“Our hearts are broken into too many pieces. You were truly the strongest man we’ve ever known,” she said.
Natasha said that although the family was going through a lot, they were trying their best to stay strong with fond memories they have of Nana Osei Kuffour.
“Thank you Nana, your legacy will always be remembered. We will miss you and we love you.”

Adding to the tributes, was the sister of the deceased affectionately called auntie Aggie. She, however, could not complete her sentences without crying.
