The father of three went on to express how her passing had deeply affected him, serving as a reminder of life’s fragility. “Her death has really shaken me,” he confessed.
“It’s moments like these that make us realize how pointless it is to hold grudges or engage in petty disputes. Life is so uncertain, and every day is a gift.”
Remembering her boldness, Funny Face lauded Akua Donkor’s unwavering spirit. “She faced so many challenges but always with a smile and her head held high,” he said. “Akua Donkor will always be remembered for her strength and confidence, no matter what life threw at her.”
In a candid remark on social dynamics, he added, “It’s surprising how some people can be so unkind, even with death always looming in the background. We need to treat each other with more compassion.”
