I have to accept you have gone to rest and remember the good times we shared. Even when I cry I see you telling me not to worry that everything is OK. I'm sorry ive not been to Yeside since your candlelight procession.
Thank you for being my friend, for sharing your food with me, sharing your shoes and giving me a place to sleep some days I didn't want to go home. Anytime I was with you, I would laugh from the beginning till I left. You were always positive and you taught me how to hustle.

Eulogy
Adedoyin was an incredible man that no one can replace. He was funny, kind, smart, loving, and compassionate. Adedoyin was everything to me, and I will forverer miss you. It is going to be difficult to put into words how much you meant to me and how much I will miss you.
I am heart broken that my better half is gone. I was truly blessed to have a husband who loved me dearly and whom I loved so much that it hurts. I don’t know how I am going to make it without him, but I know the lord is my strength and he has prepared me in this life journey to be strong . We can’t explain why tragic things happen to good people. The only thing I'm holding to is the Biblical teaching that God causes all things to work together.
Adedoyin was well loved by his friends, colleagues and family. He was extremely generous and kind-hearted. Adedoyin and I were meant to be together and I am so thankful that we met. I will never forget all of the wonderful times that Adedoyin and I spent together. He was always there when I needed him and I knew I could count on him. Adedoyin was a supportive loving husband, brother, son, father and friend and we will miss him so much. His memory will live on in our hearts for as long as we live. Adedoyin, you were the best husband anyone could have asked for and I love you so much.
Adedoyin you left behind a legacy of love and integrity to both your family and those who knew you a vacum that can’t be filled. I am grateful for each time spent with you, your wonderful smile and laughter, your dance to make me smile when I’m upset and for all the extremely funny jokes you shared.
I would like to thank everyone for their support and love over this difficult time.Adedoyin may your gentle soul continue to rest in the bossom of the Lord.
Dedoyin! This was you at my wedding. I was so unhappy I couldn't be at yours cos I was in the States, but you told me not to worry that you still had anniversary to celebrate. When you got back to Dallas, you wanted to pay my family and I a visit in Florida but distance and time became a challenge, we then decided you and your wife would at least stop by in February when you come to Nigeria as we would have been back in Nigeria too. That was the last I heard from you...why did you have to go like that? Hmmm! This life is truly meaningless. You have left a big painful hole in our hearts that can't be filled. You were a true friend, sefless, with a great sense of humour and loyal to a fault! Dedoyin, it's truly hard to believe you're no more but I thank God for the opportunity of knowing you and being your friend. I pray for your wife, family and loved ones, may God strengthen them and send his Holy Spirit to comfort them in this difficult time. May the Lord forgive your sins and grant you eternal rest in his bossom. Sleep on 'Mr Fokoyo'
