This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Dr Olumide Awe, 59, who was born on February 27, 1955 and sadly passed away on September 21, 2014. We will remember him forever.
'We are sincerely grateful for all who have shown us love and support, shared encouraging wods, memories and stood with us in prayer during this time. Thank you to all those who were involved with the planning, preparation and implementation of what was indeed a befitting homegoing service, burial and service of songs for our son, husband, father, brother and friend; Dr. Olumide Oluwagbolahan Awe.
May the Lord God Almightly reward you for your labour of love.
God bless you all abundantly.'

Praising the Lord in time of grieve
In times like this we are encouraged to give thanks and praise the Lord for we are told that in all things we should give thanks -Ephesians 5:20 1Thessalonians5:18,Psalms 107:1,Psalms118:1 Psalms106:1,1Chronicles16:34.
Exactly 2 years ago our friend and brother was called to be with the Lord
We sorely missed him and we thank the Lord for keeping his family and his friends.
The Lord had been a refuge and a fortress for his immediate family now headed by his wife Mrs Bola Awe.We thank the Lord for His faithfulness for He promised and assured us that He will never leave us nor forsake us -Hebrews 13:5b,Deuteronomy 31:6, 8,Joshua1:5,
Olumide did ordinary deeds and simple forms of human helpfulness, he had a generous spirit that is what endeared him to us all .
Whatever we do in word or in deed, we should do it heartily to the Lord and not to men. God takes notice and it delights our Heavenly Father .
Let us continue to support the family in our prayers and also through phone calls,text messages etc ,this goes a long way in gradually reducing the devastating impact of the loss.
May the soul of the departed continue to rest in peace Amen

Forever in our minds
University Of Cambridge -2006
Olumide, with this photograph, I remember fondly your usual caring manner, when you volunteered to drive all of us to University Of Cambridge in 2006 to settle Somi in, on his first day. You acted in loco parentis to all my children till your last days remembering also your taking Semilore, your God-daughter whom you fondly call 'Little Lady' back to School in November 2013.
Your loving good memories will be forever in our hearts. We all miss you.
Requiescat in pace. Legge!
Preparing for the Wedding
Prior to their wedding, Olu and Bola came to Canada to make some important purchases. David and Russ took Olu out to buy" the ring". Chris went with Bola to buy" the white dress". This was a time to get to know one another better and the beginning of a very long friendship. We all had such a wonderful time. It was an honour to help them prepare for a wedding that led to a loving marriage and three wonderful children.
