Monica 80 Magazine

My first encounter withMase (In-Law), as I fondly call her, was when the old girls of Yaa Asantewaa Girls’ Secondary School (YAGSS) attended her husband’s funeral sometime in 1990. She is strong-willed, yet always ready to help. Though she often insists on her way (even against my resistance), her kindness always shines through. One moment that deeply touched my heart was when my son gained admission to OpokuWare Secondary School (OWASS); she gladly accompanied me — even for a parent–teacher meeting. We’ve had our share of misunderstandings, but they never last. We always reconcile easily, a true reflection of her gracious and forgiving spirit. AuntieMonica is a kind, caring, and motivating woman whose presence continues to bless those around her. Thank you, Mase, for everything you’ve done for me and my family. Happy 80th!!! Akuamoah You lived with us at Fanti NewTown during your elementary school days at the English ChurchMission (nowAnglican School). After passing the Common Entrance Examination, you continued your secondary education in Kumasi and later became a teacher. You went on to marry the lateMr. Asante, a Senior Lecturer at KNUST, and together you were blessed with four wonderful children. Auntie, you have always been kind, beautiful, and full of energy — loved by everyone who knows you. You are ever willing to lend a helping hand, whether to family or friends, and that generous spirit continues to inspire us all. We celebrate you today with heartfelt joy and gratitude. May God bless you with good health, long life, wisdom, knowledge, and prosperity. You truly deserve all the love that surrounds you on this special day and always.
