Let the memory of Anthony Kweku be with us forever | ![]() |
"My condolences to Dr. Andoh's family. Just recently found out about his transition. When I saw Moringa in Whole Foods I thought of my first contact with Dr. Andoh. I remember hunting him down because I first heard of him in California it was later I found him in College Park, Ga. He introduced me to Nebedaye he said it means Never Die. I began selling it and fasting with it and it helped so many of my clients. I just want to say Thank You for all your knowledge you shared and help. Thank you Dr. Andoh."
"Just wanted to share this beautiful poem in loving memory of my father
Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the mornings hush I am the swift uplifting
rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night
Do not stand by my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die.
Celebrating 74 years of Kweku Andoh"
"I still have the botanical display my brother gave me. Whenever I look at it, I think of the day he presented it to me. His concern for my health has brought me to 66 years of healthy man that may not have made it this far had it not been for his herbal knowledge that he shared with me. Love you brother!"
"He crossed my mind a week ago and I remembered benefitting from his BITTERS when he was based in San Francisco. A noble yet humble servant to humanity. Possessed a KINGLY AURA and his Queen Callie worked faithfully by his side. I am saddened to learn of his passing. Respect for a life well lived. RIP DR. ANDOH. MANY THANKS, Volyncia E. Davis"
"May the Lord continue to preserve your spirit till we see you in God's beautiful kingdom. Surely your spirit still leaves on. Rest in peace uncle you sill continue to affect us positively."
"Here's to a brother of impeccable knowledge, and extraordinary
humility. You are not forgotten my brother. R.I.P."
"You may be gone physically but your spirit still lives with us forever. Your humility and love for human continues to serve as a guide for all your love ones. You have left a vacuum but your legacy speaks volumes. You will forever be remembered by your family and loved ones. RIP"
"Once again, there isn't enough I can say about this 'Healer'. He'll always be remembered in my heart for his spiritual, physical, & cultural rescuing of someone that was definitely in need. I'm more than happy to pay tribute to my friend & brother. You will not be forgotten by me!
R.I.P."
"Words cannot express the sadness I'm feeling but finding comfort
In the wonderful tributes friends are sharing. It's nice to know four
Years on you are still in their thoughts.
Hopefully one day your grandchildren will fulfill your wishes of becoming a botanist.
RIP Dad miss you lots"
"I met Dr. Andoh, in the '90s, with other members and founders of The Garvey School in Seattle WA. He contributed friendship, knowledge, and instruction to any that would ask or listen. His gift to me was the introduction of the medicinal herb, Nebadaye (Moringa), which aided in rescuing my immune system from a devastating neurological disorder called C.I.D.P. or Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy in 2005. Over the past 10 years, I have been improving consistently, and have recovered most of my normal health. I'll be beholding to him for the rest of my life. Thank you Dr. Andoh! R.I.P."
"When I wake up every day to the sound and whistling of birds it reminds me of you Dr. Anthony Kwaku Andoh whom I simply call my dear uncle Tony. You were such a great and lovely uncle who inspired me in most diverse ways. I miss your smile and your attitude towards nature and its existence. You motivated me and a lot including people who came in contact with you. Your humility and patience were exemplary. I boast about your knowledge about plants and its uses every day. You taught me a whole lot about plants and their medicinal purpose and if only I had paid much attention to the scientific value of these plants i could have carried on your good work. The whole Andoh family miss you a great deal and more especially your sister Cecelia who has not got over your passing however we the Andoh family celebrate your life evryday. I know your spirit leaves on and your purpose in life still thrives as fresh as the green forest. Your legacy lives with us until we are no more. Your are my best uncle. You are in a better place where the Lord had prepared for you. And no evil will ever seek you nor destroy your good work. Rest-in-peace."
"Everytime I look at plants I think of Kweku. I was fortunate to live a few feet from Dr Anthony Kweku Andoh's North Scale Institute, on Taraval and 32nd Avenue in San Francisco. My father, my brother and myself would go in and listen to Anthony teach us about plants and how they interact with our bodies and our minds as well as our souls. Anthony was a quiet man when first approached, with a welcoming smile and he just made you feel good. He radiated positive energy. I know he is amongst the plants now, as well as the Stars, still radiating warmth and happiness. My love goes out to his family, we met his loving wife, and much respect. Ve con Dios Maestro, Ve con la Naturaleza Hermano, Ve con El Universo. Go with God, Go with Nature, Go with the Stars, Brother, Teacher and Friend. The Padron family."
"My condolences to the family of Dr. Andoh. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. I met Dr Andoh in Seattle, WA in the late 80's. His humility was some of the strongest that I'd ever met in a man of his caliber. In 2005, I was diagnosed with a neurological disorder called C.I.D.P. Along with proper nutrition, I steadied my diet with many of his Moringa/Nebedaye products. I am so much more healthier today because of it. I cannot thank him enough. Rest In Peace my brother!"
"Greetings from Cassandra Meroe Wimbs,

Practices. He would have liked my men's health project. He was

"I have your book and you are one of the greatest herbalist to ever to live.
THE SCIENCE AND ROMANCE OF SELECTED HERBS USED IN MEDICINE AND RELIGIOUS CEREMONY, by Dr Anthony Andoh"
"Dr. Andoh and with his wife and I put on the R.O.O.T.S.2 conference
and some documentary material in tapes and videos. They are
valuable for he was most knowledgeable about what keeps us
phsyical, mental and spiritually healthful."
"To one of my brother's from the mother-land. I will always think of you when I am in the rain-forest and here that special sound that the forest birds sing. I enjoyed learning and talking to you and Kali for the three years at the North Scale Institute and Botanical in S.F. Cal
Ala-afia,"
"My sympathy to the family of Dr. Andoh, I met Dr. Andoh a few years when he and his wife was here is Seattle. Thank you Dr. Andoh for all the work you did for us. I will remember."
