You cannot combine memo from QIF and OFX into one and retain both for a single transaction. 

If there no overlapping transactions from two different types of import then they both will live happily together in a GNC file in their respective transactions. You can re-import QIF files again and selecting U+C to overwrite transaction from OFX imported ones in the current file or vice-versa.

All I can think of is reverting to a backup from before the imports and then rerunning your imports again.
