Eva Ohajuru 1st February 1926 - 23rd May 2016
Mum - passed away in her sleep Monday, 23rd May at 6:45am after a long battle with Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia.
Born Liverpool 1st Feb 1928.
Wife to Michael N. Ohajuru (12th Aug 1924 - 28th Oct 1995) for 43 years.
Mother to three: Martha, Michael and Peter.
Grandmother to seven: Eve-Marie, Anthony , Katrina, Ukandu,
Benjamin, Ibekwe and Chioma.
Great-Grandmother to ten with a great-granddaughter due: Detrix, Alex, Trenton, Dominic, Maia, Lewis, Serena-Beth, Ella, Isaac, Michael and a great-granddaughter expected in Sept 2016.
Placing Mum in a home on 19th December 2012 was the result of much soul-searching, as her Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia condition made it increasingly difficult for her to live independently, even in the sheltered accommodation with Steve Biko Housing and support from the family.
When Mum lost her battle with dementia, my sister and I were with her when she drew her last breath.
Mum leaves a great legacy: not just the family but in her work in the Liverpool 8 community.
