My dear Kike,
Words seem feeble in moments like these. Life is so precious and death such a thief. The depth of your pain i cannot comprehend, but I will stand alongside you in these trying times, my dear friend. The love of a mother is a bond that death cannot part. Though gone from your arms, but still in your heart. May the care and love of those around you provide comfort and peace through the days ahead. My most sincere and heartfelt condolences. 

My "one and only"..... I will miss you very much.
I am thankful to God for knowing you.
Rest in the Lord.

Kike dear,please accept my heartfelt condolences. Mother is the most expensive being on earth.No one and nothing can fill the void created by the loss of a dear mother.I know how you feel right now.I pray that God will grant you strength and may our Lord bless and comfort you and your family during this time of grief.Sleep on aunty Mosun.

Mummy, yours was a life devoid of troubles. Easy going and kind hearted, a committed mother & grandmother in every sense of the word.
Many thanks for all the blessings that emanates from your household. I was introduced to you in September 2006 when I came to resume a new job in Port Harcourt. And the first question you asked me was “will you be looking for a place to rent soon?” That was how I became one of your tenants few months later and remained one for 8 years. You treated me like your son, which earned me “Femi Omo Mummy” among your tenants.
Your words of encouragement was second to non. You showed lots of concern when I and my wife were believing God for our own kids. I remembered how happy you were when God blessed us with a set of Quadruplets. Even after I left Port Harcourt in 2014, you still kept in touch, and always asking after the Quads and there mum.
It's so hard to say goodbye. Many thanks for all your unflinching love, supports and your usual prayers for all of us.
I pray that God will console Daddy and the rest of the family that you left behind.
Rest well Mummy! I will really miss you and the memories of you will never die!!

If only life could be assured by one's strength, i will not be writing this, because your strength, faith and trust in God was amazing. But it has please the Lord that you should come and rest. Aunty Mosun may your gentle soul rest in peace. Our prayers go out to the family you have left behind.
We pray that the Lord will stregthen and comfort them .

*Tribute to our Beloved and Amiable Mother Mosun*

We never thought that this month’s post will be a tribute to a dearly beloved and lovely member of our Society, the Confraternity of Christian Mothers of the Catholic Church of the Transfiguration, VGC. But we give thanks to God who knows everything and who gives different purpose to our lives on earth.

Dear Mother Mosun, you were a woman of great love, you spent quality time with us in the church and made great impact on the Society reaching out to us always. We experienced your wonderful faith and hope in life and also your great concern for everyone and the society at large. May God rest your soul. Amen!!

Though we will all miss you but we hold onto faith that we will meet one day face to face in the Heavenly Abode where we will part no more. We will continue to commit your soul to God in our prayers.

We express our deepest condolences to Dr. Odigie and the entire family. May our Heavenly Father comfort and console you all with His Peace and everlasting Love. Amen 

Adieu Mother Mosun till we meet again.

Love,
The Confraternity of Christian Mothers, Catholic Church of the Transfiguration VGC.

A good heart has stopped beating, a good soul ascended to heaven. We part with our beloved grandma in pain and at the same time in joy, because she has played her part leading us by example and now is our turn to do the same. You will never be forgotten ma. R. I. P.

You were a mother to all who knew you , kind and very caring , May God grant the entire family the grace and fortitude to bear this . We love you but God loves you more.
May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace

I always saw Aunty Mosun as tall and dignified. A woman of strength who would keep her council but wouldn't hesitate to put you in your place if she felt you were out of line. A kind heart with a smiling face whenever I saw and greeted her.
The last time I saw Aunty, she was battling her illness had-on and promised to defy the doctors - and she did - bravely!
Goodnight Aunty, may your beautiful soul rest in perfect peace.

Dear mummy though I met you for the first time in the uk when you were sick I could still feel peace radiate all over you. I could still feel your strength and power even at those trying times.
May the good lord accept your blessed soul and May you rest eternally in his bosom as you take every step henceforth in gold. Heavens gain. You remain precious in our hearts. Lots of love
MRS TIMI DUMBO
KIKES FRIEND

You were a source of joy, love and blessings not just to your immediate family but to everyone you met even in your last days. You will Forever remain in our hearts.

Adieu Mama!

A woman of substance
A doting mother
An adoring grandma
A vine yard worker
A faithful wife
A virtuous woman.
One of a kind
We love you
God loves you best.
Rest on in His bosom.
Good night

Aunty you were very much a part of my childhood and I remember you were always smiling and very nice to me. You were actually one of the people I looked forward to seeing at UPTH because I knew I would always get something to drink or eat. You were a big sister to my mom and I am very thankful for everything that you were to her. We could all tell when you were around because there was so much joy and laughter in the room.
My sincere condolences to Uncle, Oma, Kike, Erumose, Funmi, and Obehi, i know you are in a better place free from any suffering. Rest in perfect peace till we meet again.

It is with a heavy heart but total submission to God’s will that I join the host of well meaning friends and well wishers of Kike Ahmed Raji and family to mourn the death of her dear mom. I never met Mama but knowing her daughter Kike should be a glimpse of her good-nature.
I imagine that she must have been the kind of person that her openness and uprightness lit up the room. There’s never a good time to lose a parent but be consoled that your loss of her here on earth is Heaven’s gain. You now have a guardian Angel who is in God’s presence with all the other saints and even our Blessed Mother Mary, constantly interceding for you and family. I pray that God be gracious to you, grant y’all the grace to bear her loss and crown your efforts here on earth with salvation so y’all can see her again face to face in heaven after our sojourn here on earth in Jesus name

Auntie, the last time I saw you in Port Harcourt, I walked up to greet you and I asked after your friend and my late Uncle's wife, Mrs Ogundairo. Your reply was that she's fine, then you asked 'when last did you call her ?' You fall my hand there and then as they say in Warri. You were someone who would say it as it is, not minding whose ox is gored. Frank to a fault, but very gentle and caring. You then gave me her phone number. You have played your part very well in the theatre of life, it's up to the left behinds to continue the good work. May God, the Almighty receive your soul in His Bossom and grant you eternal rest in Him.
Oma, Kike and other siblings, please accept our condolences and Congratulations for the grace and privilege to be the ones to bury your mum. Uncle Goddy, my Oga, please take heart. May His grace be sufficient for you.

Sunre Auntie Mosun.

Auntie mi, ah. I will miss you. Thank you for being there, closer than a mother, Auntie, grandma. Thank you for being Danny's first grandma, for the fried rice, for your care and kindness. Rest in peace, Auntie. Rest.

May the good Lord grant the entire family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. Mummy you came, you saw and you conquered. You’re heavens gain. Rest in perfect peace ma!

An active member of the Yoruba Community and the CWO, Morning Star group of St. John's Catholic Church, Rumuokwurusi, Portharcourt. She was such an amazing and loving mummy.
May your soul rest in Perfect Peace mummy. Adieu

Death is not the end but the start of another journey.
What you left behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.. your family, friends, loved ones and the society at large.
You are sorely missed.
Ukamaka Nsugbe (Kike's business friend)

Your final call was a huge surprise.
We never get used to the news of death.
You were lovely, supportive , down to earth and good.
May God grant you perfect peace and console the family and friends that you have left behind. Adieu Aunty!

From Maureen Williams

You have my condolences at this time. Know that you are not alone. Our sympathy is with you and the family in this your time of grieving. We are keeping you and yours in our prayers and thoughts

The time I met and chatted with Mrs. Odigie about 9 years ago, I was amazed and humbled to realize what a humble and pleasant woman she was. Still very pretty and looking young at that age, I admired her greatly. It is sad to learn of her passing. Oma, my friend, sure you and your entire family would have loved to have her around for much longer, but we now have to wish her peace, joy and farewell on her sojourn. May her path be lighted, Amen.
I wish you and the rest of the family members the strength to go through this period, calling in mind your father, the amiable Dr. Odigie.

Mrs. Nonye Niyi-Afolabi

Dear Kike, I never met Mummy. But the power of imagination is a blessed gift.
Looking at your life and what you have done with your kids( her grand kids), one can say Mummy raised generational assets.
She may have gone but her kindness wisdom love and welcoming spirit lives on through her children. She lived a blessed life. I pray God grant her soul eternal rest and comfort all of you.

I felt very bad the day I heard the news of your death. Made me to remember that there is nothing on earth. We all will join you one day. I just hope you spent more time on earth. Though we can't question God. You are one of the calmest person I have met. Will miss your warm reception whenever I visit your house and your sweet smile. May almighty God help your children also to bear the pains of your exit . And may your wonderful and tender soul rest in perfect peace. Amen

My Gyavira Osuji

We pass through life and sometimes some memories stick like yesterday. Some of my childhood adventures were organized by some women who thought to add some fun and adventure to our school holiday breaks. Anytime Aunty was an organizer, I was sure it would be fun and well thought out. One look and you knew maybe I should not be doing that. Her laughter and smile still very vivid after all these years. This space is not enough to tell it all but I know SPDC PH would never have been the same without you. RIP to a beautiful heart. Let’s keep that smile and laughter closest in this very difficult time. Love Kome

Tony & Oma,
My wife and I feel the pain of Mama's transition as we have both experienced this. Mama is just irreplaceable!!. However be consoled that it is a transition to Glory. Remember that ' Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of HIS saints. Psalm 116:15. We all love her but Jesus loves her more. May the good Lord strengthen and comfort you all.
Gbenga & Eunice Ajayi. 

I pray for the peaceful repose of Mama's soul. She lived a full life and raised amazing children! May God comfort you All and grant you the grace and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. Amen.

Mama from everything I have read or heard about you and interacting with your daughters there is no doubt you were a great, good and virtuous woman: It’s hard to see a good heart leaves but our consolation it’s that you are with your maker! We love you but God loves you more: May your gentle soul continue to rest in perfect peace IJMN:
Amen
Mrs Susan Itemuagbor From Forever living Nigeria family

Rest well in the bosom of the Lord Ma. God will continue to guide and protect all your family members, children, grandchildren and loved ones in Jesus name. Amen.

I believe the people we love never die. They live on in us. We thank God for a life of purpose. To have lived and impacted others is a blessing. We see you in the excellent children and grand children you leave behind. God Almighty give Tony and Oma and the rest of the family fortitude to bear your parting.

I remember vividly as a little girl in Warri your warm motherly care when on play dates in your house you would control us subtly even with all our noise and mess.
I look back and see how our parents kept and treasured relationships then, creating time to spend with friends at Warri Club playing lawn tennis and bingo(tombola night). Knowing the true meaning of friendship.
You had a tall domineering figure but never used it to a disadvantage.
Though i hadn’t seen you for a while, i kept up with happenings through Kike.
You called me in March 2020, after my mum’s passing to commiserate with me and say how proud you were that I gave her a befitting funeral. I promised to see you on my next trip to Lagos but the lock down didn’t let.
It was a rude shock to hear about your demise, but in all things we give thanks to God for life well lived. You are now resting with the angels.
My deep condolences to her husband, children and grandchildren. Pray The Good Lord will grant comfort to each one of you.
Eternal rest grant unto Mosunmade Odigie and let Perpetual Light shine upon her.
Amen!

Mama, though I never met you but I sure know the meaning of losing a mum. Oma and her siblings I can feel you. To a special mummy Odigie may heaven grant her eternal peaceful rest. May your children and the entire family be comforted.

You were an angel missing from heaven . I called you mummy , thanking God for the opportunity of knowing a loving soul such as yours because you treated me like a daughter. Your smiles and motherly embrace always gave me joy. Missing you so much already but I take consolation in Christ Jesus, to give you peaceful rest in His bosom .
It is impossible to fully recount the numerous ways you imparted my family so powerfully.. We all miss you so much here but the unquestionable lord God knows best.
May your soul , mummy and the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in perfect peace. Amen.

Dearest Aunty Mosun, your home was the surest place to eat amala and soup for it was at yours i first had any.
You lived life with purpose and dignity. You will forever be loved and missed.

Rest in peace aunty as your legacy will remain with us forever.

To our sweetest Aunty. A most beautiful. One most admired and adored. One full of strength, wise words, filled with wisdom waiting for us to imbibe. One with admirable poise and character.

O Aunty I feel like there's still so much we haven't heard from you. So much you haven't said.
I feel like you shouldn't have gone now.
I'd miss you so much. I mean we; the kid's on Ibobio street, the kids on Ibibio street, the Teachers of Tessy International School, the shell girls guide association, the shell kids in general, we'll miss you so much.

God knows best Aunty. God bless you as you live on, in the Lord's vineyard.

Karo (Uriri) Ewere Nimem.

Aunty was like no other both in our childhood and as adults. As children, we sensed that she was much more than our Mommy’s friend. She was one of our parents too. A kind soul, someone we could trust, someone who self-lessly loved and cared about our wellbeing too. 
I have a vivid memory of being five years old and having Mrs. Odigie pick me up from Primary school to take me to a clinic because I wasn’t feeling well and my Mom was working a shift as a nurse. As an adult with kids of my own I now know what type of value that level of friendship between mother-friends really holds. Through childhood to our adulthood, Aunty was a present friend-turned-sister to my Mom, and a bonus parent to my siblings and myself.

She was a pillar of strength, a fountain of grace, and a source of joy throughout her journey. We love you tremendously Aunty. We miss you.

May God keep you forever. Amen.

You fought the good fight
Now the tears are springing forth a new life where there will be no more tears.
May God’s perpetual light be your reward for all those dark nights
May His eternal rest wipe away the once restless struggles you had to endure.
Rest In Peace...now is your time...Adieu Sister
