Your family are doing excellently well and you would be so proud. Rest in peace Bro.
Your handsome and ever radiant son Olujimi Olaniyi....in our thoughts everyday. We are not afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul...."Matthew 10:28". YOU SOUL FOREVER LIVES....Continue to rest peacefully. IT IS WELL.
Your COUSIN & SISTER.
7 years already!!!
It’s still hard to accept that you’ve gone…
These reminder emails come in on your birthday and day of passing every year and I always say a little prayer for your loved ones, especially your wife and children, parents, brothers and sisters.
I am happy to read from Sade that Yinka, Lusheyi and your mini-me are doing well.
I pray that the Lord will continually be with them, protect and provide for them, and meet them at their point of needs now and beyond IJMN
Rest on dearest!
We remember you specially today 7 years on from, even as we never forget daily the incredibly precious son, brother, husband and father you were to us all. We cherish the beautiful memories and the pain of your loss remains fresh. It is comforted though, by the joy of watching your young family - hardworking, resourceful and loving Yinka, beautiful, smart and confident Luseyi and brilliant, talented and courageous Olujimi - thrive and blossom daily. You would be so very proud of them Jimi. God has a great sense of humor, its heartwarming to see how they are showing many of your attributes and even some trademark habits.
Sun re o my dearest brother.
Love you infinitely.
Rest on in peace my brother.
We shared a dorm room at ISI between 1985 and 1987. It really pained me of your loss and even I hadn't seen you since the late 1980s - when you were in Ife and I was at UI - may your soul continue to rest in perfect peace.
I also pray God will continue to strengthen the loved ones you left behind, so they can continue to bear this tragic loss of a loved one.
Sleep in peace, Jimi
The legacies you left behind are still vibrant. Your children are a testament of God's Promises. Yinka is such an amazing woman, you couldn't have chosen a better wife.
Your ISI classmates still remember your lovely smile and talk about you till this day. To say you are not missed by us all would be an injustice to you.
Olujimi Falase, you are blessed. We love you, we miss you but God has been gracious to us all by keeping you alive in our hearts.
Sleep well my dear friend till we meet again.
Loving cousin,
Omobola Samuel-Machado
Dear Jimmy, I didn’t
know you,
but I heard God took you
away early without a hint
He knows best
And in his courts you now rest
looking down on your most beautiful
lady Olayinka and children now in school
Let me tell you
how they miss you:
It’s more than words
can say and much worse than cold sores
For at least fever blisters
could still be cured
but no amount of whispers
could reverse the hand of the Lord
Even without knowing
you, tears from my cheeks
have been flowing
making my eyes green as leeks
For one clearly observes
from distant shores
that tested are peoples’ nerves
as they bear the torch you left behind. I’m yours
Sincerely,
Ola Biobasholuwa
It is forever well with your soul.
Continue to rest in perfect peace dear friend of mine.
It is 17/7, the birthday of our beloved Jimi; the 51st.
Olujimi Olaniyi, omo Agabiokun, oko Olayinka, baba Oluseyi ati Oluropo. Much loved by us all.
Stay blessed, our dear unforgettable one and rest on in God's perfect peace. The Triple O's are doing well, in fact, marvellously. May the Good Lord keep and bless us all. Good day. With love.

May God be with your immediate family... I never met them
And
May God be with Tunde and Shade and also grand them the fortitude to bear your loss
It was with shock i learnt two days ago that you had passed away. It hurt more than anyone could imagine. Why? Because i never got the opportunity to say Thank You.
Many years ago, we had all gone to a pool party and as we were all having fun, some of us in the pool, some lounging and others watching the little ones at the kids pool; my little son decided he wanted to jump into the pool. I saw him from a little way off and made not to run after him as I knew it would have gotten him more excited and he would have run faster.He was watching me, inching closer to the deep end. I knew I had to get to him in seconds or else. But he took off suddenly and jumped right in. Everyone froze.
I knew not to jump in right after him, like magic he came up laughing like he won the lottery,how come? My precious darling Jimi that's how come. Jimi was already in the pool somewhere close to the middle because there was no one at the deep end at the time. He got to him, held his little legs and brought him up. It was magical, he was in an upright position with Jimi holding on to his legs and my son laughing.
Jimi what will i have done, if you hadn't been there, been able to swim under water at that speed .To be honest it happened so fast no one really saw Jimi until he came up with Temi- my son. I have told a lot of people the story how this Angel rescued my son. Jimi you've been an angel for a long time people just didn't know it.
Jimi I will forever be grateful to you.
Continue to sleep in the bosom of the Lord.
I pray that God will continue to be with the families he left behind in Jesus name. Amen!!!
Sun re OOOO Olujimi.
Your MEMORY will never fade. You'll live for all eternity, just as God has promised you. And though you've walked through Heaven's gate, 'We are never far apart, You're still right here, deep with-in our hearts'
Sun reee---oo aburo mi.

Dear Uncle
Jimi was more than an ordinary friend. He was my school daughter's (Sade) brother and because of that link, we were quite close for a while. We were all in ISI together and we lived a walking distance from each other in Surulere, Lagos when we were younger and I often visited them. So it was not surprising when Jimi called me late one night while we were both in England (he was in a 6th Form school in Bradford then), to say he and some of his friends were stuck in London with no where to stay that night. They had come straight from school. At that time, my over-protective mum was there when I received the call and I had the job of convincing her to let them spend the night with us even though I only knew Jimi and not his mates. There must have been something about Jimi she trusted.
Jimi,
This isn't goodbye, know that you are loved and never alone. My love will always be with you and I know that heaven accepts you now that you are home. You have touched many lives with your presence on earth and for that, you will be remembered. I will hold on to the memories of us. Your smile and kind heart have made you a part of every memory. Rest in peace my friend.
Tania.
