A tribute to Nne
September 16
by Nkiru Nwoye
Nneka affectionately known as “Neky Mama” was a beacon of light and love, touching the lives of those fortunate enough to know her. At just 44 years old, her journey was a testament to a life lived with boundless energy, profound intention, and unwavering affection.
Nneka’s radiant spirit transformed the ordinary into the extraordinary. Her smile and boisterous laughter were pure joy. She lived each day with an open heart, embracing life’s challenges with a vivacious and inspiring spirit.
As a devoted mother to her 17-year-old twin daughters, Jessica and Jennifer, Nneka was their rock and greatest cheerleader. They were her “besties” and together the “Three Musketeers”.Their bond was a testament to the depth of her love and the strength of her spirit. Nneka poured her heart into nurturing her daughters, teaching them to live fully, just as she did.
Nneka was a pillar of support for her parents and siblings, carrying the varied responsibilities with grace and never resting until every issue was resolved. Her siblings described her as the super glue that held the family together, a symbol of her unwavering commitment and love.
Her influence extended far beyond her immediate family. Nneka had a remarkable talent to make everyone feel seen and valued. Her kindness was limitless, and her generosity was a gift she shared freely and often. Nneka had a way of making each person she encountered feel like they were the most important person in the room.
In her professional life, Nneka achieved remarkable success. As a Partner in the Financial Services Industry, Audit Division of KPMG Professional Services, Nigeria, she brought over 20 years of expertise and dedication to her work. Her career reflected her drive, excellence, and the impact she made in her field.
Though her time with us was all too brief, the legacy she leaves behind is one of profound impact and lasting love. As we remember Nneka, let us honor her by carrying forward her spirit of joy, her dedication to her loved ones, and her unwavering commitment to living life fully.
In the quiet moments and the loud celebrations, in the shared memories and the heartfelt tears, Nneka will forever be a part of us. Her light will continue to shine in the lives of her daughters, in the hearts of her family, and in the countless lives she touched.
Rest in peace, Neky Mama. Our lives are poorer for losing your vibrancy, but your spirit will forever illuminate our hearts. The cherished memories we hold will guide us through this profound loss and keep your radiant presence alive in our hearts.
