May God grant us all the fortitude to bear this. Please accept my heartfelt condolences Professor Udegbe and family.
The news of your husband's transition to Eternal Glory came to me as a shock. I cannot ask God why, because He knows the end from the beginning, and I believe God have need of him which is why He called him home this early. Be rest assured that he is going home to rest with God his creator. I pray that God Almighty console and provide for you, your children and the entire family that he left behind. May his soul rest in perfect peace, Amen.

The news of your transition came to me as a surprise. It nevertheless reminds me why it is important to be close to God.
My consolation at this moment is that you were close to God whom you served diligently as a devout Catholic. I will not forget the cooperation you gave me while serving as a member of our harvest planning committee at the Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Catholic Chapel, University of Ibadan for two consecutive years.
I cherish your love and compassion during a most trying period of my life. You shared my agony and was ready to be of any assistance.
I pray our Almighty God to empower and console your lovely family whom you have left behind and may your soul and the souls of all faithfuls departed rest with our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

The news of Engr. Joe Udegbe's death came as a great shock. A nice man I have known to be a shining example of how to love and appreciate one's family as special gift from God. I will never forget all the ways Engr. Joe Udegbe motivated my family to make our children's education as our investment priority. Despite leaving the world so soon, everyone who knew him closely would be consoled by his sincere service to God and humanity through strict adherence to the Catholic faith that he genuinely practised and lived to the admiration of all. May God grant our late Engr. Joseph Udegbe eternal rest in His heavenly kingdom. Amen.
A truly genuine and loving man
We both were born in Kafanchan a few years apart and met almost three decades ago through our dear spouses (Kassey and Bola). When I look up I see the beautiful gift you gave us as our wedding gifts. It still adorns our living room as it has for over twenty two years. It says a lot about you: strong, meticulous, perfectionist, enduring and lovely.
Kassey and I always admired your loving devotion to your wife, your children, your parents, your parents in-law and your siblings. We always thought of you as Bola's number one fan, most loving and most dependable husband for she was always the bone of your bone and the flesh of your flesh and your admiration for her was always too plain to see. You were truly a unique person. You shared yourselves with your friends.
Kassey and I remember with joy and gratitude to God those times we shared at Christmas as we alternated between your home, the Akingbade's and our home. They were full of lovely and lasting memories.
Kassey and I will always treasure these memories. We thank God for your life, for you were also devoted to the Lord with whom you are now resting. We give Him glory for your life and for your family. We believe that He will comfort and watch over them and fill the void that your going to be with the Lord has left in their lives and in our lives.
We shall truly miss you until we meet to part no more. Adieu our dear friend 'uncle Joe'
Garba and Kassey
