Daddy, a great Icon with a humble spirit. A father figure to all, I'm honored to have had the grace to encounter him. Though you're no longer with us on earth, but we know you're in a better place and you've only gone ahead of us. We can only ask why? But know pretty much that only God knows best! Till we meet again at the feet of the Lord...rest in peace sir

Dearest Daddy, I still freshly remember meeting you through my friend, Blessing and how quickly you became a father figure to me during my school days. I rejoiced always at the sound of "Taiwo, Daddy is calling you outside" whenever you came visiting. It wasn't the additional pocket money that mattered but the words of wisdom you shared at every visit, the jokes, laughter, stories and prayers ! Those words are still carrying me through today, Daddy. I miss you very much. I pray The Lord himself will fill the vacuum you've left behind. Sleep on, dear Father.

TRIBUTE TO AN ICON
How sweet are the memory of a loved one. Hearing of your demise was a shock unto me but it is well! You came, you fought and you conquered!
Pastor Deji was an uncommon generous man of God, he was our choir leader in the early days of RCCG Ede, Osun state. He fed us, sheltered us and carried us about in the service of the Kingdom. All your deposits in my life is still working. May God continue to be with the family you left behind. In Jesus name. Sleep on the beloved of God till we meet to part no more. Pastor Ezekiel Ayoola,Regional Evangelist, Region 7. Yola

Daddy, we bless God for the beautiful journey.
We thank God for using you to populate His Kingdom. That's His wish for us as believers. When I heard of your departure, I was sad, but the consolation I have is, you have gone to be with The Father. That thought brightened my mood. Thank you sir for your labour of love. Thank you sir for making your house a home for all.
During Covid-19 you opened your door very wide to accommodate everyone for service.
The parlour was filled, you weren't bothered, that was a huge sacrifice that I wouldn't forget.
Not so many people would take that.
Thank you for praying for us .
Again, I am glad you are resting, you really fought a good fight.

Daddy, Daddy , this is how I usually calls you anytime we meet each , other and you will respond by a smile, You are a symbol of humility respect and giving,.I met you as a senior brother to my husband,from my wedding day and you maintain the position till you went to be with the Lord ,thanks for your love for me my children and my family,we missed you dearly.
Rest in peace sir till the resurrection morning

A TRIBUTE TO A GREAT     FATHER
Death is painful; however, death taking a precious jewel like you pastor Sunday Abel Adedeji Omo Oluwaluyi, is more painful. You are a man with a good heart who cared so much about friends and family. You contributed to the development of every single person you met on your path and you never seized to be an inspiration to all. Thank you for living a great and fulfilled life. You are greatness personified. Your contribution to communities, Churches development is first-class. You made everybody happy; you mentored a good number of us into greatness. You were not the only great one; you made all of us great too. Thank you for a life well spent.You are without a doubt a great personality; you are intelligent, discerning, attentive, and full of knowledge. You show so much compassion and display a lot of humility so much that every one of us seeks to emulate you. Your loving memory will ever remain a monument in our hearts. .Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them. You were born great and also went ahead to achieve more greatness. You have shown every one of us and everyone around you what true greatness means. Thank you for a life well spent. Adieu and Good night Sir
Love from Prince Oluwafemi Fredrick Ayodele

My Big Daddy.
Oh how we all miss you
I remember when me and Dammy and bro niyi and praise gained admission to redeemers college, and how you'd come almost every weekend with provision and beverages and food for all of us. Sometimes I would have spoilt my slippers and I remember you'd buy my exact size for me by just checking if it fits your own leg . Then on holidays we'll all go to ede ,my most blessed memory of you is the day you said I should keep playing instruments that God gifted us with music, I also remember when Dammy and praise cooked pap and it wasn't nice ,you put sugar in our front but didn't allow us to take it to teach us discipline and also teach us to always do things right. I love you Sir, Thank you for always scolding me about sleeping during devotion hours I don't do it anymore and sleeping too much ,I manage my time well now☺️ and for always teaching us about Christ and evangelism.
Continue to rest in the bosom of Jesus Big Daddy
I love and cherish you sir.

My loving Daddy,
The only one that calls me "Adenike" and my head will Swell.
I never expected you I'll leave us. Your death made me to understand that God’s timings and ours are not the same. You struggled so hard to live but God's plan was for you to come home.
Dad, you are a true definition of a hero,The most courageous,Caring,Amazing,Supporting,Ever loving. You cared for us,Never let us lack. Gave us whatever we need to make us comfortable and contented.
I never questioned if you loved or cared for us because you made it so obvious.
Thank you for loving me wholeheartedly, Thank you for showing us the ways of thy lord,For discipling us,i remembered how you always tell us to memorize bible verses everyday and explain whatever we read. A man that loved God.
I remember how I held your hands and prayed for you that morning not knowing it was going to be the last time,I'll hold you on earth. The words I got from God on the night of your departure gave me an assurance that, it was truly God's will to bring you home. Continue to rest in the Bossom of thy lord. Till we meet again.
I love you forever, Dad. I miss you. 
Adenike ADEDEJI (Daughter)

Dear Dad,
I don't know what to say but I miss you Soo much. The memories we shared, how I always get away with most things as your little girl. How I always anticipate you coming back home cause of the goodies you will bring along. I always loved it when you come pick me up from school and how you always call my name( Adebola) anytime you want to scold me.
The morals you instilled in us as children, vigils and church programs you always made mandatory. I'm Soo glad to be your Daughter and wouldn't wish for any thing better. I love you Soo much Dad and Will forever miss you.
 Continue to rest in the Bossom of the lord till we meet again.
  Adebola

I can’t believe you are not with us again Daddy!
You were a lover of God, a cheerful giver , a selfless man, I thank God for the life you lived.
You lived an impactful life and I’m a testimony to that .
I always look forward to the praise and worship sessions during morning devotions while we were at Abuja,your favorite song then was,
‘Ope ye o, Ope ye o
Adabatubu olodumare
Ope ye o Baba’
You made me fall in love with the song,every moment spent with you back then was always great and lovely, ice cream moments, fruits moments and the likes.
I’m grateful to God that I had you as a father, continue to rest in the bossom of the Almighty till we meet to part no more.
You are forever in our hearts
Goodbye Daddy

My dear husband, my mentor, my prayer partner, my teacher, my pastor….Ha! O ma se o!
I couldn’t believe that you will go like that. I love you so much but Jesus loves you most. It’s like play that you left me.
My dear husband, it is only Jesus that can fill the vacuum you left behind. You were a prayer warrior. You spent a lot of time praying in the night. Whenever you’re praying, you loved to sing the song “Draw me nearer, nearer”. Each time you sang the song, I felt it in my soul.
You were a lover of children. You led your children in the way of The Lord. As you were growing spiritually, you did not leave your family behind. You told the children every time, to pray always. You made sure that no one dozed during prayers. You would say, “when the husband is growing spiritually, he must carry the family especially, the wife, along because if the husband falls, he’d fall to the level of the wife! Therefore, everyone must grow together”.
You were a cheerful giver. Your love was true. I learnt a lot from you. There was nothing you could not give to the work of God. You did not handle the work of God with levity.
You taught us to wake up and pray in the midnight. Midnight prayers became your habit until you didn’t have the strength again. Fasting was your food. I learnt a lot from you on spiritual exercise.
I remember the day we were going to the hospital. Semilore held you crying and she was saying “daddy, talk to me”. You waved your hand at her, not knowing that you would not come back home with us.
What I know is that you are with Jesus, resting, until when all of us and other saints will come and see Jesus.
My dear, I miss you! Three days to your departure in the hospital, you opened your eyes and looked at me. I was glad that we would be going home soon. I didn’t know it would be the last time you’d see me on earth.
I cannot put everything about you here.
Evangelism was your hobby. You hated anything inferior.
My dear, goodnight….till we meet on the Resurrection Morning and reign with Jesus.
The children and I are saying goodnight.

My father, I could not even imagine your departure in thirty years to come. How I wished it was a dream that will soon faded away. You left me when my heart is very close to you. I wish I could hear your voice and share your love again. A part of me died, when you passed. Our bond was super strong, which cannot be broken. I have no idea how I'm going to get through this on my own, you were always there for me, you shouldn't have left me and now I'm saying good bye to you. Life isn't fair. There is a certain loneliness that cannot be filled. My hero, My world, who taught me how to walk closely with God. You will always be in my heart because in there, you're still alive. God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart. One day, I'll see you again. Continue to rest in the blossom of God.

I have never met a great personality like you Dad. The memories of the good time we shared will forever remain a treasure. You are a man with a great heart of service, you get things done easily and sacrifice a lot for others. Thank you for a life well lived Dad.You are without doubt the most discerning, attentive, and knowledgeable man I have met. Full of compassion and humility, you represent the kind of person I love to be. With a contagious smile and infectious laugh, you put yourself into all you do. You lived a fulfilled life.I have never met a great father, leader like you who is patient, loving, and eager to help always. Your love for knowledge inspired me to get more education and developed myself. Having to write a tribute to you today is painful but at the same time, it allows me to further celebrate you even in death.I can’t explain how much I’d miss you. You are an inspiration to the whole world. You were full of faith, courage, and strength. We wish you farewell in your journey to eternity. You’d never be forgotten. Rest in peace, dear father.You thought me almost all I know today, having you as my father and my teacher changed my life. You taught me great life lessons like honesty, hardwork, respect for others, and confidence to mention but a few. Having to write this at your demise makes me so nervous. Thank you for impacting my life so much. I will never forget sir.Love from your loving and caring daughter
