You always shower us with prayers and are always smiling every time we see you, just a delight to be around! We will hold on to those memories. Rest in Perfect Peace mummy. You will forever be missed!
Jide & Gani Lawal.

Mummy, a real mother in Israel - in all the 40-odd years that I knew you, you were always kind and gentle and thoughtful and sweet! I am gradually coming to terms with your sudden passing and take comfort you are resting in the Lord's bosom. I take consolation also, and have peace, you are reunited with Daddy, never to part any more. So long and sleep tight, ma, and remain blessed.
Love, from Bisola & Femi

Our lives were enriched by our relationship with you.We will all miss you. Sun re o, Tobi’s Grandma.
Love from
The Obakins

I remember gisting with you about the love you shared with daddy, and I am sure you have long embraced the love of your life and reliving all those memories.

Thank you for been that bond that held us together and thank you for the gift of your son to me.
We are consoled by the fact that you are now amongst the angels, Flying high above the sky with your love still watching over us.

This does not mean the end, for your memory lives on through us and your grandchildren.

Rest in peace mummy.

My mummy my mummy, sisi Arin, Arin e to yi (Arin speaking), glory be to God our heavenly father for a pleasant and fulfilled life you lived.

You were indeed a mother in Israel, you lived your entire life for God reading the word, praying and practically demonstrating the teachings of God to your Husband, children, siblings, extended family, friends and all your loved ones.

You were consistent in prayer and held on to the word of God during difficult challenges, making decisions and interceding on behalf of all your loved ones. You never compromised God for anything, an exemplary life style to follow by all. 

You allowed the light of God shining in you and through you to touch everyone that comes in contact with you.

My mummy my mummy all your support and love shown will never be forgotten, I will forever cherish every moment we spent together.

My mummy my mummy, unique is what you were. Clearly you were indeed a mum in a million (THE BEST). 

You will forever be missed particularly always being the first person to reach out by phone call on all special occasions such as birthday, anniversary etc.

Your last saying while you were on your sick bed; which continues to echo and will forever live with me is "E ma gba adura fun n wa o" (pray for us).

My mummy my mummy, Aya Baba La Sun; I know you are resting peacefully in the Lord.

Forever loved, I miss you dearly.

Sun re (sleep well) till we meet again in the blossom of our Lord in Jesus mighty name.

Mom,
Words cannot describe how I feel about you , loving, prayerful, always joyful, gentle , patient, independent and beautiful.
You are the best mom I could ever have asked for and I’m forever blessed that I had the privilege and honor to call you my mother.
I am grateful that I can hear your voice and prayers in my mind and I will hold on to them dearly. I will always remember the words of wisdom that you have sown in me and I will strive to make you proud.
I love you and I want you to know that you will always be in my heart.
Your loving daughter- Yemi

"Iya ni wura biye biye, ti a ko le fo wo ra..."

Yes Mama, you were priceless, the truest, dearest, more than a mother to me. You were everything, my friend, brother, sister, uncle, aunt and also dad when dad passed away. You waited 23 years with us after dad passed on, and only God knows the inner strength you had to come through with all of us.

When I remember how you stood by me when I had high fever at around 8 or 9 years old in just my shorts after taking a cold shower without drying up and sat on the bed in LUTH with the full A/C on to cool my temperature down and I was shivering and helpless but you sat there with me encouraging and praying for me, I cannot help but shed a tear.

How about the countless birthday celebrations every year till I left for Bolton. (You always made sure all my friends had a good time and was comfortable around the house. You made our house a second home to all). I was only able to return a favour by celebrating your 60th birthday. You did not want to celebrate it because you just lost the love of your life but I surprised you and did it anyway. It was mixed feelings as you were happy and at the same time you missed your hubby. But your friends, brothers, sisters, cousins and children were all there to console you.

You were a precious gift from God, so much beauty, grace, love and patience you possessed. You touched my heart in so many ways, your strength and smile even on dark days made me realise I have an Angel beside me at all times.

Mum, you heard Gods whisper, calling you home, you did not want to leave us, I saw your fight. You loved us so much that you held on tight until Sister Yemi was around you, prayed for you and told you how much we all love you and then your strength was gone and you could no longer hold on. Finally, you gave your hand to God, your maker, and slipped away quietly without telling us goodbye.

I will forever miss you because you have been all I ever needed in my life to become the man that I am today. God gave me the best mum in the world. You taught me to never give up on my dreams but persevere no matter how hard the storms may be and always told me I could tell you anything bothering me. Thank you for the support you gave freely, the prayers, the love and care you showed towards us all. There is no way I can ever pay you back but the plan is to show you that I understand. You are appreciated because whenever I was down, you were always there for me and never left me alone because you cared for me. There are no words that can express how I feel and I appreciate how you raised me and all the extra love that you gave me.

Its so hard to say goodbye to yesterday but yesterday is gone. So today I am thankful for your life well lived. Say hello to Dad, tell him we are in Gods hands and we will be fine.

Continue to rest in peace till we meet again to part no more...
 

You are a woman with a heart of gold. An Epitome of beauty. You became our mother & father when we lost our parents. You gave us love,care & affection,and your constant monitoring is of great value to us. Your words of advice made us what we are today. Thank you ma for standing by us at that turbulent time. I believe angels in heaven will rejoice at your departure.

Rest on mummy,at the bossom of Christ your Lord till we meet to part no more.
AKINJIYAN OLUWAGBENGA T. (FOR THE CHILDREN OF LATE JEROME OLUGBEMI AKINJIYAN)

Mummy Grace Arinola Akinjiyan (Yemi ‘Loiye as I nicknamed her - Mother of Goodness) was an exceptional Mother to her own children and their friends.
Her strong faith and gentle yet firmly held beliefs were truly the mark of a devout Christian Mother.
Yei, you welcomed me and mine into your family without reservation. It was always fun having conversations with you in Ondo. You always responded and ended with prayers for us all. Those were truly precious calls.
You are sorely missed but God loves you best. We take solace in the fact that you are resting easy with our Lord having left a solid legacy in your children, their families and those of us who were fortunate to know you.
Wo se o Yemi ‘Loiye. Sun re o.

Mummy you are '"Absent here but present with the Lord".
I am blessed indeed to have had you as my mother.
You were truly Exceptional and Priceless.
Thank you for your love of God, our Dad and each & every one of us.
Thank you for raising me and showing me the way to go.
Thank you for your unwavering prayerful and practical support in all seasons!
Thank you for tirelessly putting us all first; often at great cost to you!

Thank you for "Never giving up, praying without ceasing".
It has been a privilege to be your daughter and learn from you.
Thank you for Everything!

I miss the times we’d share.
I miss your prayers, stories, laughter, WhatsApp posting / prayers, Facebook stories and of course ‘our disagreements’.

I am eternally grateful to God for your life and accomplishments.
Memories of you I will always cherish.
May your legacy live on in all of your children & grandchildren.
Till we meet again.

Mrs. Grace Arinola Akinjiyan ( Mummy Satellite ) was a woman of faith, courage and conviction and I will miss her greatly.
She will be remembered for so many things but her faith stood out. She was a great example of a follower of Christ and prayed at all times in all situations. She never had a Bible far from her. Her faith and conviction were strong and she always had an encouraging word to say to you. She showed immense courage during challenging times and was always available to support her children and grandchildren.

Whenever she visited she never sat around but participated in all home activities. She was a joy to have around the house and would volunteer to do anything. Her usual saying would be “what do we have to do today.” She demonstrated hard work pays-off and was a great example to us.

She treated all her children and grandchildren with respect and was supportive of their activities. She was patient generous and kind not only to us but all our friends. I will miss her smile, her prayers and her presence. I will miss her phone calls. I will miss her encouragement. Although saddened by her passing-on, I know she now rests in glory with our Lord and that gives me great solace.

Rest in the Lord Mummy

I write this tribute on behalf of my Mother, Mrs. Olanike Alabi; my Late Dad- Mr. Alfred Folarin Alabi. We are comforted by the words of this poem...

An Angel whispered,
"Take my hand and
come with me;
your work here is done."

I went away to a place
where there's no tears nor sorrow,
only laughter and smiles.
There will always be a tomorrow....
- Diana Blokzyl

This is a friendship that dates back to the late 70’s, our first friend and neighbors moving in to Satellite Town. Over the years, we grew to be family beyond friends, celebrating all milestones through thick and thin.... Mummy Opposite as I would call her and “Mummy Keee!” As my mum would shout out and your response of “Owi Beee” was sure to follow... that was the affinity that lied between them over 40 odd years plus...

Still in denial and pained at your exit Mummy. You were indeed a rock, a cheerleader and an angel sent from above to take care of me especially in my trying moments in the last few years. I dare say a Godmother to me and more than a friend indeed to my dear mother, Mrs. Olanike Alabi as you stood selflessly by us through our ordeal in recent times.

Your prayers, sincere advice, genuine, unwavered and unconditional love for my mum, dad and myself knew no bounds.

I recall your consoling words when Daddy passed and you said I should take heart as he wanted to pass with me present. Coming from you, it was very assuring. Your wisdom was straight from above.

A woman of very few words but your action spoke more.... I cannot but reference your prayers once again. Genuine and piercing like a two edged sword, touching every bone and marrow, targeted at lifting heavy burdens. I’ll MISS that.

Gosh... February, we still sat together discussing and you consoling me about Daddy. Little did I know what lied ahead. How I feel this “Gbas- Gbos” of pain ... but we can’t question the Almighty. You mean the era of close 4 has finally come to an end. Indeed... life is in phases and we need to make and keep good memories for the future.

You would always rise to the occasion to assist in the little way you can. Ohhh how words fail me to describe how amazing a soul you were.

Introspectively, we seemed to connect on many levels and issues without saying much. You were a breath of fresh air, caring and compassionate to the core. You visited mummy at mine as often as you could despite the strain and the distance.

I remember our last outing together where we went shopping and I insisted that you had to take a matching pair of slippers with mine. You were tired that day and complained about that nagging headache... that headache which we should have paid closer attention to than just a casual medical check.

Very smart and discerning, an encourager to the core. I am constantly reminded by your thoughtful messages, calls and life advice. Keeping a constant eye on daddy for me. I am indeed glad that I got closer to you in last few years Mummy, yours was a pure, selfless and unadulterated love.

Rest in the Almighty’s bosom ... where I am assured that you are. You have left us with wonderful memories of how to live in old age.

Mummy you journeyed through life well and have now highlighted at your stop. We will keep your fond memories in our hearts as we continue life’s journey emulating those attributes you displayed that brought us joy till the time we meet at the Lord’s feet.

Our thoughts and prayers also go to my siblings and the rest of the family and pray that we are all comforted by the Almighty during this period, taking one day at time...


God bless

Mama was so much loved by us all here in Bolton. 
We were saddened by her passing to glory, but grateful to God for long life, blessed family and her commitment to Christ.
Rest on mummy in the bosom of the Lord.

Dear Mummy, words really failed me at this moment to express exactly how I feel but I thank God for a beautiful life you spent.
I can still remember your beautiful smile, hear your voice and your humility is next to none. We were always happy to have you visit us in Bolton.
Thank God for the opportunity to celebrate your 80th birthday which was full of wonderful memories. I’m still keeping the hair extension you gave me during one of your visits in your memory ma
You are greatly missed Mum but we believe you are in a better place and we shall all meet on the resurrection morning.

Adieu Beloved Mum❤️

My dear aunty, you lived a fulfilled and loving life and I thank God for a life well spent.
The last time we spke, you effortlessly smoothed over some brewing family issues as you were a woman of substance and always worked at uniting the family. And you did so so very well.

You were so accommodating and caring of all. When your big brother,my dad died, you humbly stepped in to his shoes in many respects. Though I was no longer in Nigeria, I do know you were selflessly there for my siblings without question and not expecting anything in return. And I once more thank you posthumously.

As you join your siblings Labanji my dad, uncle Fiayo, aunty Mercy and of course your parents, may you all be united with Our Lord Jesus in joy and peace in heaven where you live for ever and ever.
May God keep you among His people and may you see your Redeemer face to face and enjoy the sight of God forever. Amen.
God bless the whole family you left behind. Adieu aunty; rest in perfect peace.

You were always there to give your support to everyone. I am thankful for all the lives you touched, including mine. Rest In Peace mummy

Ooooh Mummy satelite, we love you but God loves you more. I was so shocked when I heard of the bad news but who are we to question God. I appreciate the fact that Mummy is the archetect of my working in LUTH. I will always love you. Rest in peace.

Oh mommie how I miss you. The awful anguish and grief I have is unlike anything I have ever experienced. No words can express my grief of losing you. Memories of your face, warm smile, large heart and good deeds bring tears to my eyes every minute of the day.
I love you dearly mum.. I am completely heartbroken that you are gone forever, it’s so hard to face reality. Goodbye Iye Loiye.

Hmmm. Mummy, what a life living, giving and loved. You were always there to give your support in your own little way. It's still difficult for me especially to accept the fact that you are gone but who are we to question God who knows the best for you. You have touched so many lives and got lots of CHILDREN. You were a MOTHER to all. God rest your soul.

You were a support to many,a source of encouragement and blessing.Rest in peace Mama Satellite.

Thankful for the time we were able to share with you. I appreciate your endless prayers, support, and everlasting love you have shown me. I appreciate the family that you have built and raised. Your light has certainly made all of our lives a little brighter. You will be dearly missed. May you rest in eternal peace and may I continue to make you proud.

On that Thursday I saw you enter gboyegas car, to take you to the hospital. We acknowledged each other, with beautiful smiles. I didn't know that would be the last I will see of you. You were a mother in a million. Gentle, quiet, but with disipline. Rest well mum.

Mummy was full of love and care for all, she called to thank every single person that attended her 80th birthday in 2019, you will be greatly missed ma, we love you but God loves you more, continue to rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Mum, it's so hard to believe you are gone. Every time I summon the courage to write, only tears flowed...
But finally even in the midst of the tears, this must be done.
Thank you for the gift your life brought to us and especially the gift of your son to me. Your love for God and the things of God was worthy of emulation. You sowed love and prayers into our lives as your children and everyone that surrounds you. Rising up early in the morning to commune with God was your passion. You not only went the extra mile for me on several occasions, you did likewise for my siblings and family. I only have to call and you were always there to answer.
You saw the best in every situation, declaring God's way will prevail. You made even the most insignificant things memorable. Your impact in the life of many is unquestionably remarkable. You never took your health and well being for granted, however the all knowing God has called you home at his time. We may not see you again, but we will always cherish the memories we had with you and let it live on. Love you mum, sleep in peace.

Dearest Mummy,

You always embraced us, encouraged us, supported us, celebrated us and loved us in a way that made us feel so special. As I have grown older I have grown to admire your character, your spirit and your nature in a new light. I marvel at the impact that it has had across generations, and the legacy it has bought forth. Although we no longer hear your voice physically,the loving words you have deposited in our hearts over the years will never depart. God bless you Mummy and rest in perfect peace. Thank you for your love and for being a shining example to us all.

My beautiful Grandma, I know you will always be there, in our hearts, watching over and guiding us. No words can describe how much I miss you. Thank you for always believing the best in me and encouraging me, your kindness, love and wisdom are all the things I admire from you. I’ll love you forever and always.❤️

Grandma, from my beginning until your end,
You were by my side,
Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you.
You taught me more than I ever knew.
I am forever grateful for your love,
And I know you’re looking down from above. I Love you Grandma❤️

Grandma you were a blessing to all and even though you are no longer with us the memories we have with you will never depart from us. Thank you for the love you have showed me and may you rest in peace with the lord in Jesus name. Love you always ❤️

A mother of 5
A grandmother to 9
A great independent woman who made great impacts in our lives.
A loving lady who put 100% effort in everything she does
A woman passionate about being fit
We will always love you grandma wherever you may be.

Thank God for Mummy's life and for the amazing legacy she has left in the wonderful individuals she raised. We believe she is resting in God and we look forward to the reunion at God's Throne.
May the Lord comfort and strengthen all the family and loved ones.
