Dr. George Baffour-Awuah
(1950 - 2008)
Whether you knew him as Daddy, Doc, Uncle, or George - if you knew our father, you knew about his intelligence and diligence. You knew about his work ethic and dedication. And you knew about his kindness and generosity.

Daddy didn't grow up with very much, so he understood the importance of hard work, the wisdom of empathy, and the meaning of treating everyone with respect.

Daddy also understood that his gift was healing, and he gave of it generously. Growing up, our dad’s clinic was built in front of our childhood home, so we got a front row seat to Daddy's interactions with patients. Our mom would often tell of how he would treat patients for free and even after hours. For him, it was a moral responsibility. It's ironic that Daddy's health failed him in the end. But his generosity never wavered, and we wish to keep it alive through this work.

"Your legacy is every life you impact, every soul you touch."

Nabby Baffour-Awuah
(1986 - 2010)
Our sweet brother. He left us too soon but he packed in so much life while he was here. His professors and mentors mourned the loss of a career shining with promise, but those who knew him well, know that the world lost so much more when he left us.

Nabby was filled with a life bigger than his lifespan could hold. He always lived with such verve and passion...an easy urgency, as if he implicitly knew that life was meant to be enjoyed, that you got to pick what you invested in, because the rest is all vanity.

He moved through life with an enviable buoyancy, and a mischievous laugh and giant smile that were easy to return. He had this divine gift of walking into a room and elevating the energy simply by being there. And though his tough exterior looked like nothing could break him, he felt so deeply for those he cared about. Our hope is that we can keep the light he spread with his life alive.
