The family laid a wreath in honour of the late musician.
Nana Opoku Kwarteng, who was wearing an all-black attire and holding a walking stick, shared some thoughts and sprayed his daughter's tomb.
Her mother, Beatrice Oppong, got emotional at one point and could not stand on her feet, having to bend down over her daughter's tomb for a while, as captured in a Facebook reel.
On his part, Ebony's father asked her spirit to unleash favour upon family and friends who visited her to lay wreaths on her tomb.
In another Facebook reel, the late singer's sister, Happy Opoku Kwarteng, said that celebrating her life has become an annual ritual for the family.
Ebony passed away on February 8, 2018, at the age of 20, just eight days before her 21st birthday, in a fatal car accident while travelling from Sunyani to Accra in her black Jeep after visiting her mother.
She was with her friend Franky Kuri (Francisca Maame Yaa Teboa Nkansah) and Lance Corporal Francis Atsu Vondee, a Ghana Air Force soldier, who all passed away.
One other person was said to have survived.
At the time of her passing, Ebony was at the peak of her relatively short career, having won the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) Artiste of the Year for 2018 posthumously.
