Kwadwo Konadu-Agyemang Obituary

Professor Konadu-Agyemang was born in Kokofu-Bekwai in the Ashanti Region of Ghana on April 15, 1955. Kwadwo as he was affectionately called by colleagues was a tireless dedicated teacher. He took a strong and personal interest in championing the needs of his students and the sudden death fills all of us with an enormous sense of loss. He was a life long member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church.
He is survived by his affectionate wife, Tina; children, Sethlina, Yaw and Sabina; and a host of other relatives and friends in Ghana, the U.S., Canada and Australia.
Services to celebrate his life will be held on Sunday, September 2, 2007 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at The University of Akron's Student Union Ballroom, 303 Carroll Street, Akron, Ohio. Interment will take place in his native country in Ghana. If you wish, condolences may be sent to Dr. Konadu's wife and family at the following address: Mrs Augustina (Tina) Konadu-Agyemang, 4806 Wilshire Dr., Copley, Ohio 44321.

I only knew Dr. Kwadwo Konadu-Agyemang from a distance, but whenever I ran into him say at the grocery store or at a public function, he greeted me like a lost old friend.Since his passing, I have discovered that I was not the only one he treated specially, it was just his style. What a powerful testimony. May God bless and keep him safe in heaven, until we shall meet again. Good bye friend and may God provide grace and mercy to those close family members you left behind.Amen.

I do not know Dr Kondau-Agyemang personally. I saw the funeral announcement in the Daily Graphic of Ghana (Friday Aug 31 2007) edition and realised that he is a fellow graduate of the BSc Land Economy programme in the KNUST - Ghana. I entered the Land Economy programme the same year Kwadwo graduated. I must say I am really impressed by the achievements of my brother in Christ and wish to express my condolences to his entire family, friends, colleagues and the entire University of Akron community. I am convinced that his labour in the Lord Jesus Christ will not be in vain. May our dear one rest eternally in the mansions prepared for him by Jesus Christ. I pray that his family will encourage themselves with this knowledge that Kwadwo is hidden in Christ in God. Amen.
