This memorial website was created in memory of a comrade. 

Mr. Richard Feyi SOYOMBO  - Former NIDOA CHAIRMAN


  When the news got to me yesterday morning, it was unbelievable. Richard how very quiet you tiptoed into our world, silently, only a moment you stayed.         But what an imprint your footprints have left upon our hearts. Richard was a Good Jolly Fellow, man of high ethics and integrity. It's with sadness that we lost one of our rare gem, he was one of us that we acknowledge with desolation that he was exceptional. Richard was inimitable,easy going,gentle soul,born leader.

He was very forthright, classy and matchless.He was truly a one off,
irreplaceable in every sense.  The family of NIDOA despondency and grief know no bounds because Richard was a unique gift from God to our nation that he loved so much.He was a very brave warrior who was never scared of death.

RICHARD can be proud of the obvious fact that he stood for something while here on earth with us. He was a great Nigeria patriot endowed it's nostalgic memory there in, he never shied away from any difficult national issue or task and he always exhibit uncommon and unparalleled courage in contributing his quotas and always volunteer whenever it mattered most. He so much wanted a better Nigeria for all of us.

RICHARD had a hugely successful and unblemished career in international business and he used his talent to make a huge difference wherever he found himself, giving many Nigerian and non-Nigerian a strong voice to be proud of.   I know it is never about how long one lives but we'll and I do believe that while it is good to have an end to the journey, this one gone so soon.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,love leaves a memory no one can steal, although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory of Richard help comfort us tomorrow. I commensurate with immediate family,wife and children Richard left behind and pray fervently that God in his infinitive mercy grant them fortitude and strength to carry on. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.And as you comprehend this profound loss, let yourself cry knowing each tear is a note of love rising to the heaven. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower, you will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind.You don't get over it, you just get through it.You don't get by it, because you can't get around it.It doesn't get better; it just gets different. 

Everyday.....Grief puts on a new face. You will be missed.  

 Adieu Comrade !!!!  
 
Adeiu good soldier !!!!    

DEATH CAN NOT KILL WHAT NEVER DIES. THE FUN MEMORIES LIVE ON!!

Good morning, when Richard came to Brazil on an institutional exchange, he first came to Sao Luis - Ma, we met and became friends so much so that he stayed with us for a few weeks because when they arrived they rented a house in a not very good neighborhood, he gave me as a souvenir one of your garments, I will send the photo.

Feyi,

All you did was help, give of yourself, encourage success, show love, and believe that dreams do come true. Ore, I miss you but I have come to know that we are all but on a journey. May the perfect grace of God remain on your family.

March 25, 2015, was like yesterday like a dream but its reality gradually stares us at the fact that you had gone so soon, however, we strongly believe that death cannot kill what never dies, the fun memories of you, your unparallel passion, and love for humanity and our culture are unmatchable. There was never a finer, amiable, more passionate man ever exist. Sleep well in the lord. Afiyen!!!!

Dear Friend,
As you once said to me "some things never change", you my friend are one of those things. The lives you touched, the legacies you left, the dreams you inspired, the accomplishments and paths you put in place continue in your honor. So many times I have heard news of Nigeria and within the realm of your work world and knew our heavenly Father had a plan for you. Forever missed, never gotten!

Feyisayo, you are lovingly remembered today as you always are. 

You were much larger than life and that's why you still live so prominently in the lives and hearts of all those you loved.

You touched everyone you came across, whether it was through your ending jokes( I know smile at the ones I used to roll my eyes at!)

So much has happened since you left, but as Zeze said, you're very much aware of it all and may have orchestrated a few! 

Always and forever!

It seems like yesterday I was laughing at something hilarious you were telling me! I smile as I type this thinking of how you made me laugh! I still hear wonderful things about you from people whose lives you touched. Dear friend I know you are dancing with the Angels and have a new role in a place of joy! You left a wonderful legacy here on earth with the work you did for others and it goes without saying your children who meant the world to you. You live on here in our hearts! You are truly missed dear friend!

Not a day goes by, you're not lovingly remembered. Through the tears of missing your physical presence, there's smile that comes from the assurance that you're at the feet of Jesus Christ, and that is the best place to be ever. I miss you terribly and love you. But as much as I love you, He who loves you even more now has you.
Keep on flying baby, God has you.

Always and Forever

Feyisayo, you would have been 58 years old today. It would been the same way we celebrate your birthdays. We would have had the crew over for dinner and wine. It would be the usual lively gathering, filled with your unending jokes, with everyone keeling over with laughter and me rolling my eyes at the ones I had heard so many times over! 

The memories of times past play over and over and I wish more than anything that you're on one of your trips, but this was just longer, and any moment now, I'll get that call that your flight is scheduled to arrive, and I should pick you up from the airport.

The pain of your physical absence is strong, but your spiritual presence is even stronger and that gives some comfort. The good seeds you sowed during your time on earth continues to yield its harvest.
Everything is different without you, but we thank God. 
By the way, I'm sure you got the rose I sent you through Mummy. I know you're reunited with her and loving it!
I miss you very much, but I trust God.

I love you.

Always and forever

It was a shock to find out you have passed on to do the lords work. It has been 10 years since you took me to Nigeria to meet the wonderful people to find Solar partners. I have found that dream 10 years to late and wished to make you a part of it. I am devastated that you won't be here to see it happen. I was and will always be your friend.

Remembering good times my friend. Such a smart, wise man who loved his family and friends.

Feyi, I still can not believe you've been gone for so long

April 20, 2023
Dear Brother Feyi:
The memory of the last evening we spent together at your residence in SF (about twenty of us), with plentiful food and drinks, playing and enjoying beautiful music and on demand videos of your most recent trips to attend the Carnival in Rio, Brazil and the elaborate plans we started making to attend the 2016 carnival with you as our guide, confirm the apt adage: "For man proposes, but God disposes; neither is the way of man in his own hands" (Proverbs 16:9). RIP-Sun re O.

Thank you

March 26, 2021
Many thanks to all of you that continue to keep Feyi’s memories alive.
