Well Dad, Happy Heavenly Birthday x
Strange times we are enduring at the moment .We have all said Dad would have had everyone all sorted and organised. Stocking up on supplies and telling us what really was essentials ! I just hope we have all inherited a bit of you and Mums kind and strong natures ,then we cant go wrong x .I'm sure youd be proud of all your grandchildren ,especially how they are all handling the situation and looking out for each other keeping their own safe . However im sure youve had a word with the man upstairs to look out for us and protect us all i Happy Birthday Dad xxx

Tribute by Oluwapelumi Otitoju

I cried when I heard that Pa Ron had died.
I never knew somebody that felt like a Grandpa to me.
He was always happy, positive, and had a really kind heart.
There is one phrase that he always says: I am blessed and highly favoured. I will never forget that.
I was upset for a few days but then I realised that everyone has to die.
I am positive and sure that we will all see him in heaven one day.

Tribute by Ibukunoluwa Otitoju

Dear Pa Ron,
I was sad when I heard that you died.
I am very sure that you made a lot of impact on peoples lives and that is why people will miss you.
I know that one day we will see you in heaven.

Surely, we'll miss this great and committed general of God!!
Nothing could separate you from the love of Christ nor stop you from preaching the gospel. To you every avenue was a good platform to tell others about the love of Christ.
Your positivity, commitment, boldness and confidence in Christ inspires everyone that comes in contact with you.
Thank you for the selflessly services in God's vineyard.

We love you but God loves you most. Rest in peace with the Lord!

Oh Pa Ron, it's sad to know that you are no more with us in this sinful world but we thank God for the life you lived and your relentless service to God which we are now taking solace in because we know you've only been taken up by your creator for a pleasurable life in eternity.

Pleased to have met you and ask that you continue to rest in peace till we meet at the feet of our saviour.

Adieu Pa Roland Fake.

My Grandad, my best friend, my Friday night date and my hero. You hold a very special place in my heart and I can't describe how much I'm going to miss you. We have had so many great times just the two of us and with the family. You have touched hearts all over the world and so many people love you, for that I am so proud. I will miss you every day until we meet again. Love you lots like jelly tots. Leah-Anne xxxxxx

The adventure was strong in my Grandad. His heart was full and his actions stretched across the globe.

He is no longer here but I will always carry him. In my thoughts, actions and recipes. In how I view those who need help and how try to find a way to help them.

I see him in the flowers and the birds and all the things he could name. I see him when I think about what I will do next and I know I will see him again when I try to live out my last years as graciously.

Because that's the thing about love and I've learned that the only way to carry on is allow yourself to carry them with you.

I thank God for the life of Grandpa as I fondly called him. He made my adjusting to live in Aberdeen very conducive from year 2004. He always asked me how am surviving in my studies, church and the environment. I will never forget your message in late 2004 titled "Remain top-up" and your demonstrations. You always called me Yinka-my man! I will not forget our barbecue exploits! Your words of encouragement to me anytime you stopped by at Faith Clinic were soul-lifting. Thank you for your passion in evangelism which am trying to get to. It was a pity that you could not make the trip to Ayrshire as you promised but I know you have joined the cloud of witness watching us as we march on and proclaiming the lordship of Jesus Christ in Scotland and United Kingdom at large. We missed you. Sleep on in the bosom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ till we meet and part no more. Adieu!

Poem written just for you Grandad....

A treasured man in all our hearts,
You’ve shown us all what love imparts,
A man of God you pathed the way,
With morals, values and courtesy.

Your cherished wife and our dear Nan,
Now offers you her gracious hand,
Your time has come with her you’ll be,
United again eternally.

You hold my heart you wonderful man,
Please keep it safe with you and Nan,
Until the day we meet again,
I love you Grandad, sleep tight, Amen.

Dad
You will never realise how much you touched so many hearts, You weren’t just only my Dad but Best Friend too who would always be there if I needed you.
I hope I manage to live my life half as good as you did yours.
Dad I can’t believe that this day has come, I always expected you to be around forever, Pity you weren’t here just now you always knew what to say.
You and Mum could be so kind and gentle but also knew how to be firm when needed, Both would give their last to help others such a beautiful trait to have.
Dad you taught me so many things along the way you were a Jack of all trades and Master of most, We fished, We poached, We mended / Fixed and bodged, The only thing could never grasp from you as you know was the cooking thing and sure you were not offended by that.
Heaven has certainly gained another Great Angel and you can take your place up there and join our Mum the way it should be together forever.
Hope the Lord is ready for Both of you up there and ready for your help.
Your famous words you said so much “Blessed and Highly Favoured” well I reckon it wasn’t just you but also all the hearts you touched.
I rarely told you that I loved you lots and hope you realised how much I did.
We had so many laughs along the way and especially the last wee while.
Dad I miss you so much – You will always be in my thoughts and in my Heart.

Hardly would a book be sufficient to write about the life of a good man.

The beginning:
Some years ago (season 09/2010), I watched a group of puppets do a rendition of the hallelujah chorus followed by a more hip rendition of Victory by Tye Tribbett. I found that really amusing, entertaining and uplifting as well.
On seeing the lads & lassies behind the curtain (who were operating the puppets), come out, I saw this elderly looking man amongst the group (some teens and other young adults like myself)...and I said to myself… he’s got to be one of the coolest folks on this planet, to be involved in such.
That’s where it all began for me and that’s how I got involved in puppetry myself.
Fast forward years on, there’s been no dull moment knowing you.


A teacher:
You know you’d find a lot of people with wealth of experience who do not share or say anything. This was not the case with him.
So many lessons I have learnt from him. He was always at hand to give counsel. We had lots of good talk and sometime I just sit and marvel wondering… but then, I say this is one of the benefits of having a Granddad (and definitely God sent)…you don’t get this kind of info or talk anywhere else.
I am indeed grateful to God for bringing me in the path such a man who was very open, caring and also passionate about the welfare & upbringing of others. You loved us all. Kind as you were with words, you never failed to correct us when we  went out of line. You loved children so much and they all warmed up to you as well.


A Great Man:
Sometimes the talk of great men sound like a fictitious story. Something we only get to read about from days of old maybe the 1700s, 1800s or see from afar or maybe seen on documentaries, etc.
On a personal note, I have been privileged to know this man to be a great man in person. I tell you...Elder Ron is a true example of a great man. A great man you were indeed. One I walked with, worked with, and I even dined with him.
Speaking of dining with him, I have been privileged to witness/encounter the Chef he was. His cooking skills were brilliant. I may have not had as much as his immediate family did but I can testify to his wonderful & amazing talent when it comes to good food….various dishes, you name it…pies of various forms, bush meat, the rabbits, how about the mince pies? The talk of mince pies is a chapter on its own. If you have never had one of his mince pies…I tell you …you are on a long thing. Those were not your regular mince pies you get from your high street shops!


Looking back:
This great man has left a mark on each and every one of us in one way or another. He touched lives of many not just his immediate nuclear & extended family, the church, but even people in the community as well.
He lived a fulfilled life having ran his race well.
Indeed a great man amongst us has gone to be the Lord.
I am thankful for the privilege of knowing him. He was indeed a friend, our Dad, Granddad, a mentor and a soldier of Christ.


Looking forward to the resurrection morning when we all meet to part no more.

Adieu GrandPa Ron.

There are too many wonderful memories to even begin to share but I'm sure many will agree that your faith inspired us, your amazing cooking taught us and your love linked us all together.

It makes me smile to know that you are now dancing with Nanny. You prayed with dad a lot and helped him with his biggest fear, I bet you have found him now and gave him a big I told you so ⭐️

Love you always

Grandpa, it has been an honour and a privilege to have been within your circle of "Grandpa's Girls".
You were generous with your wisdom, prayers, wise counsel and scrumptious recipes!
I will forever be grateful and cherish your seeking me out to comfort and encourage me in my season of hopelessness and despair.
I remember particularly; a note you had written and given to me during Service.... years ago. You saw my inner turmoil and reached out to comfort me.
For the tears and the hugs; for the laughter and the songs, I say a heartfelt "thank you for your kindness towards me".
May your labour of love be rewarded. ...
Rest in perfect peace. Amen.

I only met you once when I visted with your daughter Rita but that singular encounter was enough for me to know that you loved God very much. And you were very passionate about sharing God's love with anyone who came around you.
You've served your generation well and the fruits are speaking for themselves. So take your well deserved rest in the father's bossom.
I pray that your family and church will know God's comforting love at this time .

My tribute to a fine gentleman and God's servant Elder Ron.

The news came to me as a rude shock but consoled by the exemplary life you lived as a Christian.

Your interactions with me though few, but enormous in its impact.

Thank you for showing us how to love and be true.

Rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Granpa Ron,

I was one of your distant admirers. I admired your marriage and how liberal you were with everyone. How can I and my kids forget the puppet shows in church? Those were magnificent days!
But the most important message I took from you that has stuck with me, is an admonishment you gave to parents to bring up their children in the way of the Lord and not copy western behaviour. I have used this short but profound message to advice mothers!
Although I and my family will miss you dearly, we are greatly excited that a saint is born! The devil had no chance over your life!
Praise God!
I am even more determined than ever before to finish my christian race strong!
Enjoy God's presence! The real thing!

What fond memories I have of you and Pam. I met both of you when I just have my life to Christ. We enjoyed evangelism outside Marks And Spencer's then fellowship at the ACCF on Saturdays,RCCG Sunday mornings and the Holy Ghost party didn't stop there, we would all then fellowship at the Watchman fellowship Sunday afternoons. How I longed for the weekend to come again when Monday came around. How I thank God for how he used both of you in my life, to help me grow as Christian, helped me know who I was in Christ and supported me through the pruning process, you even provided me with emergency accommodation for some nights when the devil attacked my family mightily in which I had no where else to go. That act of love showed me the true body of Christ in action 1 Corinthians 12:26. That is the true church.... Not just on a Sunday.... Not just on a Wednesday but in our practical living 24/7 until God calls us home and this is what you both did. Both of you are an example to us all. I will always remember what you both did for me, our loss is heavens gain, rest in peace, love Tracy and Chioma Odirichukwu

Grand Pa,
I thank God for the exemplary life you lived. You were an inspiration, a role model, a do-er of the Word and always ready to help. You never let a chance pass you by to share the gospel of salvation. Declining health didn't reduce your passion for soul winning and helping others.
We will miss you greatly but are assured that you are in the bosom of the Lord.
Just as the bones of Elisha brought life to the dead, the testimonies of your life will give life to all those who hear it.
Rest on, Gran Pa!
