Hmmmm Sister!!!
Can't believe that 10 whole years have come since the devastating news came from afar!! I'm not sure how we've all made it through 10 solid years of your absence!! To say you have been sorely missed is even an understatement!!!! The Lord has comforted us in many and various ways and He continues to comfort us.
M'abena!! We miss you so much!! Obaa Glady!! Continue to rest well in the Lord who called you into your eternal rest. Missing you loads!!! Love you always!!!

hi aunty,

i can’t believe it’s been 10 years. everytime i think about you it’s a rollercoaster of emotions, sadness, happiness, joy, laughter and love. it’s difficult for me to process that it’s been 10 years already, it doesn’t feel real. im a completely different person to who i was at the time of your departure. i wish you were able to see me grow and make more memories together. the last time i saw you was the 10th anniversary of grandad and now it’s your 10th anniversary. i hope you’re still resting well. i’ll always miss you and love you until we meet again.

love your dearest Abena

You were truly a gift to us and as we remember you especially today we remain thankful to God for the years He blessed us with you, if only we could have had you for longer!! The good Lord knows best!!
We miss you sorely but the Lord comforts us and we are assured that we shall meet again on that golden shore. Rest on dear. We all love and miss you dearly.

Auntie - I can’t believe it’s been 9 years! I still remember hearing the news and hiding my tears on the bus home from university. Thinking back still makes me emotional today. But I always reminisce on the much happier times - being introduced to kool-aid, Sun Chips and you putting together our 8th birthday party in America! Thank you for everything you did for us. Continue to rest in perfect peace. Miss you! Jesse

hi auntie, i can´t believe it´s been 9 years, it feels like yesterday every time i think about it. so much has happened in 9 years, i finished secondary school, sixth form and even university. although i only got to experience 13 years of my life with you those 13 years hold a lot of good memories. i haven´t been able to visit America yet but when i do i promise i will come and see you. 9 years feels surreal, i still remember your voice and your laugh. i miss you so much and will continue to do so for the rest of my time here. i love you aunty. continue to rest peacefully.

"Sister ooo" remembering how I used to call you. I have never called anyone like that since your passing. You just had a very warm way about you, that drew people closer to you. We miss you, the children are all grown up and talk about you affectionately all the time. We just miss you, all of us, we miss you dearly. You are missed so very much. It is just the little things of life that make us miss you. You will never know how much you meant to us and how much we miss you. Sleep well "Sister ooo" in the arms of God Almighty.

hey auntie, can´t believe it´s been 7 years since God called you home. I always think about you and what you´ve always told me as I was growing up. you taught me to never give up, so I haven´t, not once. i´ve nearly finished this degree and after i´m going to enjoy life, just as you told me to and taught me to. at times it hurts me to know that you won´t be here with us celebrating big occasions but i know you´re always here with us in spirit.
I miss you more than words can even describe and I love you infinite amounts. Continue to rest in perfect peace my sweet aunty and I promise to come and visit you one day.
