Tribute from The Siblings
Today, we remember and celebrate the life of a remarkable woman, Dorcas Kerson. she was a woman of deep faith and quiet grace. She lived her life as a reflection of her love for God.
​​
Her spirit was warm and welcoming. She had rare ability to listen without judgement, to comfort without needing words, and to give without expecting anything in return. Dorcas showed us how to be better, how to love more fully and how to walk humbly with our Heavenly Father. Her faith was not just spoken-Though soft-spoken, Dorcas had a playful side that brought lightness and laughter to those around her. Her presence was a gift, her joy contagious, and her love unconditional.​
As we remember her today, we are reminded of the power of kindness, the beauty of a gentle heart, and the legacy of a life well lived in the service to God and others.
​
To lose Dorcas is to feel a deep ache , but it also to carry forward a legacy of love, compassion, and unwavering faith.
​
Though she is no longer with us in body, her spirit lives on in our memories, in our lives,and in every act of kindness we do in her name. she showed us how to be better, how to love unconditionally and how to walk humbly with God.
The world feels quieter but not empty because you filled it with too much in goodness ever to leave it bare. You are no longer where we can see you but you are everywhere we look in kindness, warmth and strength left in us.
​
We will carry you forward not just in memory but in action, by living with the light, love and generosity you have showed us.​
Rest peacefully and rise in glory, our dearest MAME ADWOA EDZIYIE. You were, and will always be deeply loved and may your memory be a blessing to us all.
Spoken Word Poetry Tribute from The Children
A mother, wife, sister, a grandma, a friend,
To all those around you your presence would mend
Your laugh so pure, full of warmth, full of joy,
Mum, this is our poem from your girls and your boy
A voice so sweet, so powerful, so sincere,
That every one of us will miss without you here
You told each of us we were special and unique,
This we were told every day, every week
But mum you were more than one of a kind,
A treasure we were blessed with to have, not find
And for those that did you remain in their hearts,
A love bond that never can be broken apart
For mum you cared more than anyone ever could,
You shared your wisdom and told us ‘we could’
You kept us three right,
‘sit up straight’, ‘stand tall’,
‘Be proud my dear children’, these words helped us all
You were there for us always, you heeded our call,
There was never a moment for us you would stall
From the day we were born you were there through all storms,
We’ll miss you Mama D; now we mourn, we mourn
