Our deepest sympathy for your lose we are here when ever you need anything i am saddened to hear about your lose remembering all the fun memories and wonderful time we spent together as friends fill with Joy wishing you courage strength and love to help you through this lose . Ma wogu will stay ageless in the memories of those who love her . Please accept my deepest condolences i am thinking of you and your family during this difficult time

To the mother of my dearest friend, Menah

You have left this earth with so many indelible marks, one the greatest of which is your son - Menah. Thank you for raising such a strong king and a God-fearing beacon of hope. Thank you for showing him resilience and inspiring him to be the fiery king that he is.

We know that you are resting in paradise and pray that the seeds you’ve sown here on earth shall continue to blossom ceaselessly in greater dimensions. We also pray that your many sacrifices will do more than make you proud, they’ll reflect the glory of God’s love.

Rest on Queen for there will be no night for you. Only endless days of joy and rejoicing in the arms of your maker.

All the love,
Adeoluwa Atayero ❤️

Uhmmmm...it is always very painful to hear the earthly loss of someone greatly admired and loved, however, i take solace in the fact that you are resting in a better place, the blossom of the Lord.
Your good works speak volume and the legacy you have left behind is a reminder and remeberance for us all as we keep doing good. Sleep on... we cannot question God on this. May God uphold your family, and everyone of us at AWLAN that you left behind.

Life well lived. I joined the legion of angel's in heaven to sing praise be thy holy name Almighty God for your wonderful creation of Barr. Florence. She was extra humble down to earth and endowed with compassion for humanity. May her soul rest in peace , Amen.

I had not been able to bring myself to write anything for a long time since i first got the news. I never met Mrs Wogu in person even though I got to speak to her over the phone, she impacted my life indirectly through her daughters who have remained good friends going on 10 years. Ijeoma spoke so highly of her mum, her strength was amazing, her zeal, her drive through life, the principles she held on to, her faith, she exuded a wisdom and gentleness which radiated through her children and oh on more than one occassion I remember having a conversation with Ijey about a personal situation and asking her how mum would have handled a similar thing. I remember the soothing stern voice of Mrs Wogu on the other end of the phone. She stood for truth and really impacted alot in her children which indirectly impacted me. I believe she still lives on in the lives of all those she impacted directly and indirectly, and my peace is she really lives on in the bossom of the Lord. Rest well Barr Mrs Wogu!

Dear mother,
I don’t even know where to start. This comes as a shock to me and I’m so heartbroken hearing this. You might have never met me, but I guarantee that you changed my life. Your (biological) son, Oghogome, is one of the most important and impactful people to have ever come into my life. His impact in my life cannot be overstated and you made that possible. I really wish I got to meet you. You’ve impacted my life a great deal, you’ve touched a generation and I promise you, I would never forget you. You’re forever in my heart and i derive peace knowing that you’re in a better place and you’ve received eternal peace. Rest In Peace mama, I would forever love you ❤️

To my dearest mentee.It is the greatest honour of my life to have been your mentor .It is doubly painful to write anything about you in the past . When the lovely Ijeoma called to give me the awful news of your passing I was in shock. Why? Because her call immediately showed that life was indeed brief .The week before your demise you had sent a What's app message to say you wanted to discuss something important with me at my convenience ,so I should give you a time. I did. But you did not call. You sent a message to apologize and promised to call again . But still you did not call .And then IJ called!!! Just Imagine !!! .Everything she asked me to do , I just did mechanically , thinking that the pain would go .
When the life of a loved one comes to an end ,only the grace of God sustains us through the eternal separation .
It has been a great honour to have known you , to have loved you , to have pointed you in the directions that I am familiar with . You were happy to follow my suggestions , my leadings ,my ideas .It was indeed the greatest honour .I miss you more than words can express.
God's love for you is eternal and surpasses all others .Rest in perfect peace my beloved mentee.

To an Icon,

Although I missed the chance of getting to meet you in person, I felt I did every single time I spoke with Mena. Good-mannered, God fearing and kind hearted. Attributes I know he modeled after you. I know I missed the chance of meeting you in person but you've shared beautiful pieces of yourself to everyone. I'm honoured to have met you through your Children, thank you for living and being the legacy of an awesome woman, mother, lawyer and role model. Mena will always know you're watching out for him every day from the heavens. Rest in perfect peace Ma.

Dear Mrs Uchendu-Wogu,

I was privileged to meet you once when you came to drop Menah off in school. Although the interaction was highly brief, I could—in a matter of seconds— sense the warmth, care and love you embody. Same qualities Menah also talked about whenever he mentioned you in our discussions.
Thank you for raising such amazing kids. Although you may be gone but I’m certain the values you’ve instilled in your children will serve as a remembrance to all who knew you. Rest in Power Ma. You are loved. God bless you.

It's always hard to bring yourself to talk about when people die. Most times, we try to forget...feeling like it will make the pain go away. I know I didn't have a lot of conversations or physical meetings with you, but the few times we met and had conversations, you always made me feel at home - they say home is where you feel safest. May your lovely soul rest in peace ❤❤

It's hard to come into terms that we will never hear from auntie Florence again, truly a beautiful flower has been plucked from the flower bed to be a sweet smelling savor in the presence of our maker. May her soul rest peacefully in our Lord's bossom till we meet to part no more.

A gracious life well lived affected all around you, and this is witnessed by all. You will always be in our hearts. Rest in the bossom of our Lord.

A Tribute to a woman, who was the strength of life, the rock of her family, the gentle heartbeat to her children, the joy to her husband, the inspiration at her work, the support and love of her friends, The mystique in society, the leader of love and A child of God.
And as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father so shall she walk in the newness of life.

R I P Ma.

The life you lived here on earth and the impact you made is a constant reminder that even though you are gone for now, you are with the Lord and that is our greatest consolation. We meet in Heaven!

I am moved to tears, I believe that God will bless and reward a kind and well-lived selfless life with a special place with him in heaven. Her reward is great in heaven. May her soul rest in God's perfect peace. Amen.

Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.”
I may not know you but I know of your legacy.... That's all that matters

Rest in peace Madam

I still cannot believe you are gone. The news came to me as a mirage .I will find solace in the fact that though I love you so much as a friend, neighbor,co parent at AGHS. ,and above all as a sister in the Lord,but God whom you served earnestly while on Earth loves you more.
I pray that God will give all of us especially your family, husband and your lovely children the fortutude to bear the loss . May the Lord comfort all of us you left behind.
Rest on a strong woman of God till we meet to part no more.

It's been difficult to come to terms with this even when I never met you Ma. Grateful to have met your brilliant kids Menah and IJ.
Only a great woman could have raised them.
Farewell Aunty Florence, Rest in Heaven.

She was a great and Loving Mother. A supportive friend. When my Mum wasn't available to pick/take I and my sister up from/to school, Mrs Wogu was ever ready to do the needful. Those big smiles she wore when my family pays the wogu's a visit made me feel at home.

The news of her demise is still a hard pill for me to swallow. Who am I to question God? But I rather choose to believe that she is in a happy place where there is no pain nor sorrow, worry nor fear but she is absolutely peaceful and smiling down at us.

Adieu Aunt!

I know you fulfilled purpose!

"vita mutatur, non tollitur" life is not taken, it is changed. I once saw this at a grave and it's been deeply embedded in my mind ever since....just as deep as my friendship with your lovely daughter who I fondly call Ijeylee. She's always had this infectious persona and believed in all her friends dreams as fiercely as if they were her own. This and many more things, she's always said she learnt from you. I can go on and on about the fine family you raised,and about how I wish I eventually met the charming Mommy Wogu who was my friend's model, hero and rock but I'd rather thank you. So, thank You for inspiring her and inadvertently everyone around her to be better and do better. Thank You for being the source of her best memories and one of the most important things in her life. I take solace in the fact that you are not lost, this is not the end and we would reunite forever in Heaven. Rest in peace forever Ma.

Barrister Ifeoma Wogu was a neighbor I enjoyed being with. She was never too busy to receive me and there was never a dull moment with her... so full of life and love which she infused into her amazing children. I thank God she was saved and now resting in bosom of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Only Jehovah can answer all our questions.
Sun ree o!

Aunty Florence... As a growing children in our royal family, my Grand Uncle Papa Mgbuhegbu and mummy were always a delight, my mum takes us to specially greet them when we come home for the Christmas or Yam festivals as it was customary for us to perform the traditional 'i pu Ama'. My Uncle Uchendu was the only one not in the mix, so I grew up not knowing him in person until my Uncle the King passed on and the entire family bonded in August 2019. My uncle was amazed to meet me, we struck, he told me amazing things last Christmas about Aunty Florence and my cousins. He wouldnt complete any conversation without special mention to his pride Aunty Florence. My Sister is a Lawyer and when uncle heard of her aspirations he already assigned aunty Flo mentionship duties. We looked forward to bonding within the year in Abuja as we wanted to visit. Uncle also promised our cousins would come home and we could host a grand reunion which is becoming imperative as the next generation are already in the market place and entirely unaware of ourselves. Great plans... Then I saw the post making its way through the DPs and status of many... Aunty Flo had gone to be with the Lord.

Aunty Flo, I didn't meet you but I know you more than you can imagine. I see the hard work, the resilience, your passion for God and the disciple, all you represent in Mena and Ijay whom I have connected with, I just want to say thank you, for being another amazing wify and daughter of our great family. You were my mum's namesake, you raise the best kids and make the best wife material. For the happiness and fillment you brought into my Uncle's life, eternity isn't enough to repay you, these ones will forever pride in your person. Your absence with us today is a reminder that you are present with God hence we celebrate your time here, a life well lived and not left to chance, legacies built most especially in human capital and unwavering faith in God. Adieu Aunty Flo and forever in our hearts I love you

Mrs Wogu was always a joy to be around, very intellectually stimulating, with a contagious laughter and a witty sense of humor.
When our families visited, her enthusiastic talk of politics was an inspiration for me to desire a better Nigeria.
By virtue of her evident faith in God, I trust Mrs Wogu lives on and she reigns with Christ in glory✨

It's so painful to accept... But we are mere human and cannot question the Almighty God. You lived a beautiful life, your ever radiant smile and laughter........ we will always love you and hold all the fond memories in our heart.
Sleep on Sister till we meet at Jesus feet.

It is HARD to accept the death of a loved one. We all wish we had the power to make death go away from the face of the earth forever and never return. We wish to live on earth without losing anyone dear to us. But sadly, death is inevitable.
I will miss your face and your funny joke aunty.
God knows best, he took you to a better place where there’s no pain but forever happiness. I do hope and pray that you will forever be happy at your new home.
Rest In Peace sweet aunty.

This is a painful loss for each and everyone of us. But I am consoled that you died in Christ. Thank you for all your love and care towards me. I remember the short time that we spent during my AGGS days and you were nothing but a blessing. I pray that God will protect,keep, bless and console the family that you left behind. Continue to rest in peace ma.

Tribute to my second Mother, Barr. Mrs. Ifeoma Wogu.

When I received the news of your demise from this sinful world in August 31, 2020, my reaction was one that I would not like to remember. All I keep asking death is, why? Why has he decided to torment me the second time.
Mummy as I fondly called you, thank you for all you did for me. When I needed legal counsel, you were there, when all I needed was motherly love, you called me your son. You were many women in one. I lack the words to express my pain, but then, I remember that if you are here you would tell me to be strong.
Thank you for being an instrument of honour in God's hands. Your legacy will live on. Rest in peace Ma. Until we meet in glory.

Digwo Aunty, you always had the kindest advice and most insightful stories. You have touched my life. You have raised beautiful, brilliant and kind children. Your substance will live forever, and I am eternally grateful to you. I know that you left as you lived, that you gave love and were surrounded by love.

To my lovely Uncle and cousins:

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back and in your sails
May the Sun shine warm upon your face and give you comfort.

To my delightful birthday mate:

May the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
I will always be grateful to you. You lived well and I love you, Aunty.

Florence's daughter Ijeoma and my daughter Ify, have been good friends for years, that their friendship drew us close to her family. Her well brought up daughter Ijay also became one of my daughters. She had always told amazing stories of a great mother she had. Distance being a barrier, did not afford us the opportunity to meet prior to her demise, but from stories shared by Ijay and my daughter, about this great woman of substance I had known her in absentia that when i heard the news of her death, I had this feeling of an overwhelming sadness, until I remembered that our times are in God's hands and we cannot question him. Wogu family, i join with you to mourn this painful exit of Florence. My condolences to your entire family and I pray for her peaceful rest in God's bosom. May her legacy live on. Adieu Florence!

Florence Wogu:
There is a saying that who is your family? and the answer is blood.

A family is not only about Blood
But is person , Florence was always willing to hold your hand when you need it most.
She was my family.

*Her attributes when she was alife*
•God used Florence to play some very important vital roll in humanity I am one of the benefactors, she can't be forgotten in a hurry.
• She was a builder
•She was encourager
•She doesn't belief in impossiblity
•Right from my childhoods days.
Want to appreciate God for using her to reach most part of God's programme for my life.
However she left too soon to human thinking.
But God Thy knowth it all
Thank you.

The demise of Barrister Mrs Flo Wogu has dug a deep hole in our hearts which we will bear for a long time to come.We were not privy to her recent medical challenges until a neighbour announced her death. The resultant shock dealt us a severe blow for several days before we came to terms with the obvious reality of her passage.
Our paths crossed in the early 90s when we both worshipped at Our Saviors Anglican Church,Egbe in the Diocese of Lagos West. Flo's husband Architect Uche to the glory of God designed the monumental church edifice, pro bono which was dedicated some two years ago.
Our friendship blossomed and we became close family friends such that we adopted Flo as our second wife[iyawo] and we became God parents to Faith,her niece and her three lovely children, Amarachi, Akachi and Nnochiri. We exchanged regular monthly visits where we cooked meals and ate as a large family until they relocated to Abuja.
Our ancestors often say that dying souls make reparations before they die. No wonder Flo called us during the pandemic to say that she owed us some money and she paid up. That was her last reparation and contact.
Flo, our lovely iyawo was a great lover of her husband, children, family, friends and the church. She loved fashion and good life. She loved legal arguments. She was pleasant, lucid, warm and a jolly good fellow with a disarming laughter. We wish our lovely iyawo eternal rest in the bosom of the Lord. For Uche and the children, may God console you.
Sleep on Darling Flo
Adieu

Chief and Chief Mrs Abiodun Jolaoso

It is hard to come to terms with the fact that we will never hear from you again. Sweet memories fill me anytime I remember the advice you found pleasure in sharing with us and will forever be cherished. Admittedly, we have lost a precious jewel, if death was stoppable, we would have stopped it from coming your way. Hmmm....Mummy, you have fought a good fight, won the race and kept the faith. May God grant you eternal rest...

Reen-oo.... you always called me; in a singsong way.

After my dad shared the news of your passing, I kept hearing your voice in my head for days. Frankly I was in shock the first week but I guess it’s finally dawning on me that this is real.

I remember my first engagement to my husband. Truth is you were the first person in the family that I told. Even before my parents. I walked into your house in Isolo smiling and as soon as I told you, you started screaming and dancing. I can never forget that scene. I started laughing because you seemed a lot more happy than I did but that has always been you aunty. You were always happy for our successes and you never failed to let us know.

I hear you’re in a better place. I truly do not understand that but I hope you look down and remain proud of the way we all turn out.

I love you aunty. Thank you for being you. Sun re o....❤️

I was born in America and as I grew up I always heard about Aunty Florence and her beautiful family. I didn’t know her well because I was a child at the time. My first recollection of meeting her was in 2015 when I was much older. When I came back to Nigeria in 2018 with my family, she was very generous and held out open arms for me and welcomed me into her home. She took my sister, my mother and me to the tailor to give us some new clothes and she also took us to the photography studio to take pictures of us. She gave me a very loving, confident presence and I felt as if I was with royalty. While I was staying with her we also went to visit Aunty Josephine in her village and I remember Aunty Florence being very funny that day while we were on the drive there. She loved to tell stories about her past and about her children chichi, Oghoghome and Ij. I found her very funny, passionate, loving and a great story teller. She loved to go into detail about what she did in her past, me and my older sister Olivia would be up late listening to the stories between my mom and Aunty Florence. When I came back to Canada, a year later, I had the opportunity to have my cousin Ij stay with my family. I got to know Aunty Florence even more because Ij would talk to her parents on the phone. Every time I talked to Aunty Florence, she would always call me ‘young Kome’ because I resembled my mother so much when she was a child. That was the last thing she said to me when I talked to her this summer with chichi. I would like to say that Aunty Florence was a Loving, generous, exciting woman, I wish I got to learn more about her and talk to her more often. The last time I saw her I was thirteen, I wish I could’ve met her one more time before she passed away. She was a light that always shined and was such a positive person who was goal oriented and she is in a better place now. I pray for her family and keep them in my prayers, she has raised very strong passionate children, that I am lucky to know and grow up with. She is in a better place now and I am honoured to have known such an amazing woman.

THE EXIT OF AN ANGEL

She was a woman who never rested till she did a good deed every day. Her kind and sweet memories will linger and always stay with us.

Even though we know that you have gone to a better world, we pray that you may get peace, love and greatness there. May other angels watch over you mummy.

Humphrey Ayere... ADC

As I compose this Tribute to you, I still find it difficult putting words together to Express how much you impacted my life positively since the day I met you; Ever since I heard of your demise, I’ve been lost of words. I remember those moments you’ll call me to your office for work Related Issues, upon arrival, you’ll start sharing memories of your life experience and things you were working on; which is always an Interesting moment shared! Just like it was Tales by moon light, I’ll just be Silent listening to those words of wisdom and life experience coming out from your mouth! I even had to cancel my appointments for that day just to Listen to you! Sometimes, we’d forget time has gone! You’ll still insist we go home together to have dinner; Me that is always Shy, I’ll still carry my shyness to have dinner with you and the family! Every moment spent with you, is Something that brings JOY and PEACE to my HEART. You’re love itself since the first day I met you. It’s so sad that it was a short period I got to know you; but, the moments spent with you, is something that can never be ERASED from My heart! these are Moments that is DEAR to my GROWTH AND WELL BEING. You were like a Mother to me Since Day 1. A good listener, with Stupendous Love for people around you! Your words of Wisdom is something that I can not comprehend, because, you’re Just so Amazing in all Corners! I could go on and on to EULOGIZE YOU.”

Words alone, cannot quantify my immense ADMIRATION and LOVE towards YOU! FOREVER HOLD YOU DEAR TO MY HEART!

“I LOVE YOU MUMMY “❤️ 

Anyone that raised Ij must've been a great woman.
God bless you for your contributions to earth.
The angels welcome a saint home

Farewell my dear Florence 
You are gone way too soon
Ever since I heard of your passing
I have been lost for words
People say God knows best
I sometimes question why the good ones go first
I wish you had more time on this earth
To see your children achieve their life goals
To play and enjoy your grandchildren
But I will leave it all to God.
I am here to celebrate your life
And the measure of its worth
And every single life you touched
And the women’s issues you fought for
And the law profession who loved so much
While you were on this earth.
I wish to thank you for your friendship
And all the memories we hold dear.
It's been a privilege to have known you.
The 1974 group were family, not just friends,
And we will carry you in spirit
Until we meet up once again.

Forever your friend
Queen Ogbomo (Nee Onoriobe)

I feel like I've met and known you for the longest time, through IJ. Never have I heard a daughter speak so highly of her mother. I am certain you live on in your children through the experiences you shared, the lessons you taught, and the life you lived. Even my life has been positively impacted by you. May God grant you a perfect rest and grant the family peace. Amen

It takes a heavy heart to be writing this about a woman who was more than an aunt to me, She was a mother; not just to me but to everyone she came across always spreading joy and unfiltered love towards her children and nieces and nephews. You watched me grow up as a child and act grown as a teenager but no matter how much I grew you always saw me as your son. Heaven gained more than an Angel and there is no doubt in my mind that you are watching over us right now. I could honestly go on about the kindness of your person but I'm afraid I might need a whole new website just cause this won't be enough to write the chapter of your life I took part in; I remember our last conversation was you correcting me to always address you as the mummy. This is not goodbye forever because I know we would meet again. Love you, Mum

I never knew you in person but JJ always talked about the manner of support she's got in you as her confidant and side buddy and the many things you've accomplished with love from your hubby as well. I had hope to see you my friend's bedrock in person someday. But I'm happy to have known you nonetheless through your many gifts in your children and I'm sure you're resting in a better place filled with the smile and laughter having lived well. God bless your soul ma.
May God comfort your family at this time. Amen️️

Mummy Will always be a Pillar of Support I can never forget in my Life.
I can never forget your support in my life ma.
I will always cherish your memories ma.
I know you're resting now ma.
Rest in Peace Mummy Wogu.

I still can’t believe I’m actually typing this it still does not feel real. My fondest memories growing up involved the many times I came to play with Chichi, IJ and Ghoghome in the house in Okota and you would always take such good care of all of us. I still remember my first day of JS1 when you took me to Loyola with the rest of the family. It still feels like yesterday and now you’ve gone on to be in a better place. You were and always will be such a loving and caring aunt and I am happy you touched my life the way only your could. I know you’re still here with us, looking down and making sure we are safe. Thank you and rest easy till we meet again.

May Aunt Florence Rest in Power and Dance with the Angels as she has become another Angel Watching over us. 

Partings come and hearts are broken, loved ones go with words unspoken.

Our consolation is that, our sister Florence Wogu fondly called *Aunty Lawyer* has gone to a better place. I met her in GEM (Grace Evangel Mission)and through her children IJ and Chichi who were one of our best dancers in the children’s department drew us closer. The news of her sudden illness came on Sunday and with all the saints, we engaged in serious intercession prayers interceding for her recovery, not knowing she has already passed on. It was so sad and shocking but we can’t question the Almighty. It is the Good Lord alone who knows why He has called her at such a time. We pray that, the Almighty God will fill the vacuum created in our hearts.
*Rest On, Aunty Lawyer.

Mummy (was what i called her) such a loving woman and family....i was privileged to have stayed with for a year during my service year 2015-2016...she was literally my mom and aunty at the same time. very free spirited and energetic that you could tell her anything and you would get an advise...your legacy will forever live on..that i am sure of. Till we meet again.

Mama! The way your children loved and always spoke about you is a testament to the kind of amazing woman you were.
You were such a force, so beautiful, so kind, so warm. Thank you for leaving pieces of yourself here on earth.
Rest well.

Tribute to a dear sister in Christ and a friend that's thicker than a blood sister.      Mama Chi, l can't believe that am writing a tribute to you. We spoke on phone from the beginning of August making arrangements on how you were coming to Lagos to move your things to village. On the 30 of August l sent you end of the month prayers telling you that l will not shed tears on your behalf only to receive a message the following day that you have gone to be with the Lord. The shock was too much for me o but who can query the Almighty? God knows the best for you. I have known you for many years now and it has been fun all the way. You were a woman of great virtues, your love for the things of God endeared you to me. You shared what you have to people around you just like Dorcas in the Bible. I will greatly missed you Mama Chi, your words of encouragement, your hospitality and all the fun. I am forced to say good night until that resurrection morning when we shall see face to face at the feet of our Lord Jesus where there shall be no sickness, no pains and there shall be no more death. Rest in peace Barrister Mrs. Wogu.   From Sis. Kate Duru.
