Death is a grim reaper. It steals and spreads gloom. It recently crept into the Ebelebe family of Owerre Akokwa in Ideato North local government area of Imo state and snatched away Mrs. Rosaline Ebelebe, leaving in its trails, tears and gloom.

However, the Ebelebes are consoled by the salutary life their matriarch lived. The family said the late Mrs. Ebelebe ran the good race. And was recalled home by her maker to rest in His bosom.

During her life time, the late Mrs. Ebelebe was a devout Christian who dedicated her life to serving God and humanity. As she is committed to mother earth on Friday, September 20, 2019, her forthrightness and wise counsel, according to family and friends, will be sorely missed, not only by them but also by all those who came in contact with her within and outside Owerre Akokwa.

However, the Ebelebe family say though they are pained by the loss, the invaluable and impactful life mama lived is worthy of celebration. They are therefore, celebrating the life and time of their matriarch. It is for this reason that the Ebelebes are inviting friends and well wishers to join them in paying last respect to the late Mrs. Rosaline.
