What I love most about you is your dedication to both your family and your work. It’s evident in the way you frequently talk about them, showcasing how deeply you care. Our meaningful friendship began during our undergraduate days in the Civil Engineering program at UST in Ghana. Despite specialising in different aspects of the field later on, we bonded while studying together in Queens House (residence). Although our professional paths diverged over time, our friendship endured through regular phone calls, each lasting about an hour. Our shared experiences and mutual respect for each other’s journeys have kept our bond strong. Happy blessed golden birthday to you, Monica! Welcome to the fifth floor club, my sister. On your 50th birthday, I pray and wish for an abundance of grace and peace in all your endeavours. May your work and life continue to positively impact others. May God bless you with good health and happiness. Cheers to many more years of God’s grace and favour. Your best days are still ahead of you. Enjoy your special day and beyond. Jeanne-Marie What I love about you is your constant willingness to lend a helping hand and give sound advice. Over the years in Canada, we’ve shared countless moments, from great laughs to sorrows and joys. Your support and friendship have meant the world to me. For the next decade, I wish you happiness, joy, and great health. May you continue to be the wonderful person you are. Catherine Isaka I love your drive and energy. It’s truly admirable how you always pull through for your family. A great memory I treasure is when you visited us in England and met my daughter for the first time. For the next decade, I wish that all your dreams and aspirations come to fruition. Francis Kojo Williams My great memories with you include our thought-provoking and vigorous debates on politics, world issues, history, culture, and life in general. I admire your tenacity, perseverance, and deep love for God. You never give up and excel at seeing things through, reflecting on obstacles, and tackling challenges from every angle until you achieve success. Your ability to do small things with great love is truly inspiring. My wish for you in the decades ahead is to continue your walk with God and find fulfilment in whatever you choose to pursue. May you be happy, healthy, and enjoy life, remaining blessed throughout the years. Nana Hormah I love your positive energy because you light up the whole room when you enter! Our time as roommates in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, was filled with so much laughter and joy. Those memories are some of my favourites. For the next decade, I wish you the best of health, love, and happiness. Joanne Boutet The Birthday Journal 55
