(To learn more about the Legacy initiatives in loving memory of Chuka and Uchenna Okeke - Click here ) Chuka Obiora Okeke and Uchenna Ifeyinwa Okeke were taken from us too soon on June 20th 2011.
In honor of their memory, we come together 10 years to the day of their passing to celebrate two vibrant beings. Chuka and Uchenna are survived by their parents Engr. Sam Okeke and Dr. Mrs. Edith Okeke; their sisters Dr. Mrs. Nnesochi Nnamonu and Mrs. Amuche Okeke-Agba.
Chuka was known to be very personable, an intellectual, a son to be proud of, a true friend, and all around good guy. Beaming with potential and someone who lived each moment thoughtfully offering kindness to those around him.
Uchenna an Electrical and Computer Engineer, full of life, love, excitement for the days outcomes, and someone with a generous laugh filling any room to the brim. A beautiful and vivacious daughter, friend and sister inside and out, a true joy to be around.
Their short lives touched all of us who knew them in a very special way. We thank God for the blessing of their lives.
We come together on June 20th 2021 to remember Chuka and Uchenna and the special gifts they were to us on earth. May we hold their precious memories in our hearts forever.
