The Momoh, Gayflor, Zayzay, Kivircik, Kollie, Joemah, Marke, Harris, Taylor, Zaiwu, Kennedy and Zaizay families with profound regret, announce the untimely home-going of their beloved, wife, mom, daughter, sister, cousin, aunty, grandmother, and a dear friend Mrs. Edith Gayflor-Momoh, which sad event occurred at the AtlantiCare Hospital on Thursday, May 14, 2020 following a brief period of illness. Edith, an alumnus of the Voinjama Multilateral High School, a business enthusiast, a Realtor, a renowned Secretary, Treasurer of several organizations including the Lofa-Da-Tee Family Association and the Liberian Community Association of South Jersey (LCASJ), humanitarian, a woman of God, and a true Ambassador of the mentioned families, will be missed by everyone that she encountered during her short journey on this mortal Earth. Edith was fun loving and touched so many lives in Sierra Leone, the United States and her motherland, Liberia and most especially in Lofa County. In the words of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glory your Father which is in Heaven”. May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed in the Mighty Name of God rest in perpetual peace.
Consequent of the civil unrest in Liberia for more than 14 years, she and her family were blessed to have migrated to the United States of America in 2000 and settled in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Edith and her family have been residing in the Atlantic City area for more than 20 years. Edith being a business minded woman upon arrival in the United States, soon became one of the first persons to have started selling Liberian and African food at affordable price. She was named by her immediate family members as the first President of the Liberian Marketing Association of Atlantic City. In addition to her self-employment initiatives, Edith worked as a Social worker, a Realtor and later gained employment with the Atlantic City Library, as an Administrative Clerk, where she served dedicatedly until her demise on May 14, 2020. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ had a special mission for Edith and upon completion of the said mission; she gladly accepted God's call from labor to rest.
