Our beloved Aunty Comfort will
Our beloved Aunty Comfort will always remain in our hearts, remembered for her quiet strength, unassuming resilience, and the deep impression she left on everyone who knew her. She could understand people, offering counsel that was both firm and compassionate, and showed genuine care. Though soft-spoken, her words carried weight and kindness. Without ever seeking attention, before her health declined, she remained deeply attuned, thoughtful, and quietly supportive in ways that made others feel secure with her can-do attitude. Her legacy of empathy, grace, and strength lives on in our memories. Rest peacefully, dear Aunty Comfort.
Word of your passing broke my heart
Word of your passing broke my heart. I have known you for as long as I have memories. My neighbour from my pre-school years who seemed to welcome any child on our street to dinner. Your kindness and readiness to share made you a comfort to many. Over many years of friendship, kindness and loyalty, you grew from a family friend into family, our Auntie. Your presence was constant and welcome. I grew to expect your love, encouragement and praise and also accept your correction. Patiently, you moulded my character. You were never shy to call me to order, no matter how big I grew. You told me when I needed to apologise, when I needed to be brave and when I needed to pray. You raised many children, and I am so blessed to be one of them. God blessed me, when you welcomed me into your heart, choosing to be a mother to me. I will forever cherish your memory and remain grateful for the time we had. Rest in peace Auntie Comfort, Rest in perfect peace.

Mum..I did not meet you, but you will go down in history as the woman who stood firm in the face of oppression. May God give you a resting place. Mama damrifa due
We still remember the kindness and the love
Even though we did not really get to see Grandma much as she was in Ghana whilst we were in England, we still remember the kindness and the love she gave to us. We also remember the songs she used to sing to us and the lessons she taught us. There will not be a day that we do not miss her, and we will never forget her. We will forever love you Grandma.
One thing I do remember is her love for God
While I don’t remember much about grandma, one thing I do remember is her love for God and how she blessed us all with his love. Her ability to be so loving and caring was her strength. She lived a long and fulfilling life. I love you and miss you endlessly grandma
It was comfort, it was family, it was home.
Unfortunately I didn’t get to spend as much time with Grandma Comfort as I would have liked to. I have a few memories from when me and Keira were little, like going to visit Aunty Lucy and Uncle Mike and Grandma being so pleased to see us. Her big smile lighting up her face, it never felt like we very rarely saw each other. It was comfort, it was family, it was home. Grandma, if I can be half the strong kind independent loving woman you were then I think we’re on the right path. I will miss you but you will forever be in my heart Grandma Comfort.
Grandma was the best . . .
My grandmother was the best. I remember when my grandma and the family used to sing her favorite songs. I also remember when I used to take pictures with her. She also used to sit in the driver’s seat and take pictures . I love her so much.
During the covid years . . .
During the covid years, we had family devotions at home on Sunday mornings. When it was time to share God’s word, I couldn’t get two or three sentences of my broken Twi out before Auntie Comfort, whom we affectionately called Cee Connie, would raise a spirited song and we would all sing together, giving praise to God. I remember Cee Connie for these two songs which were constantly on her lips. A victory song – “Nkunim di bi wo ho ma yen” and a thanksgiving song “Aseda Nka Onyame”. Auntie Comfort was steadfast in her faith and even attended her last church service in person two weeks before her passing. In her final days, with hand gestures, I believe she was giving glory to God and signalling her finished work. God rest her blessed soul. To God be the glory.
Adi would see . . .
Adi would see any picture of her grandmother and shout “Auntie!”, her best tribute to the great woman who was a mother to all. God rest her soul.
Please leave a tribute, a story, share a memory, a sentence or two in memory of Mrs. Comfort Agyepong.
