Adaobi Nora Nduka (nee Uzonwanne), a beloved wife, mother, Sister and dedicated healthcare professional, passed away unexpectedly on January 16, 2025.

Born in Ihiala, Anambra State, Nigeria, to late Sir Cletus Nsofor Uzonwanne (KSM) and late Lady Okwuonye Eucharia Uzonwanne (LSM) on November 6, 1976, Ada spent her early years in Warri, Delta State.

When she moved to Canada, Ada retrained becoming a Registered practical Nurse through studies at Mohawk College after she had pursued professional development in Organizational Leadership at Humber College and Supply Chain Management at Seneca College. This change to the health care field was driven by her desire to care for and serve others.
