In an interview with Eko Hot Blog, Mrs. Bummi Oguntade, on behalf of the family, referred to Madam William’s death as a monumental and irreparable loss to the family and to a host of others who had been at the receiving end of her goodwill for the nine decades of her existence.
“Maami was the cord, the string, the fulcrum, and the spiritual strength of the family. Her devotion to her children, grandchildren, and in-laws was unparalleled.
The spirit of love, altruism, and selflessness that defined her life would continue to be a legacy she will be remembered for,” Mrs. Oguntade said.
The celebration of the Late Mrs. Williams’ life will span two continents – Africa and North America, her cradle of life and her domicile, respectively.
