Tributes
Leave a TributeAs i gradually began to accept it as months went by, i realised you came to say goodbye to me the morning yóu transitioned exactly the same time the dogs were barking. Oh how i miss you so much, how i wish i could wind back the hands of time to do some things with you, to tell you how much i love you. I decided the best way to accept your death is to tell myself you went on a journey and we would hook up later. I miss you so much my darling big sis and i love you. I have decided to stop asking GOD why? Because he knows our beginning from the end and he loves you. I know you are in heaven smiling down at me and singing with that beautiful voice of yours in heavens choir. Continue to rest in perfect peace till we meet again big sis.......you remain every green in my heart and may the souls of our dearly departed RIP AMEN
I miss you so much and wish you didn't have to go because a lot changed after you left. But I know God knows better and let it be this way. Hows heaven? How're you dad and mum doing? I miss you all today and always, keep on praying for me like you always have done big sis. Continue to RIP till we meet to part no more on that day AMENNNNN ❤❤❤❤
Thank God for Jesus in your life, for photography, for Dipo and definitely for Esther. You made the sacrifice for her and i know God would honour you by her success in the future. I pray to meet her sometime in the future.
I'm sorry I wasn't very visible in your last minutes. Thank God for your mum and her faith and strength. Thank God you are in a better place. Do say hello to my mum for me
Love
Dr Sarah (I cld never stop u from calling me that)
Your disposition then was that of a caring and doting mother not a older sibling. You were too mature for your age. You were a humble and reserved person.
I remember a day I walked home with you and Rita and you were quiet throughout the journey while Rita and I were chatting away, all you did was smile and gave approving nods.
That was my first time of coming close to you and I formed an impression about you instantly.
The news of your death brought tears to my eyes and the memories of the quiet, loving angel I knew started flooding back. The first question I asked was WHY IS IT THAT GOOD PEOPLE DO NOT LAST LONG. The answer I got has been my consolation ANGELS ARE BETTER OFF IN HEAVEN. Continue to rest ANGEL. We miss you but God loves you more than we do and he decided to keep you with him.
REST IN PERFECT PEACE ANGEL ELOHOR.
begin? Writing this tribute is the most difficult thing I have ever had to do. Even on this final deadline day I am asking God for
the strength.
My sister Lolo, you were an angel on earth. A God send. A virtuous woman. A saint. An Angel on Earth.
From childhood you have always been very loving, caring, protective and humble. You always put God first, others next and yourself last. You kept certain things to yourself because you didn't want others to worry and you always looked out for me, right up until you went home to God. You
were very loving and protective to your family, friends, loved ones and everyone you encountered. Always concerned about your siblings, always wanted the best for us, always praying for us and ensuring that we were on the right path with God. I remember when dad went astray and you would both have discussions about the word of God...I smile now because he gave his life to Christ before he passed away and you saw him in heaven a few days before you left us.
You lived a life that exemplified Christ. You loved. You forgave and you died without any grudge in your heart.
I came here to be a part of your healing process, to encourage and inspire you and Mum like Jeff and I had been doing on the phone....but I didn’t know I was coming
to say goodbye to you. Looking back now, I know that you knew. Yes you did - because the medical report you refused to send to me last year after I found out and wanted to visit...you instantly verbally authorized your doctors to send to me - even when you knew I was going to defer my college admission just to visit you. I rejected that report. I thank God for expediting the visa
procedure inspite of all obstacles and giving me the opportunity to see you again.
I will forever cherish the last six days I spent with you; feeding you, holding your hand as you would squeeze mine so tight like you never wanted to let go! Hugging you, kissing you on the forehead, telling you I
love you, carrying Esther up to lay her hand on your head and say a prayer for you, tell you she loves you and hug you every morning, mum and i worshipping, praying and studying the word of God with you, when you called your husband "Dipo Baba o" two days before you passed on and held on to his hand and looked into his eyes so lovingly and you smiled, all the chit chat and sisterly gossip we shared, everything you told me in confidence. How I would just say "whatever" when you bullied me lovingly and you would respond "duh", and we would both laugh. Thanks for believing in me and standing up for me, vouching for me till the end.
I will never forget all the memories you shared and all the requests you made.
Apart from the vision God gave me in a dream, you showed me the signs from the day I arrived. It was very obvious that you were singing "hallelujah" with the angels in heaven. You told me on day two that my sister Elohor was dead. We refused to believe; that's why we were always rejecting it. But looking back now, I know that God took you away from all the pain and heartache of this world and I am comforted
because I know that you are in heaven singing hallelujah with the Angels.
The day before you passed, Esther and I danced and sang praises to God by your bed while you smiled happily and sang
along; then suddenly the CD player stopped working and refused to work again. I remember your excitement when I
asked if you remembered Kirk Franklin's song "My life is in your hands". You replied "Of course" I played it via my iPhone and we all sang and prayed along with Mum. We also
worshipped with Donnie McClurkin's "That's what I believe" and "Great is your Mercy" and went back to Kirk Franklin's again. You sang along. You couldn't stop
saying hallelujah....and Amen. You knew. That night you slept peacefully and the next morning you were gone. I refused to believe...I stayed by your side, held your hand and prayed, I kept on telling you to ask God to let you come back to compete his work on earth - testify in the assembly
of his people for the salvation of souls through your healing and also remind him about Esther. I kissed your head
and lay beside you until they came to take you away. We prayed for you and I escorted you to the car. That's when reality struck. It's still very surreal.
I hurt and cry only because I will miss you but I am happy because you are in heaven and I know I will see you there one day. Your mission on earth is complete and that's why God allowed this.
Your legacy of peace, love, forgiveness and deep rooted Spirituality will live on in me and I pray it will also live on in anyone who knows you and anyone who reads this tribute.
I thank God for blessing you with wonderful family and friends globally, whom love you so much. These doors never closed since the day I walked in and even in your death you are a super star. Everyone who has come to visit or called has something good and positive to say about you. You are a shining light, you are a super star.
I love and miss you, my “Lolo the Principal”.
Thank you for waiting for me.
Your life is in God's hands now and I know know you are watching over us now. Please continue interceding on our behalf.
See you in heaven someday.
I miss you dearly and i love you with all my heart.
Your Dear Sister,
Arientarhe Biuwovwi-Nash.

Elohor the quiet; Elohor my friend
Elohor!!!!
Our friendship dated back to UI. From Queens Hall. I.remember meeting your sisters and being surprised. You so quiet, they so bubbly.
....your decision to stay in the BQ. Kai! U get strong head sha.
Your non-assuming ways. Kai! U hardly ever make a request. For you to voice out, it must have gotten really bad. You managed shaaaaa. Even after the decade of friendship, you still won't come out freely. You never wanted to inconvenience anyone. Ever so courteous.
From your days at Glory Tabernacle to City of David.
The photography bit was a nice twist. I didn't see it coming. Really really nice.
Dipo, marriage... I missed out on most of that fun.
The pregnancy, Wow!!!! Praise the Lord!!!. The Dilemma and your firm decision.
You had a way of cutting me off when I came with my medical jargons or strong opinions that you didn't want to hear and then finding me where u dropped me off. That was your style and I accepted it. I guess that is why I assumed your silence was 'as usual'. I didn't realise God had taken my friend to be with Him.
Back to the nice stuff - spending nights in my house; Esther's birth and first year. I followed up very closely and had many of her pictures. Thank.God for Rita who posted the video on the Facebook page.
One can't describe Elohor easily. You were all encompassing. Your love for God; your faith was your foundation. No one dare comes near you talking negativity. You won't tolerate it. I'm sure your Drs and caregivers can write an epistle about it.
I had wished I could reach out to Dipo before now cos I know like I told you dt it cld not have been easy for him. I.trust God to heal him completely. Oh!!! I continually thank God for him in your life. A pillar of strength for you. And your mom's coming was just what you needed. I guess everybody always needs their mother. Hahaha. Even when we don't want to accept it. Her coming calmed you and made you feel more at rest.
I missed out on your last moments and I have no one to blame but myself. Many times I wished I had a visa so I cld come meet you esp when you were not replying my messages.
Ah Elohor, fine I knew this moment would come and tried in my little way to prepare you but I'm not very sure I was prepared. I love you girl. There is so much one can't write and esp on a public domain but thank God for your life. For the things you taught me esp about motherhood, for your church family who kept Esther some of those times you were in and out of the hospital. For Rita, through whom I got to know and who provided a media for us to keep your memories alive.
Just last month, my sister Egbe was asking for your phone number. She hadn't heard from you and you were in her heart. What I didn't know was that your earthly phone number was no longer relevant. I haven't been able to get myself to tell her, my other siblings and parents that you have gone home. Maybe I would after this.
How is Heaven like? I'm sure you've fit in so easily there, singing and praising God. Thank you Rita again for this medium. I don't know what else to say. Thank you Rita.
