In Celebration of

Miriam Owusu-Mensah

April 2, 1946 -  November 19, 2024

On Tuesday, November 19, 2024, our beloved wife and mother, Miriam Owusu-Mensah, was called home to be with the Lord, passing peacefully in her sleep. She was the cornerstone of our family, a source of unwavering love, guidance, and strength. Miriam lived a life rooted in faith, ministering to souls with compassion and humility. She possessed a heart for others and the gift of hospitality, always opening her home and extending her kindness to those in need.

The Lord was her shepherd and strength, and she fought with grace and determination to remain with her family until the end. Miriam is survived by her devoted husband, John; cherished daughters, Jennifer (Greg) and Justina; treasured grandchildren, Kanishia, Zion, and G’zelle; her loving brother, Patrick (Esther); and her nieces and nephews. Her life was a testament to God’s love and grace, and she will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and the Ghanaian community.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the medical staff who went above and beyond with their compassion and concern for our mother. We are especially thankful to King Campus Dialysis for their kindness and unwavering support and to Dr. Aljama, Dr. Aghel, and Dr. J. Koole for their dedicated and compassionate care.

Growing up Miriam, was like a second mom to me. She always welcomed me in and she would always have food for us after school. I remember the birthday parties we'd have at her house for Justina and the many family events we'd attend with them. She was kind, loving, soft spoken talented and always giving. Miriam will be greatly missed.
