Sroda Abui Porter

Sroda Abui Porter, 49, of Cary, passed away on October 22, 2026. Born on June 6, 1977, in Accra, Ghana, she was the cherished daughter of Wilson and Grace Gewu. A dedicated nurse, Sroda was admired by patients and colleagues for her strong work ethic, compassion, and heartfelt care for others.

Beyond her work, Sroda found joy in gathering vegetables from her garden, going for a run, and preparing meals for the people she loved. Anyone welcomed to her table knew that every dish was made with care. She will be remembered for her joyful laugh, which often filled the room before a conversation had even begun.

Sroda was the beloved wife of Khalil and the proud and devoted mother of Leila and Caleb, who were the greatest joys of her life. She is also lovingly remembered by her brothers, Ben Odamtten, Elike Gewu, and Nunya Gewu; her sisters, Selassie Brew, Enam Obi, Nayra Amoah, Daniela Kalmanova, and Elikplim Gewu; her mother-in-law, Cynthia Porter; and her brothers-in-laws, Isaac Brew, Obi Obi, Hakim, Jamal, and Bashshar Porter; sister-in-law Niki Gewu; nieces and nephews, Lulu and Kemdi Obi, Erika and Amber Gewu, Elorm Brew, and Naa Atswei Odamtten, Zane Kwamena Amoah and Zeke Kojo Amoah.

The family will receive friends and guests on Friday, October 30, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at Apex Funeral Home. A funeral service will follow immediately at 11:00 a.m. Additional viewing time will be from 12:00 p.m to 12:30 p.m. Burial will take place afterward at Wake Memorial Park in Cary, North Carolina.
