Mama, though you are no longer here, your radiant spirit, the deep wisdom you imparted, and the warmth of your embrace will forever live on in my heart. I will forever miss the jokes and life-inspiring stories you used to tell me to motivate and encourage me. Thank you for being my anchor, my greatest protector, and the beating heart of my life. Rest peacefully in the arms of the Lord.
A grandmother’s heart is a garden of love where memories bloom and warmth never fades.🙏🏼Thank you for the extended care and love grandma. Till we meet again, rest in peace.
Mama, who will I check on me every now and then. I miss your voice every now and then. I pick up my phone to call you ☹️then I remember you are not here anymore. I miss you.
Sad to hear mummy's passing.She had lived a long and hopefully fulfilling life,but I know that doesn't make loosing her any easier. I feel privileged to have known her and will remember her with great fondness. Our thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time.May she rest in peace
Oh Grandma, time heals wounds they say, but missing you just feels heavy and raw right now. I keep listening to your voice calling me every morning looking for your smile and wish I could just have one more hug and more conversation. You were more than a mother and my guide all the time. It hurts so deeply to walk through a world where you're no longer physically here with us but spiritually you're with us. Grandma I promise to live my life in a way that honor everything you taught me. Till we meet again, gmaa rest peacefully
I met Grandma at a birthday party organized in her honour. I was a member of HOTEPOOSA team that was invited. My first impression was a GLORIOUS WOMAN WITH A DIVINE OUTLOOK very welcoming, full of smiles and advice. Indeed a mother that looked like my mother. The few times i pased by her shop we virtually kept laughing at my broken ewe and her decent twi. We gossiped small, she advised me to take good care of my mother the friend she never met. Incidentally, l was with her on Friday at the hospital and we prayed deeply for her recovery until an ambulance arrived. In the ambulance she frowned and asked in a deep voice 'Dela De' and l told her she was sitting in front of the ambulance then she smiled again and again waving and saying I WILL BE BACK and the ambulance moved ......but the Lord thought otherwise it was our last moment . Hmmmmmm....Grandma rest well ..the Lord be with you till we meet again. ..zor mor nyuie......
“A mother to me, a grandmother in name, but a blessing from God to my family.”
By Rev. Dr. Daniel Magnus-George
Today, I stand with a heart filled with gratitude, precious memories, and deep emotions as I pay tribute to a remarkable woman whom I affectionately called Grandma.
Grandma was not my biological mother, yet she became a mother to me and, indeed, a mother to my entire family. Our relationship became particularly special during the period when I had the privilege of serving as the Parish Priest at Asheley Botwe G. E. C. It was during those days of ministry that I came to experience her not merely as a member of the congregation, but as a mother whose love, care, wisdom, encouragement, and prayers meant so much to me.
When I served in the parish, Grandma treated me with a warmth and affection that went beyond the boundaries of pastoral ministry. She welcomed me into her family and made me feel at home. Her home became a place of fellowship, love, counsel, and genuine Christian friendship.
But what touched me most was that our relationship did not end when I left Asheley Botwe G. E. C.
Even after I had moved on from the parish, Grandma continued to relate to me as her son. Distance and change of ministry could not destroy the bond that had been created. She continued to check on me, encourage me, pray for me, and demonstrate that the relationship we had built was deeper than a pastoral assignment.
GRANDMA BECAME MY MOTHER
One of the greatest blessings of ministry is discovering that God can give you people who become family even when there is no biological connection.
Grandma became such a person to me.
She was a mother who did not need to give birth to me to love me. Her love was expressed through her actions, her words, her concern, her hospitality, her prayers, and her constant affection.
The Bible says:
“There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” — Proverbs 18:24
Grandma demonstrated this kind of relationship
Mama Yewoenao was a woman whose unwavering faith and kindness inspired us all. Her gentle spirit and compassionate nature had touched the lives of many, providing comfort and support in times of need. With every smile and every word of encouragement she embodied the love and grace that our faith teaches us. Thank you for your light and love; you were a true blessing to us all.
A beautiful soul will never be forgotten. Your kindness and warmth, touched so many hearts. May you rest peacefully, by eternal love. You’ll be missed, mama!
Our hearts are 💔Mama!.
We are grieving, but we are also reminded not grief “like the rest of mankind who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus, those who are asleep in Him”. 1 Thessslonians 4: 13-14
We take comfort that at the resurrection, we shall reunite.
Sleep well in the Lord your God Mama, until we meet again.
Your charming warmth, love and reception to those who come your way is second to none. At your 80th and 85th birthdays where I was privileged to attend, you really exhibited a unique motherly love. Very honoured to be part of this loving family.
Go thee well Mum, and continue resting peacefully with your Maker.
Tribute to My Dear Auntie Patience
I met Auntie Patience in 1989 when I followed her daughter, Tina, to her home, not knowing that we were family. From that day, a beautiful family bond began.
Auntie Patience was warm, loving and generous. Whenever you visited her, you could never go hungry! Her kindness and love will always remain in my heart.
Rest peacefully, dear Auntie Patience. You will be greatly missed and forever remembered. ❤️ Joyce
Some people touch our lives briefly, while others leave an imprint that spans generations. Mama was one of those rare, unforgettable souls. Our families (Kpodo-Tay and Yewoenao) share a bond that was forged decades ago through the great friendship between Mama’s husband and my father, the late W.E. Kpodo-Tay of Tarso Hotel who has gone ahead of you and your husband.
Growing up together in Ho especially with Tina, Mama embraced me not just as a guest, but as one of her own. She was a woman who guided, nurtured, and offered the kind of quiet, powerful motherly wisdom that helped shape anyone who cared to listen to her soft tone. She was a woman of immense strength, grace, and hospitality. To know her was to feel welcomed; to be loved by her was a true privilege. I vividly remember one of the birthdays Tina and her siblings organized for her. The long, rainy trek to Tina’s house was stressful, but arriving and seeing the fun-loving family and friends gathered around Mama made the arduous journey entirely worth it. As we celebrate her rich and beautiful life, I join Tina and the family to say thank you. She was a truly great, loving mother. I am confident that Tina—who has inherited so much of her warmth and capacity for love—will carry that torch forward. That is the best legacy anyone could ever leave.
Rest well, Mama.
Grandma…you said you’ll wait for me to come back, why didn’t you? I miss you so much. Rest well, I love you❤️
Not sure how to say goodbye — but I miss you deeply.
Rest in peace.
Mama,It is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to you.
When our own parents leave us, we often find comfort in the parents of our friends. Over the years, you became a mother to me. The way you would mention my name and ask how I was doing always made me feel loved and remembered. Every time I saw you, I felt a little closer to home because I saw so much of my own mother in you.
Mama, I will miss seeing you in the shop and hearing you ask, “Dofi how are you doing?” How are my grandchildren ? Those moments may have seemed small, but they meant a lot to me.
I will miss sending Awo Aliha knowing how much you enjoyed it. It always made me happy .
When Awo told me you were in the hospital, I honestly thought it was one of your usual hospital visits and that you would soon be back home. Had I known that would be our final chapter, I would have insisted on speaking with you one more time.
Thank you for your kindness, your warmth, your prayers and the motherly love you freely shared with me and my family. You had a gentle way of making people feel seen and cared for and I count myself blessed to have experienced that love.
Rest well, Mama. May the angels welcome you home, and may the Lord grant you eternal rest. Though your seat may now be empty, your love, your smile and your memories will remain with us always.
You were loved, Mama. You will be missed.
Rest in perfect peace.
May the soul of our lovely departed 'mum' find eternal rest in the bossom of father Abraham.
At 88, I can still hear Awo call your name. What a beautiful mark you made.
It was a privilege to witness you present at our school events. You taught me that while you lived, you were truly present. Sometimes, simply being there is one of the greatest ways to love.
You lived a long and meaningful life, leaving behind memories that will remain.
Now, the dawn calls you home.
Dada, hede nyuie.
Mama you are gone but not forgotten.
We thank God for inviting you in his own time to join the heavenly saints.
May your guardian angel, guard you safely to the bosom of our maker.
Rest in perfect peace
My dear friend Tina,
My heart aches with you and your brothers and sisters during this difficult time. Losing a mother is like losing your warmest covering in the middle of winter. It is losing that gentle voice that always knew what to say, that loving embrace that made everything feel better, and that special place where you could always find comfort, no matter how hard life became.
The sweet memories, the laughter, the words of wisdom, the little moments that once seemed ordinary, now flutter through your heart like butterflies at the close of the day. Though your mother is no longer physically present, the love she poured into each of you will remain forever. Her lessons, her sacrifices, her prayers, and her faith are woven into the fabric of your lives.
My dear friend, I encourage you to be comforted in the Lord. God understands the depth of your pain and promises to walk with you through every moment of grief. "The Lord is close unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit" (Psalm 34:18). When the days feel heavy, remember His promise: "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee" (Isaiah 41:10).
May you also find peace in the assurance that "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" (Matthew 5:4).
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you, your brothers and sisters, and the entire Yewoenao family. I pray that God surrounds you with His love, strengthens you with His grace, and grants you peace that surpasses all understanding during this season of loss.
To the beloved memory of Mrs. Patience Adzovi Yewoenao, a mother to all, may her soul rest in perfect peace. May her legacy of love, faith, and service continue to shine through the lives she touched.
With love, prayers, and deepest sympathy. Sena
To a mother indeed, whose love wisdom and Godly advice shaped me as a young girl. Your words were guidance. Your heart was a safe place. Thank you, Mama. You will forever hold a special place in my heart ❤️😔 🙏🏽
May the gentle soul of our departed 'mum' find eternal rest in the bossom of father Abraham
It is hard to find the exact words to say goodbye to someone who has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Looking back, I realize how lucky I was. Not every great-grandson gets to grow up with the wisdom, laughter, and love of four generations shining down on them.
You were the anchor of our family. Even as your family grew and generations changed, your heart never got smaller. You always had a warm smile, a comforting word, and a seat ready for me. I will always carry the lessons you taught me not just through your words, but through the way you lived your life with such grace, strength, and kindness.
Thank you for believing in me, for every story you shared, and for the love that spanned across the years. Even though my heart aches right now, I am so grateful for the time we shared and the special bond we built.
You may be gone from my sight, but your love lives on in me and in all of us who were blessed to know you. Rest in peace, Grandma. I will miss you always, and I will do my best to make you proud.
Your sweet and firm voice will forever echo in our hearts.
Rest well Granny.

Tribute to Mama Patience - My Baby Nor
We knew her as Mama Patience, but to me, she was always my Baby Nor.
That name held all the affection I had for her. Baby Nor was loving in a way that was calm and constant. She was a quiet woman, never loud, never seeking attention - but don't be mistaken, she carried a big stick. When it mattered, she stood firm, she spoke truth, and she defended what was right.
Her love was gentle but strong. Her quietness was not weakness, it was wisdom. Her discipline was not harshness, it was love trying to shape us better.
Baby Nor had a way of making everyone feel cared for without saying too much. Just her presence was reassuring. Just knowing she was there made things feel alright.
Her untimely death has left an empty place in our lives. An empty chair, an empty space in our hearts that no one can fill. We are broken because we were not ready to let her go.
But even in this pain, we thank God for giving us Mama Patience. For the life she lived, for the love she gave so freely, and for the legacy of quiet strength she leaves behind.
We will forever love you, my Baby Nor.
Rest peacefully, Mama Patience, until we meet again.
Losing grandma is a pain that words will never be able to convey properly. You were not simply my grandmother; you were a mother to me. You took me from my parents at the age of 2 years old; growing up, I thought you were my real mom until I realized we have different last names. You were the greatest blessing God ever gave me; losing you has left a space in my heart that no one could ever fill.
You loved me, protected me, and helped shape me into the woman I am today. There are still moments when I wish I could hear your voice just one more time, hug you one more time, and tell you how much you truly meant to me. I wish I had one more chance to say thank you—for every sacrifice, every prayer, every lesson, and every moment you made me feel safe and loved.
Death has removed you from my sight but not from my heart. I will remember your love, your kind words, your prayers, and all the little things about you that made you my grandma/mom.
I miss you, Grandma, more than words can express. Rest well, my beautiful grandma and mother. Keep watching over me until we meet again. I loved you then, I love you now, and I will carry you with me forever. Hede nyuie.
The world feels softer because of you. Thank you for being my first teacher, my nurse, my cheerleader, and my best friend.
You’ll forever be in my heart
Rest Easy Mama !
We mourn the passing of a truly wonderful woman whose kindness, warmth and generosity touched many lives.
She was a very good woman, and we will always remember her with great affection. When she celebrated her 85th birthday, she graciously invited the Hotepoosa Group to celebrate this special milestone with her. It was a beautiful occasion, made even more meaningful because her daughter is the Secretary of Hotepoosa Diaspora.
Her love for people and the way she welcomed and appreciated those around her will remain fond memories.
Although she is no longer with us, her beautiful memories will live on in our hearts. May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace, and may God comfort her daughter, her family and all who mourn her loss.
Rest well, dear Mum. You will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His faithful servants.” — Psalm 116:15
Tribute to the Late Patience Adzovi Yewoenao
Mama, you were more than a neighbour to us; you were a loving mother, a dear friend to our parents, and the cherished mother of a dear friend. You were also a wonderful conversation partner and companion to our mother, Mrs. Abiwu, at CK Road. Their conversations and companionship were truly special.
Your warmth, kindness, and gentle presence touched the lives of many. It was a privilege to know you and to share the bond of friendship and neighbourliness with you and your family.
Though you have departed this world, the beautiful memories you left behind will remain in our hearts. May the Lord comfort your family and grant them strength during this difficult time.
Rest peacefully, Mama Patience. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered. 🕊️❤️
From: Abiwu Family, CK Road, Ho
