Daughter, Sister, Wife, Mother, and Friend.
