This site is a tribute to Prof. J. O. Oliver-Commey (JOOC - JooCee). 

JOOC was a 2016 Republic of Ghana Order of the Volta (Member) Recipient, proud Mfantsipim Old Boy (MOBA 60), valedictorian of the premier class of UGMS (1969), Professor of Pediatrics, former Head of Department of Child Health (Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital) and fellow of the Ghana Medical Association. In all he did he strived to live his motto: "Unto whom much is given, much is expected."  He is survived by his wife, Hilda and four children. 

As we celebrate his earthly time with us, you are welcome to leave thoughts and reflect on any memories. He is much loved and will always be remembered.

I am Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I've found that peace at the close of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My Life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch,
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
