This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Abiola Ishola, 52 years old, born on June 16, 1968, and passed away on March 10, 2021. We will remember him forever.
My dear brother ❤️, on March 9th, l went through the program of your church burial. At that point, it didn't even occured to me the following day was your memorial. It's been 3 years and l still haven't been able to read through that booklet fully.
You have never and can never be forgotten. I know you live on, though not with us on this device.
I try to comfort myself that heaven is a better place but l really wish you were here with us.
You are daily missed. It's a dream am still haven't woken up from. My solace is hanging on to the perfect will of God. He understands my frailty. I rest on His comfort alone. Continue to sing with the angels my dear brother.
It's been one year of God's faithfulness yet of unexplainable questions and confusion.
You are remembered daily, fondly and missed greatly.
I love you but obviously God wanted you by His side. You fought a good fight of faith and you kept the faith. Continue to rest at in His bosom free from all the wickedness of this evil world.
Knocking knocking on heaven's door, knocking knocking on heaven's door.
Yesterday June 16, 2021 was your 53rd birthday. I miss you so much, your smiles and usual appreciation to respond when l call to greet you on your birthday you will say: Ese ma. Then you will say some prayers being the pastor that you are.
I had no choice but to thank and praise God for the numerous blessings He be stores but my heart was also full of pain that l wouldn't see you again until resurrection morning.
I cried and was full of so many questions l didn't get answers for.
You kept some information to yourself that l fell you should have shared with us much earlier.
I am still waiting on GOD for answers to grant peace to my troubled soul.
God taught us in His word that light always overcome darkness. We/you prayed, had faith that we will overcome all the odds that faced us. We kept serving Him and believe Him inspite of all the challenges.
I know He is unquestionable God but He also understands my frailty.
Rest on my brother Henry Omokehinde Abiola Ishola. Love you always and miss you greatly.
My Brother
Our Memories of yesterday will last a Lifetime
We'll take the best, forget the Rest and someday will find that these are the Best of times.
May God bear Biola on gentle wings to his eternal peaceful rest. May God uphold the entire family with mercy and grace; May He specially care and heal Bisola his twin sister. Rest in the Lord, gentle brother!
It’s difficult to write a tribute in memory of a gentle soul, humble, ever smiling, quietly strong and a friend, Biola Ishola. Lots to say but maybe the words of the poem below, words that perhaps Biola himself would have said to us, would be more fitting:
“Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free I’m following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard Him call. I turned my back and left it all.
If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss; Ah yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much; Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my life seems all too brief, Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free.”
Who could have imagined your passing to glory so sudden and so soon? You were such an amazing man who touched everyone around with your infectious smile and large heart.
Mr Ishola, as I fondly called you, exemplified humility, selflessness and sacrifice. As you journey to a glorious eternity, God will console and keep your family strong with his awesome powers. It is well

Abiola, It's still a shock that you have left us... The last time we spoke was in 2018... had I known that God will call you home soon, I would have made more effort and attended that event...You were quiet but firm...more like a gentle bear! You've gone too soon, but God is the almighty, the giver of life!!!. Rest in perfect peace till we meet to part no more!.
May God console your wife Folake, Bisola your twin sister and the rest of your family!
We kept on praying and trusting God that our beloved Abioĺa would recover from the sickness only to hear of your passing from my friend- Abimbola(your loving sister). I just pray for comfort for the family you have now left behind. I know you fought hard to stay alive but God knows best! May your soul rest in perfect peace. My few interactions revealed that you were very respectful. It is well with your soul Abiola! Amen.
Gone far too soon. My thoughts and prayers are with your loving family for God to comfort them in a way that only He can. Rest peacefully dear - may the warm memories of you, comfort our hearts.
BIola, the day God called you home, you left us with precious memories. You were a loving brother and faithful friend You’ll surely be missed Rest in heaven’s bosom
Biola, very full of life, jovial and a gentleman. You were a carrier of light. Shine on even in the great beyond. Sleep well in the bosom of our creator till we meet to part no more. RIP

Biola, I was shocked and sad about your passing. The last time we spoke was when I was moving to STATES finally,23 years ago. I still remember your voice, your smile like yesterday. You’re a very good friend. I loved you very much. Adieu, my childhood love, adieu ish father! May God give your love ones and especially your beautiful wife fortitude to bear the loss. Good night my friend.
Mmmmmm... Biola....the news of your passing numbed my whole being and I’m still in shock as I write this.You went too soon but God knows why. You were very special to me at a point in my life but due to nature, life happened, we drifted apart and went our different ways.You had your family and I had mine and life continued. We met couple of times on different occasions over theand family events and the last time we met again was in the year 2017 at Funmi Ajayi’s mom birthday party and I introduced you to my hubby and you were so happy for me. You really did take very good care of us and you made sure that our table was littered with assorted food and drinks . But today you are with angels and watching over us.Your memorial lingers on and I will never forget that laughter of yours. May all your loved ones be consoled with the fact that you are now with your maker where the angels are rejoicing at your arrival. Heaven has gained a special being. Rest on Abiola Ishola
Abiola my brother, you were so amiable and loving. Growing up together, leaves me with unforgetable memories. You were full of faith and held on to God's healing power until the end. You remain unshakable, unwavering in God.
You lived by your convictions which turns out to be truth 9 times out of 10.
Its so unbelievable that we will not see temporarily I loved you and, will always do but God wants you home now.
You are the best brother, friend, child, father, husband anyone can ever hope for.
