It is with profound sadness and regret that the Momoh, Ngangana, Zubah, Fuah, and Manley families announce the homegoing of our beloved mother, Grandmother, Great-grandmother, Sister, Aunt, and friend Bertha N. Momoh affectionately known as “Ma”, “Old ma”. She spent her final hours at Delaware Memorial Hospital on March 26th, 2021 in Delaware U.S.A. surrounded by the love and support of her family. Ma thanks for being such a beacon of hope. Our memories of you will forever remain with us. You lived life to the fullest teaching by example the meaning of dignity, honor, fairness, integrity, and forgiveness. Our families “Old Ma” will truly be missed.
