Gospel musician Bernice Offei, who died at 63, had been suffering from dementia for four to five years prior to her passing, according to her former manager Kwasi Ernest. The condition significantly impaired Offei's memory and daily functioning, including her ability to find her way home. Speaking to Max TV, Ernest detailed how Offei's mental state deteriorated, leading to her confusion and disorientation.

The singer's disappearance occurred when her dementia began to cause her to lose her way back to her home. Initially, Offei's family conducted a private search for her, but when it proved unsuccessful, they publicly launched a search which eventually led to her discovery. After being found, Offei was taken to the hospital, but her condition worsened and she succumbed to her illness on September 12, 2026.

Ernest, who managed Bernice Offei during part of her career, remembered her as a disciplined and devout woman whose faith transcended mere preaching; she actively lived out her Christian values. Offei's death has sparked a wave of tributes from peers, fans, and admirers who continue to honor her contributions to Ghana's gospel music scene.
