Yosef Ghebreyohannes (1951 – 2021) was a beloved husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, brother, brother-in-law, uncle and great uncle. The grieving family he leaves behind today span every corner of the globe. Born in the village of Adi Mengouti in Mendefera, a region which would one day become part of the future state of Eritrea, Yosef was a natural-born adventurer. He had a yearning to travel the world and he grabbed every opportunity to do so. In his lifetime, he would go on to live in Israel, Palermo, Monaco and Nice before finally coming to rest in London. In 1975 while working as a sailor, he met Asegedech, the woman who would become his wife and lifelong companion. From that point onwards, their lives were entwined. They married in Palermo in 1978 then moved to Monaco where their eldest son, Mickel was born. The twins, David and Salomon, joined them four years later. Yosef  found work as a driver in Monaco, gradually rising over the years to become the highly-esteemed head of a large retinue of household staff. Following the birth of his grandchild, Akira, Yosef and his wife moved to London to spend their retirement there. In 2020, Asegdech and Yosef were devastated to lose their son David in tragic circumstances. Today, Yosef is survived by his wife, Asegedech, and his two sons, Mickel and Salomon.
