TRIBUTE TO THE LATE MR. ERNEST MANTE (AKA OSOFO MANTE) FROM THE PCG MOUNT ZION CONGREGATON             Osofo Mante as he was affectionately called has gone ahead of us to join the great army of witnesses who have finished their work here on earth, gone to wait for us and are also urging us on. They are urging us to fight the good fight of faith diligently without giving up as he never gave up.

TRIBUTE BY NEPHEWS AND NIECES TO THE LATE ERNEST FRED ANKAMA MANTE You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body: you know exactly how I was made, bit by bit how I was sculpted from nothing into something Psalm 139:15 What shall we say ........  Where do we begin to find the words to describe the gap you have left in our lives with your sudden departure?  We are still shaken for we were very hopeful that you were coming back to Ghana as you promised on your last visit to bury your sister. Recollecting how you related to us individually will be a difficult task, but we will be brief in our discussion.  Uncle Fred as we affectionately called him was a strong-willed man with character who fought for the rights of all irrespective of where you came from. He was a great pillar behind the F. G. Ankama family in all moments. We the nephews and nieces have their own cherished and memorable encounters with Osofo Mante. We all at some po...

Tribute by Brother and Sisters I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me, the crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous judge will award to me on that day and not only to me but also to all who have longed for his appearing. 2 Tim 2:7-8 It is with heavy heart and sorrow that we pay this special tribute to our dear brother, Ernest Fred Ankama Mante. We simply called him FRED. You were the central point in the siblings as we counted either from the first or the last. We could recount how as children we always dressed regularly to Sunday School because of the training, we had from our parents who were staunch Presbyterians. We did everything together as we were brought up in an atmosphere of love and respect for each other and the act of God-fearing and unity permeated everything we did as brothers and sisters. Your death came to us as shock and a big surprise from far away in a fore...

“You have fought the good fight, you have finished the race, and you have kept the faith. From now on the crown of righteousness is laid up for you, whom the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to you on that day—and not only to you but also to all who crave his appearing. (2 Timothy 4:7)” Late Ernest Frederick Ankama Mante, well known as Osofo Mante, Uncle Fred, Mr. Mante was a father of six, the Late Wilson Gyadu Mante, Michael Kofi Gyadu Mante, Esther Safoa Mante, Daniel Mante, Edna Mante and Jessica Mante. It is with heavy hearts that our father left us unexpectedly, leaving this earth and joining the creator in heaven. We all know that you are in a safer and a better place. You were an extra ordinary father, very loving, caring, jovial, disciplined, business minded and much more. We always loved been around you because of the love you have for your children, the jokes and the lovely stories and songs your told us when we were children. You always had a story to tel...

“What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but you lived and that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget” “Those who love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear.” Ernest Fred Ankama Mante, (aka Osofo Mante, Uncle Fred, Teacher Young, Young Man and Honorable) was born on December 26, 1950 at Mamfe Akuapem.
