A Tribute to my Grandmother, Ezinne (ASA) Comfort Uzoamaka Chime

Grandma Ezinne (ASA) Comfort Uzoamaka Chime lived a truly fulfilled life, reaching 99 years as a shining example of grace, courage, and steadfast faith. She was a rare gift to her family and community, and her home-call is both a moment of deep sorrow and immense gratitude to God for the privilege of loving and being loved by her.

A life of faith and strength

From Ekenene Village in Udi L.G.A., she carried herself as a true matriarch, anchoring her family in Christian faith, prayer, and unquestionable trust in God. She faced the seasons of life with quiet strength, turning challenges into testimonies and teaching her children and grandchildren to do the same. Her title “Ezinne” was not just a name, but a reflection of a life of godly motherhood, integrity, and sacrifice.

Heart of the family

Grandma Comfort was the center of warmth in the family, a place where everyone felt seen, heard, and accepted. Her compound was never just a house; it was a refuge where stories, laughter, discipline, and guidance shaped generations. She carried every child, grandchild, and great-grandchild in her heart and prayers, constantly checking on their welfare and rejoicing in their progress.

A legacy of love and wisdom

Her life was a living lesson in contentment, humility, and generosity. She gave freely—whether it was food, wise counsel, or simple words of encouragement that strengthened weary hearts. Her stories about the past, her proverbs, and her gentle corrections will continue to echo in family decisions, shaping character long after her passing.
Forever in our hearts
Though her chair is now empty and her voice is silent, her presence remains deeply felt in the values she instilled and the unity she cultivated. The family can stand tall today because she first stood in the gap for them, planting seeds of love, faith, and hard work that will continue to bear fruit.

Rest in the Lord

As her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, in‑laws, relatives, and friends gather to honor her, they do so with hearts full of both tears and thanksgiving. May Ezinne (ASA) Comfort Uzoamaka Chime find perfect rest in the bosom of the Lord she served so faithfully, and may her memory continue to be a blessing, an inspiration, and a guiding light to all who were privileged to call her Mama.
