A Tribute to Mad. Charlotte Kabukie Baako by Bedeku Technical Institute Staff
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes, shine through the gloom and point me to the skies. Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee. In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me (Henry Francis Lyte)
It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we pay tribute to our dear colleague and friend, Charlotte, whose sudden passing has left a profound void in our hearts and within the institution she served so faithfully.
Madam Charlotte began her journey with us in 2018 as a NABCO personnel. From the very start, she distinguished herself with a rare combination of dedication, humility, and an unwavering commitment to service. Even when the NABCO programme was brought to a close, her sense of duty did not end there. Out of her own volition, she continued to serve as a volunteer, showing up each day with the same diligence and integrity that had come to define her character.
In 2022, her dedication was formally recognized when she was absorbed into the Ghana TVET Service as a facilitator in the Hospitality department. It was a well-deserved transition, and she embraced her new role with the same tireless work ethic and quiet strength that made her such a trusted and respected member of our team.
ChaCha was more than just a colleague, she was dependable, loyal, and sincere. Her work ethic was exemplary, and her trustworthiness beyond question. Whether working behind the scenes or supporting her team on the frontlines, she did so with grace, kindness, and a calm presence that inspired all of us.
We mourn the loss of not just a staff member, but a truly remarkable individual whose impact will be felt for years to come. Her legacy of service and integrity will remain in our hearts and in the history of BTI.
May her soul rest in perfect peace.
We love you.
