Daddy , right from the first day we met we jelled together. You never treated me as your daughter in law but like a daughter. You were there when I needed to pour my heart out and you gave listening ears.
You laughed that I was your senior because we shared the same birth month but mine came before yours.
You were a wonderful man.
I will forever miss you.

Grandpa was my friend. He helped me in everything. He taught me to recite numbers in yoruba. He was always there for me anytime my daddy or mummy wanted to beat me. We ate together must especially swallow.
He tells me stories about my daddy when he was young.
Grandpa when I heard of you death I cried knowing that I won't see you again. I will forever miss you.
Oluwadamilola Adeyemi.

Im honoured to have known you and become a son to you. I know that you are in a better place, soliticing for eternal bliss for all of us. I write this tribute with joy in my heart that you lived a great, good and kind life. You are forever cherished.

By the insect and the serpent, and the beast. But the man who keeps his body, and his thought, Worth bestowing on an offspring love-begot, Then the highest earthly glory he was won, When in pride a grown-up daughter or a son Says *That’s Father* Adieu Worthy Deacon Adeyemi. We’ll always remember that special smile, that caring heart, that warm embrace, you always gave us. You being there for Mummy porta and your children, through good and bad times, no matter what. We’ll always remember you *triple A* because
there will never be another one to replace you in our hearts, and the love we will always have for you. Your death left a scar in our hearts but your legacy will stand in our life. Love leaves a memory no one can steal, but death leaves a memory no one can heal.

Obviously speaking, when mirror is broken you no longer see your image. On that dreadful day (19th February 2021) that worthy Deacon Adeyemi Adisa Abayomi departed this world to join the saints it has not been same again for me.
Deacon Adeyemi you were the mirror at which I looked at myself and now that you are gone I feel it in my soul. My solace is the fact that you live a righteous life. Every moments of your life is like a book on a path towards heavenly bliss..
Deacon when I close my eyes the image of you is all I see. The summary of our togetherness from cradle to your exit lingers on my mind, it’s a memory that even death cannot erase. Your departure has made me broken and transformed me into a man. Not by gender but by willingness to do what great men do knowing that death is the end of every mortal. The transformation that life is vain and everything in it is vanity. Rest in the Lord true soldier of faith. Adieu my mirror. I don’t have the words to express how much I miss you. I was with you when you breathed your last. I know you are watching over all of us, Adunni (the love of your life) – whom you loved so much ever since. my 3 brothers whom you brought up to be respectful men, daddy’s girl, Ayomide and all your grand children. We all miss you terribly. I miss you terribly. I speak with you all the time and I know you can hear me. I love you Deacon Adeyemi
Adieu my Hero. He never made a fortune, or a noise. In the world where men are seeking after fame; But he had a healthy brood of girls and boys. Who loved the very ground on which he trod.
They thought him just little short of God; Oh you should have heard the way they said his name –Father. There seemed to be a loving little prayer in their voices, even when they called him ‘Dad.’ Though the man was never heard of anywhere, As a hero, yet somehow understood
He was doing well his part and making good; And you knew it, by the way his children had Of saying ‘Father.’ He gave them neither eminence nor wealth,
But he gave them blood untainted with a vice, And opulence of undiluted health.
He was honest, and unpurchable and kind; He was clean in heart, and body, and in mind. So he made them heirs to riches without price –This father. He never preached or scolded; and the rod –Well, he used it as a turning pole in play.
But he showed the tender sympathy of God. To his children in their troubles, and their joys. He was always chum and comrade with his boys,
And his daughter – oh, you ought to hear them say *Father* Now I think of all achievements ‘tis the least. To perpetuate the species; it is done.

Deacon Adeyemi was an incredible man. He provided for his family and made sure his children had the guidance they needed. I am grateful for the worthy Deacon and I miss him every day.
Today I am remembering my worthy Deacon and the great memories we shared. He was one of a kind and my best friend. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of him and smile.
Worthy Deacon was my biggest fan and my greatest role model. I could call him at any time and he always has a solution to my problem. Life is different without him, but I am grateful I got to call him my dad, Baba Port Harcourt, Worthy Deacon.
When I remember Baba Port Harcourt, I smile each time. He was a jokester and he made us all laugh. He taught me not to take life too seriously. He was always in good spirits, even until the day he died.
Worthy Deacon was my hero. He was the most courageous and resourceful man. I never questioned if he loved or cared for me because he made it so obvious. I still feel him with me each day and I am living life for the both of us now.

Worthy DEACON, if i am asked to describe or define the meaning of a selfless person I will make reference to you, If I'm asked to define patience I will make reference to you, if am asked to give an example of a man with the heart of God I will make reference to you, if am asked to define a disciplinarian I will make reference to you, if am I asked if I know a man that fears God, I will make reference to you, Daddy you never denied us anything we wanted in anyway you were ready to make yourself very uncomfortable for us and people around you to be comfortable you never took the things of God for granted up till the time of your last breath. At the final hour of your journey to meet with the Almighty Father, Daddy you were always asking " what is the time" because you knew it was time for you to go, hmmmmmmm. Baba ko ko as we joke always, you taught me and everyone of ur kids many things about life specifically you gave me a password about life and the future. Baba Deacon I'm glad to say that you were a complete definition of a father of which I'm forever grateful.

Daddy there is no uncertainty that you are in a place of rest, joy, peace, with the Almighty Father.
Continue to rest the bosom of the lord.

You are forever missed.

My father, my daddy, my mentor, my adviser, BABA DEACON, BROTHER ADISA, WORTHY DEACON, BABA PORT HARCOURT I could go all day calling you all your names. Daddy you thought me alot you showed me things that no one knew your words still sound in my ears the love you showed us the care ha! Daddy, where are we going to see or hear them from again? Hmmmm! Death!!! It pains me more because you never said goodbye you never told us anything but I still give GOD the glory because he knows best and I know your in a place of good rest. Daddy I will always talk and tell people about you because you where a great man, a man of your words, integrity and intelligent. Daddy I love you and I will always love you even in death.

I am grateful and bless the name of the Almight God for his grace, favour, mercy and priviledge for giving me such an an amazing, lovely, simple, caring, trust worthy, honest, quiet, respectful, funny, and an easy going man as my husband and best friend, living together as husband and wife for over
44 years.

My honey,” baby mi” as I proudly call himwas a honest and dutiful husband, a father to all, he was strict and firm when he had to, and he loved everyone as he loved his family. He sacrificed a lot to ensure his children had good education and were successfull in their endeavours.

Honey was a meticulous husband And father and paid attention to minute details. He was a Strong believer and had absolute faith in God, Which led to his desire to be with the Lord.

Good night my honey, my best friend, my baby. the love of my life, my sweet heart, olowo Ori mi, Oko mi, the best man I've ever known, I will always love you forever and ever. I know you are in a better place in the bosom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

You will forever be in my heart I will forever miss you.
Rest well my love. Till we meet to part no more.

Your loving wife,
Adunni Abimbola Adeyemi.

My dearest Father,

I cant believe i am writing this so soon. To me, this is soon. We had plans, we knew what we wanted and talked about it. But it's so unfortunate you had to go be with the Lord. One thing I am assured of is that you are resting in God's bosom and watching over us.

Thank you for being the awesome dad you were, you were the best husband, father, grandfather, mentor, spiritual leader, and so much more. if there's anything like a "proverbs 31 man" i am very sure that would describe you perfectly.

You were funny, intelligent, caring, a wise counsellor, my rock, You were Everly present whenever i needed someone to talk to. Ever listening ears. I miss you so much daddy, My Baba!

it could take me eternity to write about you, and I thank God for giving me the priviledge to be born of you.

i love you daddy, I wish it didn't have to be now. But God knows best.

Rest on my first love, Rest on my Father, Rest on a worthy deacon.

Till we meet to part no more.

Love from your daughter
Mrs Damilola Okegbemiro (nee Adeyemi) "iya kekere"
