Chief(Mrs) Julie F. Ade-Cole was(painful to use this past tense) beautiful inside and outside. A very loving, loyal, and dependable friend, she could go the extra mile to be of help to her loved ones. She called me sometime ago about her ill health. I promised to visit her but circumstances beyond my control made this impossible and now this! I am so sad that I was not able to make that visit. Very fond memories of the time we shared together is all I have now. She was very energetic and committed to whatever cause she had set to accomplish. No wonder she has such a rich resùme. I pray that God will console and strengthen the family that she left behind. Be consoled that she has gone to rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.

What can I say? Our big mummy.... it still feels like a dream. You were funny, fiercely intelligent, a force not to be messed with, and one of the most caring people that I have ever known. Family was everything to you and you have left a legacy of children and grandchildren who all display traits of the best parts of you. We will miss you dearly but try to take comfort in knowing that heaven has gained one of the greats.

To your children (my cousins), I am extremely saddened and grieve with you as we all mourn big mummy but I can't even imagine your level pain right now. I'm in total admiration of your strength and the way you've been there for each other; as well as all of us who have been reaching out to you all to express our shock and dismay. Love you all.

Mummy Ade-Cole, (of Odogba Lila)
We thank God for your life and pray that the Lord God will grant unto the family the fortitude to bear the loss.
For your Children, may the Almighty God fill the gap that is created by you passing on in Jesus's Name.Amen.
My discussion with you on the plane from Abroad to Abuja realy showed me of your relentless patriotism to the nation and to Owe community.
I recall and I recall and I recall.
Adieu a true mother, a true lover of people!Good night.

A loving and caring heart, a mother to cherish, may ur beautiful soul rest in perfect peace alwayzz, Amen...
As u've left us with so many sweet memories, we shall celebrate your life with them, as u rest in The Lord 4ever, Amen

Can't think of a better song for your page... ☺️... "I will always love you."

I can never wish for a best foster mum than you mummy. We met in the church, St Matthew Anglican Church Maitama Abuja Choir and clicked. You were the strength pushing the new choir to stand. You became my friend, my second mummy, my jist partner and music teacher. Your alto voice so amazing. I was told the last you came to the church asking about me, alas, I was on duty that day and not in church. How can I ever forget your love and care. You opened my eyes to entanglement that would have destroyed me. I still refused to say goodnight my own Mummy. I love you and will always do. I look forward to seeing you on the resurrection morning where we will sing before the Awesome Throne of God. I will always love you Mum. Sleep tight sweet mother. Let the angels guide you home. Adieu Saint Triumphant.

Mama, your life was well spent here on earth, you are sold out both to God and humanity, you show us what it means to love the Lord and the reward that is there in your legacy cannot be erased we love and missed you so much. From your son Dele. Good night mama.

I remember mama as a strong woman, she was a no nonsense woman (Obirin bi Okunrin) who loved and always looked out for all the kids around. Mama you will be really missed ....may you continue to rest in the lords bosom. ♥ always

Aunty Julie was a woman of substance. She had a good heart very loving and warm to all at St Mathew's Anglican Church Maitama.Abuja. She loved God and demonstrated this by joining the Choir to praise God and render spiritual service. We both robed and enjoyed each other's company in the Choir. She was my best senior friend and sister in Abuja for many years before her demise.Farewell my dear aunty,  A o pade lese Jesu. Ni bi ti a ko ni yara wa, A o ri rawa, Ao yo mara wa, Jesu ni yio se alaga wa.

These days you see a lot of children abandon their parents in old age but not yours. And that is how I know you are truly a special woman. Your children were by your side throughout your illness. You were a priority for them, especially your first girl, Funmi, Cole-Aka who is my work colleague. I saw how much she loved you and wanted you comfortable at all times and I knew you must be a special woman, a true mother. I met you twice and I can't forget the last time. You were so happy and jovial when we came to see you. You sang and played with us. You told us stories about "Suzie". It was such a beautiful time.

That is the memory I always have of you which makes it so hard to believe you are gone forever. May your soul rest in peace mummy. No more pain. You were greatly loved. Your beautiful legacy lives on.

Funmi! Take heart. You are an example of what a good child should be like. God bless you and your siblings for taking care of mummy diligently till the end. May you receive strength and comfort in this difficult time. You are a hero.

Sai mun zo mummy. Sleep well.

It is never easy to loose a loved one and especially hard to loose a mother. Mummy, you were such a wonderful person, so warm and sweet. I am finding it so difficult to understand that you have left this world. Your love remains in my heart. Thank you for all the lives you've affected positively, continue to rest in the blossom of the Lord. We will forever miss you.

Life is like a market where people Rose and go in the morning, when you I done shopping you can go and meet with ur maker in the evening. Good night Mama till we live to meet again

What can I say? Still feels like a dream! Mommy...Ah...

I still remember how u call my name Leonardo DaVinci.i still remember how u always support me when I have issues with Demilade I still remember your show of love. You are a mother to all not just to ur kids. The truth remains we can't question God. Keep resting in the Lord sweet mum till we meet again.

My mummy, I will forever miss u. U were so kind and looked out for everyone around u. A strong woman u were! Ha! Mrs Julie Ade Cole , I will forever miss u my mummy

“You will lose someone you can’t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.” Adieu Sweet Mother

Mummy continue to rest in the bosom of your Lord,a caring mother, a warrior, a philantropist,and brilliant personality per excellence, I will miss your gist,your hospitality and your good advice .Mummy you meant so much to me ,sleep on till we meet on resurrection day. Ao pade lese Jesu lojo ajinde. O daaro,goodnight.

Oh my God! Mummy passed on? Oh Jesus! We thank you our Heavenly Father for the life of Mummy. A worthy life! A peaceful life! A life with the pains of Nigeria's trouble in your heart! A life of patriotism! A life of humility! A life of devotion and fear of God! A life of hardwork! A life of tolerance! A life sacrifice! A life of love and kindness! A life of cheerfulness. Oh my dear Mummy,, you loved and cared for all of us. You did not rest but kept in the struggle to build the Nigeria of our dream have told us the complete contrast of what we have compared to your Nigeria when you were growing up. You are a Heroine. You made us proud of you. Rest in peace. Rest sweetly in the Bosom of the Lord.

Oh my dear Mummy forgive me my planned visit could not hold before you passed on. I am sorry. I have been away in school. And I know you will thumb up for me and say "Son don't worry you are busy in a productive engagement and building insurance against the future, well done".
Oh how I missed the opportunity to hear you for the last moment. I and all of us your good children will miss you. Mummy rest in perfect peace and in the bosom of the LORD. We give God all the glory for a well lived life. Thank you for your impact on our lives. Adieu Mama. Adieu Chief Lady Cole.

Dear Mr. & Mrs Ayo Daini,


We were just re-informed about the transition of Mama unto eternal glory on the 1st June, 2021 .

We ought to have extended our condolences with your family if we had seen this tribute page earlier . However, we do know that death is our fate and courageously the terminal or inevitable end of all mortals.

May the good Lord console Mrs Ayo-Diana’s family , enfolds all her siblings with love at this crucial period , grant repose of the soul of the departed and give her eternal rest.


Eyin mama adara!

Out heartfelt sympathy and condolences, please.


Princess Yetunde & Engr. Ayo Ogunsakin, FNSE .

Adieu Mama. Rest in perfect peace.

Woman of Steel, my Warrior, Okunrin meta. Sleep tight Momma.

We love you Mummy.

I will forever carry you in my heart.

What can I say? You were a mother to so many of us. Growing up as a church girl in St. Peter’s Anglican Church Adewole, Ilorin, you were our choir mistress, so beautiful and loving.... I can’t forget how you shake to the music while directing, I have replayed all those choir practices in my head over and over again. You are special in so many ways mummy. You were selfless, Abiyamo toto E sun re o till the resurrection morning!!
