Happy 90th Birthday to the most incredible Grandma in the world—Auntie Alberta! One thing I truly love about you is the nuggets of wisdom you are always ready to share. In Ghana, we have shared countless precious moments together, both in Takoradi and Accra, and each memory is one I deeply cherish. Today marks a major milestone, and we are celebrating YOU—90 beautiful years of love, laughter, and wisdom. Your life has been such a gift to so many of us, and we are truly honored to have you in our lives. Your strength, resilience, and faith inspire us every single day. We’re grateful for the memories we’ve created, the stories you’ve told, and the love you continue to give so freely. Here’s to many more years filled with health, happiness, and joy. We love you more than words can ever express. Happy 90th Birthday, Grandma! **Roberta Cudjoe Happy Birthday, Aunty Alberta! The one thing I love about Maa is her genuineness— what you see is exactly what you get. She always says things as they are. One unforgettable memory was in 2017 when I went to the newly constituted Council of State to give a presentation on vehicles we wanted to sell. As I stood in front, I noticed Aunty Alberta seated among the members, deep in conversation. She hadn’t seen me yet. I turned to the Chairman, Nana Otuo Siriboe, and told him that was my mother sitting right there. He looked doubtful because of my name, Tachie-Menson. He called out to her and asked, “Aunty Alberta, do you know this man?” She looked at me once and said, “Hwana? ɔyɛ Tee aaa? ɔyɛ me ba.” End of story. Twenty-four members of the Council of State bought their vehicles from my company! On this special day, my wish for Aunty Alberta is continued health, peace of mind, and joy. May she enjoy the 9th floor with the same grace and fulfilment as she has every floor before. Maa, you are truly blessed and remain an inspiration to all of us, your “children.” **James Tachie-Menson The Birthday Journal 43
