Sleep on dear friend in the bossom of our Lord.
I miss you so much dear sis Dolapo. Continue to sleep in His glorious arms.
Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord. May the Lord continue to be with the kids u left behind.
Sometimes I just lay back and think about why good people don't live long sometimes, but the answer seems not to come. Then I think about our Lord Jesus Christ and I realized it can only be God's will. Not that we are happy that you are gone from us but surely we believe you are in a better place. Please continue to watch over your loving husband and your beautiful children.
You lived your life like a candle in the wind....Your memories will always be here with us till we meet again. Continue to RIP IBIDOLAPO!!!
Adieu my dear "Dollypino", till we meet again to part no more. Sleep well in God's loving arms and I pray that God comforts your family and everyone else who loved you.
Forever in my heart............
Easter Monday 2015 I woke up to some terrible news. My best friend and sister who hugely shaped my view on life, work, and many other things, passed …
Days have rolled into months and it's almost a year now that you passed onto Glory. I can’t say it has been easy learning to live without you, its been the toughest 365days in my entire life! Your passing was the biggest blow not only to me but to your family and friends also! For me,I can say I have started to make some progress. I can talk about your death without crying though in my closet i still cry and ask why ! My life has been characterised by Joys (which you contributed a lot to) and Sorrows too having lost my beloved brother too exactly 10 years ago.
I’ve come to terms with the fact that I will never see you again for now until i pass unto the great beyond myself or until the trumpet sound. I used to look for you everywhere and i'm sure i could say the same for your beloved Husband, Children, Siblings, Parents, friends and co, hoping that you were watching over me and sending me signs. But I don’t need you to linger anymore, i need to let you go, this is what you would have wanted for me to move on accepting the will of our Father.
So, dearest friend, the boys are growing up and strong! that’s all I have to share for now. I’ll raise a glass for your Thirty-eight birthday this winter, and, as always, I’ll keep you in my thoughts.
Love,

Not seen you in a while except chats I called to invite you for a program, another friends service of song. You were heavy and it wasn't convenient yet you came. Seeing you was comforting and with your ever shinning smile you parted me on my back to say all is well. I saw you to the car, shared a hug and waved good bye..... never knew that would be the last. Two weeks after the news broke...Seem like a movie and the memory refuse to fade off. To ur last words to me I hold on "all is well"
I would like to say a few words about my friend Ibidolapo. She and I have been friends since university, which was over twenty years ago. She has always been there when I needed her and I miss her dearly. Dolapo was a hard-working, intelligent, caring, thoughtful and a very spiritual person. She was very close to her friends and had a very intimate relationship with her family and had a lot of people who cared about her.
One of Dolapo’s best traits was that she always lived her life to the fullest and loved to help people in any way she can. Many people know that we both carried our third pregnancies together and whenever I was feeling down and needed a friend to lean on she was there for me all through that period until i had my baby a week before she had complications and eventually passed. We have been through a lot over the years, but no matter where life took us we knew we could count on one another.
Dolapo taught me a lot over the years. She taught me important things like growing my faith, how to be a better me and the fellowship she has in the place of prayer every morning when we lived together was priceless. But she also taught me simple things like the value of friendship and how to balance career and family.
It isn’t possible to put into words the importance of her friendship and how much Dolapo meant to me. She positively influenced my life in so many ways and I miss her with all of my heart. Dolapo, thank you for your friendship, I will miss you forever and never forget all of the time we spent together.
