The passing of both distinguished women within such a short time leaves an immeasurable void in the heart of the Movement, but their collective legacy will remain a guiding light for all who continue the work they began. Her leadership extended beyond our Movement. We were immensely proud when she was appointed Chairperson of the Council of State by His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama. She served her nation in that high office with dignity, wisdom, and humility — a fitting reflection of her lifelong commitment to public service. She discharged her duties with excellence, bringing to the role the same fairness, vision, and grace that defined her career. Those who worked closely with Auntie Cecie, remember her as a mentor, guide, and friend who cared deeply about people. Though she could be firm when the situation demanded, she was equally approachable and humorous — always ready with a smile, a word of encouragement, or a light remark that eased tension. Her passing is a great loss to the 31st December Women’s Movement, to the nation, and to all who had the privilege of knowing her. We take solace in the remarkable legacy she leaves behind — a legacy of service, ethics, empowerment, and leadership that will continue to inspire generations of women. Fare thee well, Auntie Cecie. Your memory will forever remain in the heart of the 31st December Women’s Movement. 1946 MRS. CECILIA JOHNSON 2025 70 A Loving Farewell
