Oluwasesan my darling, the kingdom of God reached its fulfillment in your life exactly 10 years ago today. You have gone ahead but not forgotten. Time really flies but God has indeed been faithful! We thank and glorify His name for the grace that has seen us this far.
Thank you for all you were. You will always be remembered for times shared and the legacy of good works in Christ.
May your peaceful rest remain eternal and may God continue to keep and sustain all you left behind.
Grace, Peace and Strength be multiplied on to us in Jesus name.
Love today and forever.
- Abimbola

Uncle, I can’t believe it was 10 years ago in my brother’s church in Houston Texas, when the news of your glorious but premature exit came through my phone, it was the worst 6hour flight back home processing the grave news, the reality that I would never see you in person again or listen to your wise counsel.

I still miss you so much, so many things remind me of you and so many additions to our family that would have gladdened your heart. You really were gone too soon.

Continue to enjoy your rest my gentle egbon till we all meet to part no more amen .

10years already.. I miss you so much, but God has been faithful. Continue to rest in peace.

My darling peace loving Uncle Sesan, we would have been celebrating another birthday for you today but we cannot question God.
You will always live in our hearts and the memories remain vivid.
Continue to rest in the bosom of your maker my darling egbon.
Sun re o, omo a kiniranyin ( ko mun koni)

Hmmmm! Hard to forget. No one can fill the vacuum created by your exit. May God continue to grant you eternal rest in His kingdom and take care of all your own here on earth. Peace Perfect Peace.

Dad, continue to rest in peace. It's 8years already. Hmmm, God has been faithful....I tried to be busy all day, I just didn't want to miss you too much today. But, I still find myself remembering all the times we spent together. Thank you for all the sacrifices and the love. I wish you got to meet Motirireoluwa, but God knows best. I MISS YOU SO MUCH. Continue to rest in peace. I know you probably won't get to read this too, but it feels good to write anyway. I love you so much Dad.

Daddy, its your birthday today. Happy posthumous birthday. You are always on our minds. You are forever missed. Rest on daddy.

Darling Uncle, I can't believe a year has gone by since you answered a higher calling! I miss you so much; words are inadequate! Your legacy of peace, unity and service to the kingdom of God lives on. Continue to rest in the bosom of our Lord till the grand reunion. Sun re o! Omo ugbo eho, oye ugba!. Omo alaye gbede gbede b'oni layin!, Omo Orubu loye! Omo a kini ranyin......

A life that touches others goes on forever.
You are held in our hearts for ever.

Darling,today makes it a year that you left us to be with our Saviour who you loved and served with all your heart and whose love for you was also unquantifiable. It's been a whole year without your word of wisdom, comfort, gentle personality and a warm heart for all around you. You were such a source of strength for me and everyone that came in contact with you. Yours was a life wonderfully impactful. Thank God for the grace to use your God given talent for the benefit of mankind and the service of God. You were a kind Man with a bright and godly mind. I am grateful for the life we shared. It was such a rare but wonderful opportunity. God allowed us to work in love, in peace and harmony. It could only have been by His special grace. We thank God for His presence in our midst and for the wonderful testimonies of the last one year. We miss your person and your worth but where you are is a source of pride to us for we know that you are at peace on the right arm of our father because you lived and walked with Christ, His son and your exit is sure for a Higher service to Him. It still hurts, but i have learnt to think more of what would make you happy. This includes appreciating life more and getting closer and closer to God. It is, so that on the last day, we can see each other again. Resurrection after all said and done, is the only good ending to the story of life. Continue to rest in peace Oluwasesan "Ajilaran" omo Yeye. We give God the glory for giving us a hope and a future - Jer 29:11

Uncle, You are deeply missed. Trust you are resting in the bosom of the Lord. You went too soon but your memory will remain evergreen on all of our hearts. Adieu...

Sweet blessed memory.
Ao pade... lese Jesu.
The Lord bless wife, children and loved ones left behind.

Today, we should all be at Okota, celebrating your 68th birthday and drinking from your timeless words of wisdom and experience, but alas its not to be so as you are in a better place now resting from all your travails and toils. You made a mark, difficult to erase. Your infectious smile, warm hugs and distinct voice still resonates through times and space and you are simply unforgettable. I wish to say HBD in absentia but i think a more fitting word to say today is ''Keep resting, Gods General, till we meet to part no more''

Olusesan, my covenant brother and friend, today would have marked another day of celebration of your life on this planet earth but alas the Angels chose to have you amongst them and celebrate with you in heaven. We thank God because your exit from the stage is for a higher purpose. We also celebrate your life today. a life well lived in the service of God and humanity. Our God has stopped the tears and my grief is suppressed by the knowledge of who you were and where you are right now. I celebrate your worth, your weight, your spirituality, your strength, your impact, your influence, your purpose and all that you stood for.
I hold on to my heart, fond memories of our lives together. I am comforted, knowing that those we love never really die as they live forever in our hearts. I can imagine your nice smiles as the Angels celebrate your birthday today. Enjoy your day darling and rest on peacefully, we will meet again for sure, at the Lord's supper.

- your loving wife Abimbola

OTUNBA S.E. FALADE

"Uncle Sesan, you were a pillar in Temidire Kingdom. A man of many wisdom, full of Godly counsel, a moderator.

Whenever I visit Uncle, I am never in a hurry to leave and when I eventually leave, I am always loaded with so much knowledge and
wisdom impacted through his words.

The word of God in Jeremiah 1:4-5, can be used to describe Uncle Sesan .
It says  " Before I formed you in the womb I knew you
          before you were born I set you apart;
         I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

You spoke like a Prophet, you walked and lived in the fear of God.
You trusted in the Almighty God that you served even to the very end.

You said to me the last time we spoke that '' when all medical,
 physicians fail, God will never fail"

The Almighty Father has taken you to rest from the labour of this world
You are resting in the bosom of Abraham.

We your brothers and the young ones will follow in the legacy that you have left behind.
And on the Resurrection Day we shall all meet to part no more!

'THE EXIT OF A COLOSSUS'
Uncle,
Your exit was indeed very painful and has deeply grieved us. Day after day, year after year,we had fervently prayed and had hoped that you will eventually overcome this repressive hand of illness that has gripped you. All the same, we are gratified that you are in a better place, you are with the Lord, you have finally gone to rest far away from the pains and vicissitudes of this world.
Now, the stark reality that has crept on us is that you have left us. Undoubtedly, it is excruciating, but we have come to accept the painful reality.
You were one of a kind, unique and positively different in many ways. You were brilliant, knowledgeable, articulate, versatile, plain and forthright. An embodiment of ideals. Different people see you from different perspectives. In all, everybody saw a desirable shinning light, an icon, a colossus, a giant, physically, mentally and spiritually.
We will miss your warm and humane nature. Your gentle and disarming smile that has come to represent your personal trade mark will be greatly missed.
However, your exit was not without worthy and remarkable contributions to all those who have crossed your path in life and mankind in general.
Against the background of family generational mentoring, you were not slack when it got to your own time. In the 60's and early 70's when we were young amd impressionable, you gave us effective mentoring especially when we entering secondary schools. As our uncle who was available for us, we looked up to you for leadership and guide which you did successfully. As a role model, you set a good precedent of legacy of focus and relentless hard work. You discreetly fired up our zeal, courage and determination to be successful in life. Indeed, your good works will never be forgotten .
In a seven hour deep interaction with you two days before your transition unto glory, you spoke eloquently on diverse subjects bothering on the intricacies of family, business, politics, health, The Amuro Royal Family etc. Little did I know that it was a valedictory. For ever, all those profound valedictory messages will remain green in my memory. In all of these, one thing is crystal clear. You remain 'UNFORGETTABLE' in our minds.
You have fought a good fight, you have done your best, you have kept the faith.
As we are busy rounding up on your burial programmes, Sleep well Uncle!!! Continue to sleep well in the bossom of your Lord and creator!!!
Kato rerin o digbo, Kato refon o dodan!!
Katori Ebenezer Olusesan omo Falade,
O dorun alakeji, Sun re o baba oninure, aguntasolo!!
Remembered by your nephew
Prince 'Tunji Falade.
(Fondly called Tee-Jay by you).

The greatest joy of living is in giving. I'm sure you derived this joy because you lived your life for others. You touched many lives with your smile and deep word of wisdom. You were an icon of unwavering faith till you breathe your last, i have a feeling this world no longer deserved you, thats why God took you home, otherwise your faith would have seen you through. You fought the good fight to the end, now you are with the saints triumphant. Rest on Daddy, we will see you on the resurrection day.

When God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. He put His arms around you and whispered, "My son come to me". Although we loved you dearly we could not make you stay.
Oh! a golden heart stopped beating.
Hard working and loving hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to PROVE to us "HE only takes the best.
We shall meet again at the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Sun re o.

Dad....hmmm! Not knowing where to start from is to say a whole lot happened. I will never forget the day I told you I wasn't writing JAMB again and the impact you had in my life, never can I forget my pregnancy challenge, how knocking on your door @ 2 a.m, you were there to answer me and all you did was to pray by speaking in tongue and your words were'I will carry it to term'. Even though in all our discussions you were still strong. Your words keep coming into my memory, as I won't forget your phrase,'Ni igbe aiye omo eda eniyan'. My few discussion with you was,'the day you walk with your legs is the day you'll know you are better''. Little did I know you will be walking with father of all fathers.
I miss your wise counsel and would never forget all your prayers and advice. You never played with God's words, you struggled even death. I take solace in the fact that you are peacefully resting in God's vineyard where there is no pain or struggle.
I LOVE YOU DAD!
I MISS YOU DAD!!
GOOD NIGHT DAD!!!

Otunba Sesan Falade from memory to Treasure

No doubt, the death of Otunba Sesan Falade is a personal loss to me and my family members. What a fine gentleman, who would not like to hurt even a fly. He was always ready to take care of your needs beyond personal comfort. In every situation, he would welcome you with his cheerful smiles.
He’s memories would linger on and on since he had passed from memory to Treasure.

Fondly remembered by Adelusi’s, Ado-Ekiti.

Igi daa! Erin nla lo laga!
Ajanaku subu ko le dide
O darinako! O doju ala,
Kato reni rere to lo!

An uncle in a million
You were second to none

You were so nice, considerate and loving
You were a rallying point.
You bore no grudge against anybody

You impacted my life positively and the lives of everyone that ever came across you
You were a source of inspiration
You showed genuine love
You always went out of your way to please others
Unfortunately death did not allow you to live long enough to reap the fruits of your labour.

During the period of your health challenge
We prayed and kept hope alive,
but you never survived it
We have since submitted to the will of God
because God knows better
We loved you but God loved you most
I will surely miss your wise counsels,
my family and I will forever miss you

Continue to rest in perfect peace
Adieu. MY GREAT UNCLE

Fondly remembered by Bola & Taiwo Ade-Ojo

TO A GREAT ICON, MY UNCLE – A TRIBUTE
I am most terribly saddened on the news of your exit from this earthly sojourn. Uncle, your death came too soon and shocked me and my wife to the marrow just as we were hoping with prayers that you will soon overcome your health challenge.
You were a pillar and a stabilizing substance, a bridge that connected the old and the young ones in the entire family. My Uncle like no other one is gone. One of the finest human specimens that ever lived is gone. A man of tremendous sacrifice who cared relentlessly for the well being of his people is gone.
Uncle, your cherubic and smiling face is gone, your encouraging voice in the face of challenges, your penetrating words of advice, your words of wisdom that you constantly fed us with, all shall be missed for ever. Haba! My great Uncle, your passage was indeed painful, demoralizing and disheartening but we are consoled that your soul will find a peaceful and an everlasting rest with your creator. Amen!
Erin wo! Agun t’áșọ lo, Ọkunrin lo.

The Otuba of Temidire Ekiti, Otunba Olusesan Ebenezer Falade popularly known as UNCLE in the Falade family circle. Sun re o.

We give glory to God for a life well spent, it is not in the number but the impact upon the lives of people around.

I was barely 15 years old when you told me of your promise to your mum and my grand mother Yeye Ewi, Chief Comfort Tinuola Falade of blessed memory, that you would bé a source of Joy to her and the family, you have kept your promise, at your own expense you serve both your seniors, comtemporaries and your juniors, you were a rallying point for both the young and the old, you made sacrifices which ordinary mortals would have turned down, you stayed the course with all through the thick and the thing, you were a pillar that many rested on, a counsellor that many believed in. A brother that many people did not have.

I recall my elementary days when I first in my class, you took me to Kingsway stores in Ibadan to shower me with gifts to underscore how important you valued educational excellence, I remember, when it was time to go to high school, how you coined the names of excellent schools to guide our choices of secondary school, we had to memorize it. "Kings College, Lagos. Igbobi college Lagos, Governement college Ibadan, Loyola College Ibadan, Olivet heights Oyo, Christ School, Ado Ekiti" etc. These were the schools, we applied for and passed the exams one by one, when there was a stalemate between my choice of FGC Kano vs Government College Ibadan (GCI), you broker the peace meeting enabling me to head to Kano. You were a pillar during my wedding, 22 years ago, at my father in law's burial, you were there standing tall. How many more of such interventions can one recall, they are too many.

Everyone felt your impact, you were a reknown family spokesman. You were something to everybody, to your friends, to your colleagues and acquaintances, to the immediate and extended family members, all felt your impact in and out of seasons.

Although you did not stay long enough to enjoy the harvest directly, my strong believe is that the harvest will not ellude the family, for God is the rewarder with benefits transfering from generations to generations.

We are grateful to your generation for their pioneering effort, we rode on you peoples' back for all the glory we celebrate through God today, our duty is to build on the legacy you have laid, the foundation is strong and will carry the structure beyond the skies.

We miss you, Temidire misses you. However, the bible says mark the righteous man, his end shall bé peace, we appreciate the peace and tranquility you left behind.

Rest in the Bossom of the Lord, where we shall meet to part no more.

Adieu My Uncle $ Otunba Falade, May your soul rest in perfect peace.

Your Aburo,
Prince Olumuyiwa Falade
(aka -iiwa ni)

Uncle as we fondly call you, i write this with mixed feelings: sad at your loss but the thought of you bring warm memories. You were caring, loving, and very forthright . One is never left in doubt where you stood on any matter. Always understanding, always smiling, always by your wife's (my Aunty) side, always family oriented. Now, you are with Him who redeemed you by His blood, yeah! You were a born again child of God, which is our greatest consolation. Sleep on beloved Uncle!

Dad Falade, you are one in a million father, brother and a mentor to all who know you. What i cherish most in your life time is that you know the Lord your God whom i believe you are sleeping in His bosom right now.  Sincerely, i miss you so much remebering your words of encouragement to me personally. May your soul rest in peace. E sun re o,

Dad, u have fought a gud fight n have kept the faith..,, A Crown of righteousness awaits u @ THE GREAT BEYOND.
Okun o Awe.... Sun re o!!!!
We luv you but the great I AM desired u more... Rest on sir in d PALACE OF THE KINGS

Uncle S, The news of your call to glory was a shock to me, Felicia and the children, especially Okiki and Iyin, who had the privilege of staying in your house when they visited Nigeria for the first time in 2007. As it was my custom, I rang Mummy on New year's day to exchange greetings only to be told that you'd gone too soon. It was such a great opportunity to have met and spent time with you. You were a genuine Christian: resplendent with child like purity, humility, love, care and interest in the well being of others. Your conversations were replete with prayers. I recall the family prayer time I witnessed when we stayed in your villa; we sang loads of hymns which I'm sure you have joined the Hosts of heaven in giving to our Master. You came. You fought the good fight. You finished the race. You have kept the faith,. and now you have laid hold on eternal life where unto thou art also called. Rest in the warm bosom of our Lord...till we meet to part no more. You were a unique gem. Adieu Uncle. With kindest regards from the Coo Clan. Dublin, Ireland

"Daddy, I'm still in shock over your death. It's hard to believe you are gone. I was talking about you to a friend on my birthday not knowing you were ascending unto glory that very moment. I looked forward to bringing your grand daughter to visit you little did I know you will leave so soon, God had better plans for you. You must have loved me so much when you chose to join your creator on my birthday and baby's dedication. Your grandchildren can't stop asking about you and wondering where you traveled to without your mobile phones, truly you are in Jesus' house. Thank you for your prayers, words of encouragement and for taking good care of Mum. We take solace in God to meet again on the day of resurrection where we will meet to part no more. Adieu Daddy, sleep on in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ whom you loved and served till the end.

A kind, gentle soul has gone to rest.
Grant repose, O Lord, to the soul of the departed faithful.
And comfort to his darling wife - dear cousin Bimbola -, the children and the family at large.
