'She was always willing to help and always willing to be there for someone else'
Rosemary Udoka Asiwe died on Sunday, August 6 after a battle with colon cancer. A prominent local immigration, personal injury and family lawyer, Rosemary, 45, touched many in the Merseyside area and further afield. Her husband Max Asiwe paid tribute to his wife of 13 years after her funeral on Friday.
Max, who works as a GP in Woolton but lives in Hunts Cross, told the ECHO about the 'bubbly' woman he first met as a student. He said: "I'm really missing her now. I'm really going to continue to miss her."There are a lot of people her passing has affected, in many different ways. "She was very bubbly, very outgoing and very easy-going as well and a very lovable person. She was always willing to help and always willing to be there for someone else."We met at the University of Benin in 1999. I can't tell you what it was but I was attracted to her instantly and we hit it off straight away."I came over from Nigeria first and she came after. She went to Glasgow first for a master's degree. I was in London.
"We have three children. Three girls. They're kids, they're dealing with it like kids. They don't properly realise their mum is dead." Rosemary's funeral was last Friday, September 8, with requiem mass held at the Holy Family Church. Speaking about the funeral, Max told the ECHO: "It was a nice send off. Most of her friends and family were there. It was something she would have been proud of herself."
