It is with heavy hearts and sadness that we announce the homegoing of our dear Sister, Mother, Grandmother, Mother In-Law, Aunt (Anti) and Friend - Mrs Simbiat Olufunke Anike Eso - Nee Bakare (Omo Abu Olowo, Abu Olododo) who slept in the Lord on Friday, November 9, 2012. While our hearts are broken by this sad news, we will continue to celebrate her life and legacy!
"Iya Yaba", "Mommy Tom Tom", "Alhaja", "Anti", "Berra Mommy", "Iya Oko mi" and the list goes on, as she was fondly called by different people, was simply Mom to us! Our mom who worked for many years at the NIgerian High Commission in London before returning home, was first a homemaker and then a Business Woman and a devoted mother to Dele (Shido), Omokayode (Kay), Abi (Biodun) and Toyin (Oluwatoyin Alake), their spouses, many grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
She touched the lives of many! She will be remembered for willingness to give to others selflessly of her time, presence and money, and her equisite fashion style! Our mom had a passion for life, beauty, elegance and fashion. In her later year, she became a Christian, having given her life to Christ. We are eternally thankful for this decision she made to have a relationship with God. Although, our mom is no more on this side, We will never forget her legacy and the sacrifices she made for us!

Heb 12:1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wherefore seeing YOU also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset YOU, and run with patience the race that is set before u, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of your faith;
I pray for Abi and her children that God will give them all, the strength to deal with their loss. God knows best and mama is free from any sufferings. .
Biodun pele it is well
Derin
You are much loved and will be much missed. Rest in peace Mama.
And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Now God’s presence is with people, and he will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them and will be their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, sadness, crying, or pain, because all the old ways are gone.”
