The children of the late former first lady, Mrs. Theresa Kufuor, have paid glowing tribute to their mother during the burial at the forecourt of the state house.
Edward Agyekum Kufuor, who read the tribute on behalf of his siblings, said, “To the world, she is a mother, but to her family, she is our world.”
At a burial service at the State House on Thursday, they described Mrs. Kufuor as the “heartbeat of the family”.
“We give thanks, for this is the will of God. Difficult as it may be to reconcile, we give unreserved thanks to God Almighty, for He alone is indeed worthy of all the praise and glory. For the gift of your life to us, as our mother, we are thankful,” He stated.
“For the gift of your unconditional love for us, we are thankful. For the gift of having you seed, teach, guide, and nurture our faith, we are thankful. We are thankful for having you as our confidant and cheerleader. Every difficulty faced, her advice was first, and her guidance always began and ended with prayers,” he added.
“You were the heartbeat of the family and we will always gather around your bee reminiscing about the memories in our childhood,” Edward Agyekum Kufour mentioned.
