IN LOVING MEMORY OF MADAM HARRIET NAA LAMILEY LAMPTEY
With deep sorrow, we announce the passing of Madam Harriet Naa Lamiley Lamptey, who departed this life on Saturday, August 9, 2025, in Amsterdam, Netherlands. She was born on Saturday, October 17, 1970, in Ghana, to the late Florence Naa Adjeley Okaine and her late beloved father Frederick Nii Odartey Lamptey.

She started her early education at Osu Presbyterian and later transitioned to Holy Trinity Cathedral Secondary School for secondary school level education.She later attended secretarial school at Sackey Addo and went on to work for Ghana Broadcasting Corporation shortly.
Harriet became strongly affiliated with the National Democratic Congress (NDC ) and was appointed woman organizer in the odododiodio constituency for a couple of years.

In 2002, Harriet immigrated to Portland, Oregon, USA, where she made her home and lived for more than two decades. She quickly became a cherished member of the Portland community, extending her love and support not only to her family but also to countless others. She was deeply connected with several immigrant and refugee communities, and was known as a mother, sister, friend, and confidant to many.

Harriet’s greatest joy in life was her family. She leaves behind three daughters: Comfort-Darling Quaye, Crystal-Candice Quaye, and Coco-Chanel Quaye, who will carry forward her legacy.

Those who knew Harriet will remember her warmth, generosity, and unwavering commitment to the people she loved. She lived a life of service, kindness, and faith, and her presence will be deeply missed by all who were blessed to know her.

May her soul rest in eternal peace.

My beautiful mother, everyday I’m reminded of how empty my life is without you. How I wish I could hear you yell my name but your voice I hear is in my heart and the many voice messages you always leave for me. I miss you a lot. Who will be my number one cheerleader and always have my back no matter what? Who can I always count on for the hard and difficult truth? How I wish I could hear your voice again. Rest well in the bosom of the Lord my beautiful mother. You will forever be in my heart. I love you forever.
