It was celebration of a life well lived as family, friends, associates and business partner relieved their individual encounter with the late Chief (Mrs) Christiana Ekaje at the evening of Service of Songs held in her honour. 

The service of songs which took place at St Patrick's Catholic Church, Yoruba Road, Sapele, Delta State on Thursday, May 30th, 2024 was part of the funeral arrangements for the Late Chief (Mrs) Christiana Ekaje.

In her tribute, Mrs Ufuoma Aghwarenovwe (Ukings) describe her late mother as caring, one in a million. "My mother was my everything, she was a great support system, an inspiration to me, she put a crown on our head, she brought us her children together with love.

My mother was my friend, role model, adviser, hero, and the best mother any one could ever wish for. She was a leader, peace maker and unifer who carried everyone along. 

My mother left a void that would be difficult to fill in my life and for our family. I would miss her for her calls and peace loving attributes. 

In His tribute Mr Charles Ogaga Ekaje describe his late mother as an Iroko and pillar. 

"My late mother was an Iroko, though fallen, she remains standing through us her children. My late mother ensured that all her children were educated, she brought us together, stood for us her children and others. A lot of women doing well today are doing so because of the support that my mother gave to them. I will miss her greatly, he added.

Mrs Ochuko Adachie, one of mama daughter said; "my mother's death came to with rude shock, she is the best mother in this world. She was an inspiring soul, always there for any one who needed her support. She was loving, humble, compassionate and a family oriented woman who stood for her children, I love and would miss her so much. 

Very Rev. Fr. (Barr) Peter Kosunye, Parish Priest in his short message spoke on the vanity of life, urging people to live a good life and be ready when the Lord shall come.
