Mrs Ofei is simply a highly skilled, experienced, and industrious professional. She is extremely meticulous and pays great attention to detail. Mrs Ofei is solution-oriented and an excellent professional with strong interpersonal skills. I have learnt a great deal about the corporate world and the HR industry in general, as well as many real-life lessons, from her. I now honestly perceive and approach things differently among my peers. It is my wish that many people will experience her personal and professional ethics. Mrs Ofei is extremely stylish, and her sense of style and love for quality are exceptional—from her cooking to her office furniture, to say the very least. One of the greatest skills I have developed in my life is the ability to brainstorm across multiple projects and multitask effectively. This is one of the many attributes I have gained by working closely with Mrs Ofei. She has taught me this because she is truly a champion of this unique skill. Thank you for making me the person and the professional I am today. Mrs Ofei, wishing you a very happy 60th birthday and many more beautiful years ahead. All the very best. Mr Seth Yeboah Marfo Project Manager Aspire Plus Limited Beatrice Bridget Ofei, BB, you have no idea how happy this makes me—to be able to say a fewwords about our lives together and howmuch of a sister you have been. You may not realise it, but you have been a wonderful sister and friend. I remember when we were two-and-a-half years old and started nursery school in Site 3 before moving to Tema Parents’. I was in the same class with you for nine years, fromNursery 1 Lily right up to Class 7 Pallas. I watched you grow into this beautiful woman. Do you remember TheWater Babies? It was a book we read in Class 3. BB, you were our “water baby” because you were very sensitive and gentle. Today, you have shown us that our sensitive “Ellie” was simply full of love and kindness. We later moved to Aburi Girls’ Secondary School together with Shormeh Dowuona and Dorothy Nanka-Bruce. I remember when you were made Class Prefect—Form2C, I think. I worried the role would break you, but you proved strong, firm, and capable. I should have known then what you would become. Look at you now—60 years old—and you’ve done it all: wife, mother, and wonderful grandmother. The pride I felt watching our daughter Adjoa walk down the aisle with Raul was immense. BB, ayekoo! BB and Prof, ayekoo! Beyond family life, you’ve achieved national recognition. Being among the Top 100 women leaders in this country is no small achievement. I proudly tell people I’ve known that woman since she was two years old. I remember our year group’s 40th anniversary reunion when everyone was drinking Coca-Cola orMalta Guinness. You pulled me aside and said, “May, I have some beer in the car.” You brought us beer to celebrate in style—so generous, as always. When I met you at La PalmHotel years later, I joked about howmuch you’d grown. I was so proud watching you handle the Fidelity Bank programme flawlessly. Sis, see how high you’ve flown—serving on the board of a bank and running your ownHR consultancy. When I needed sponsorship and support fell through, you reached into your own pocket to help. I will never forget that kindness. Now that you’ve turned 60—and joined me on the sixth floor—I simply want to say I love you. Don’t stop being the warm, loving, generous sister you’ve always been. I wish youmany, many more years ahead. ❤️ May Caesar The Birthday Journal 33
