Tributes
Leave a tributeI only heard about the news of your passing today, through Yunus, and am, like him, in shock. I had only just messaged you on Facebook to wish you a happy birthday.
We spent the formative years of our lives together at St Marylebone Grammar School, and learnt much from each other. I remember going to some martial arts shop in Soho with you during a summer holiday. I remember your fondness for the movie The Warriors and how your toughness melded so serenely with your humour and your philosophical take on life. After school, we didn't see each other for years until we serendipitously bumped into each other on the Jubilee line in our 40s! And, apart from a little less hair, we picked up exactly where we had left off. You were an extraordinary man with grace and elegance and ridiculously large muscles. And you were so compassionate and so much fun to be with. I am glad we were able to share some of our life's journeys in each other's company.
Your friend,
Ab

Happy Birthday Dad <3

Wow what a horrible shock, only found out now and am dumbfounded. You were in my bro’s class 4 years below at St. Marylebone Grammar School all those years ago but I always loved your company and enthusiasm for life. I always tell anyone that wants to hear how you strengthened your arms in hot sand so when you injured it once the A&E doctors broke the suture needle because your skin was so tough.
You gave me advice often and you’re an inspiration to many people I’m sure even to this day.
Love you bro. x
I am completely shocked to discover just now of your passing and more shocked to find out you passed away over 2 year ago. I feel so guilty for not picking up the phone more frequently. We first met at St. Marylebone Grammar School in 1975 and remained thick as thieves ever since not withstanding our Marvel vs. DC Comics and Man United vs. Chelsea rivalries. I just told my daughter who is also shocked - she remembers playing PlayStation 2 with you here in Switzerland nearly 15 years ago and seeing you last at my 50th birthday bash in London. My condolences go out to your daughter, your sister, your brothers who I all know well and the rest of your family and friends.
Rest easy, brother x

I am in shock having only just heard of your passing in June 2018.
We were at school together at St Marylebone Grammar School and whilst we only caught up a few times since leaving school, I always enjoyed our get-togethers and remember your kindness and humour. Yunus’ 50th birthday celebrations immediately spring to mind.
Always looking for the positives in life and saying ‘everything is beautiful’.
My heartfelt condolences to your family.
I miss you my good friend.

We met a couple of days before to agree on how the specifics along with Maymunah Kadiri. The topic of our discussion was Finding Your Happy.
Kayode was big, strong, bubbly, positive, energetic. He left a very strong and lasting impression on me.
I was shocked to see a post by Maymunah today on FB that included RIPP Kayode and I went online to search.
When our hospital was moving to a new location end 2017/early 2018, I called Kayode to see if he would be interested in providing some wellness therapy to some of my patients and he said he would think about it and get back to me.
I never heard from him again. Little did I know he had passed on.
He’s reunited with his Mum who meant so much to him. In our brief interactions, he communicated that clearly to me.
RIP dear Kayode
All we have left are the memories bro. All we can do now is continue to pray for you, which I do. i miss you my brother.
Kayode, as you continue to sleep peacefully, your memories we shall always keep with us. Rest well my brother.
Paths cannot be taught only taken...find your gift, then give it away...those words a very comforting as I continue to push ahead in life... This world misses you greatly but we are comforted by your legacy.
Continue to rest in power our egbon Kayode Fahm.
Leyla (Tolulope) is making you proud. We pray that God will continue to comfort and heal her heart, because we know you’ll want her to be happy. We trust that you are reigning in peace
For almost a decade whilst he was working in london we became very close friends. He came into my gym in london back in '89...I'm a competitive bodybuilder...and quietly watched me training intensly until one day he approached me and asked if he could join in. Normally i NEVER train with anyone, but there was something about his aura, so i welcomed him. That was the beginning of our years of friendship. In fact i went to his wedding, where i was supposed to have sang. I also sing...and i remember encouraging him to pursue his guitar training! I also shared the news of his new born daughter with him...& met his beloved mother! The other interest we both shared were comics. He was into the kung fu chronologies...i was into conan. In fact i introduced him to my comic book shop in tottenham, london. It would honour me to have contact with his family...especially his daughter... as i have some pics of us together when he accompanied me to one of my contests.
But once again my very most heartfelt condolences to his family.
-Paul Simpson
we spoke on the 22nd and he was full of life. Tolulope may Almighty God comfort you and your Mum. May his gentle soul rest in peace

You were such an inspiration to many people.
They say no one truly dies until their name is spoken for the last time
This is not the last time Mr Kayode Fahm
Please be patient.
Kayode Fahm was one inspirational personality I longed to meet since the first time I read an article he wrote on career development in the now rested magazine " BOTTOM LINE" . I am very shocked to have discovered today he passed on last year while I was researching on internet and came across someone else bearing his surname ( Abdulraheem Fahm of Visionscape). I suddenly remembered him and just typed Kayode Fahm into the browser search to check on what he is up to now and the first link that came up was this memorial site. I can't just explain the motions now but rather than being demoralised I found greater motivation from the opening quote .You were a gift to this generation , to Nigeria, Africa and the world. You life is an inspiration in being deliberate.,focused and passionate about the things we care and love. It is painful I never had the opportunity to meet you but I will always find consolation in the legacy you have left behind for the world. May you worthy deeds keep resonating to inspire all your admirers to leave the world a better place.RIP Mr Kayode FAHM.
Remembering Ky by Jack Kontou
I still can’t believe the news I received from my friend Paul (ky’s training partner).
Total shock, so, so sad.
I met ky back in the early 90’s in the gym training and we became friends from sharing the passion and love for the martial arts. We had many great conversations about martial arts and combat when he came to visit me at my Kung fu school. We also shared and exchanged many Kung fu films which we both loved. He had such a passion for life.
I will always remember he was a giant of a man with a smile to match.
Rest in peace my friend, you will always be remembered,my condolences to the family. Jack Kontou.
Tolulope may Almighty God comfort you and your Mum. May his gentle soul rest in peace
