Bola, Dupe
Stay strong.
I wish I could talk to you for a while
as time goes by...
We would never say goodbye
Happy Birthday Pop - I will still light a candle for you today!
It's rather interesting that there are quite a few people around me now that truly get what's it feels like to have a hole in your heart that no one else can fill.
I love you always and I know that you are one more Angel from above watching over me and just a thought away.
Who could know for certain? Maybe you're still here... I feel you all around me and your memory is so clear... deep in the stillness, I can hear you speak...
Love,
Dupe

azing brother-in-law so I guess I can say you would have made an amazing pops-in-law. May Allah grant you eternal peace and make it possible for us all to reunite in Jannah someday ISA! Rest on
Yet I miss your physical presence!
Lots and lots of love
There's so much left to say if you were with me today face to face
I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on, I wish I could talk to you for while
Miss you but try hard not to cry as time goes by
Though it's true that you've reached a better place
Still I'd give the world to see you face
But it's like you're gone too soon
Now the hardest thing do...
...is say bye!
It still feels like yesterday.
Today I light a candle for you and remember all the pleasant memories with you growing up and even as an adult...the many jokes we shared, the prayers you consistently showered over us and the patience you demonstrated.
Aliyah and I were chatting about you yesterday and she was very surprised to learn that I had never experienced you angry (she wished I had picked that attribute...I'm getting there though). Afterwards, I searched the corners of my brain for at least one furious moment I may have missed...none! A little displeased maybe, but never angry or furious. How is that even possible?
You are truly a hero in so many ways and the world is definitely less cool without your presence. I am very proud to have you as my dad and I miss you every single day but I do know that you're watching over us from beyond.
Rest in perfect peace Dad until we meet again.
It is really saddening for me because it is in your absence that I truly understand when people refer to someone as being "a great man".
Daddy, my pops! You are the greatest man I have ever known and I sincerely wish you are around to see your children and grand children and also have that evening drink with us in our homes. Rest is peace, Allah knows best.
Its that silent strength that gives us the courage to forge ahead till today. A true inspiration. I salute you sir.
Rest in peace Uncle!
Rest in peace - I know that you are in a perfect place. I am thankful that after so many years I still get to visit with you in my dreams. What a gift and a blessing.
Know that not a day goes by that I don't think about you. You're always in my heart and in my mind, I know that you are still here and your memory surely lives on forever!
Xoxoxoxo
A simple and highly principled gentleman you were
Cannot believe it's almost 10 years since ALLAH the Knower of all things took you away at an age too soon.....
This is Praying you are resting Peacefully in Al-Jannah Firdausi...Ameen summa Ameen...
I wish I had gotten to know you a lot better because I have heard a lot of wonderful stories about you. You will be in our hearts forever and I'll see you in about 80 years or so. Lots of love ~ Aisha ❤️
Rest in peace - you are forever missed!

You are forever missed ♥️
Little lady
I was super-excited and kept asking what it was, but you said I would need to come with you and your friend to fulfill that special task that only I could perform. I remember smiling all through the short trip in the back seat of the car, filled to the brim with enthusiasm.
Turns out, the friend had locked himself out of their family home and the only way in was through a tiny bathroom window that only I (of course) could fit through. With your usual gentle guidance, I fit perfectly through the tiny window into the bathroom, landed on the thankfully closed toilet seatand made my way to the front door to open it. I remember feeling invincible, joyful and euphoric the whole day! You were so proud of me and I must say that was probably one of my best childhood memories of our time together :)
Miss you but glad I can still reach you in my very quiet moments
Others passed, my friends parents passed, even your friends that I knew did as well but when The Almighty decided that it was you next, we didnt plan for it, we didnt think it would ever be your turn, at least not just yet........then you left...........*uncontrolled tears* ...........It was only then that your departure brought me to this rude awakening that I would leave as well one day. That event changed my life forever, I was more aware of my life, your exit, my purpose and most of all, death. I'm more thankful than sad that I was alive to witness you leave..maybe I wouldn't have had the kind of understanding I required to thrive here (loosing someone so so close. My daddy. I was your black queen..iyem). I only miss you.
I thought I was strong till I saw uncle Mutiu early this year.......For a moment there, I thought it was you * uncontrolled tears* .....then I broke down realising it was your brother. He consoled me just the way you would have. I couldn't help it bit tears kept pouring.... I couldn't even greet him well. I cried till he left. I thank Allah for choosing you as my daddy.
I see you in my dreams and you always look happy....I guess. There was once I saw you all dressed up in your shinny light blue agbada and you gave us money for eid/salad.
I'm ok now. I've stopped crying so I guess I'll stop typing now. Alhamdulillah rubbil a ala min.
I pray you remain in peace forever amin.innalillah wa inna ilayhi raajiun. From Him we came and to Him we shall all return.
