Madam Grace Antwi, affectionately called "Auntie Grace" by friends and

family celebrated her 55th birthday with a party at the South Central Community

Center "83rd and Ellis" in Chicago recently. Among the many reasons Auntie

Grace had to celebrate the milestone was her diagnoses with a heart wrenching

medical condition which she was able to fight off with medical treatment and

surgery and also a miraculous escape from a car crash where the vehicle was

totally wrecked.

A supportive community from all walks of like in the Chicago area and

friends and family from other States in the USA and Canada showed up in their

numbers.

The Highlight of the celebrations were when Mr. and Mrs Antwi and the

Asantefuohene of Chicago, Nana Addae Baffour took to the floor to demonstrate their

Adowa dancing skills.

Dr. Gabriel Amoaten Boahen blessed the occasion when he offered the opening

prayer.Mr.oafo Papafio and Nana Marfo were the emcees of the occassion.

Freedom Sounds with D.J Sammie of Brolingbrookon on the controls vibrated

the dancing-hall with hip-hop, Hip-Life, and High-life music.He crowned his

marvelous performance with a special Reggae music in honor of the South

African Reggae Superstar Lucky Dube who was killed in South Africa recently.
