September 6, 2021
Auntie Boaduwaa, it is an understatement to still understand how your passing has affected us.Just a few months ago when I spoke with you on your birthday, you did not give me any hint that you will be leaving so soon.Maa,you have been more than a mother to us.You showed us true and unselfish Love when we were very young.
Taking us to church,the good counsel you gave us growing up as young adults and the bonds you build between us and your own biological children speak volumes. These bonds endure today and by God's grace will continue to endure for the rest of our lives as a testament of the Godly principles, the motherly care,the moral character that guided your life.
Perhaps,I was more fortunate of the siblings.For you took me into your confidence and we shared a lot together.You celebrated our joy with us but you were also there in our trials and our losses and provided us with comfort.Your presence alone in those difficult times was enough.
Maa,the scriptures says in Ecclesiastes everything has its time.A time to be born and a time to die.As your children, we believe that you have accomplished what the Lord set forth for you to do on this earth. And quoting from an old Irish Prayer,May the good earth be soft under you when you rest upon it,May it rest easy over you when at last you lay under it,And may it rest so lightly over you that your sour soul may be out from under it quickly, and up and off, And again, May God Hold you in the palm of his Hand.
Maa Boaduwaa,Rest in Peace Perfect Peace!!
