Semper vivat et vos in cordibus vestris;
In our Hearts, you shall always live;
Tunde my beloved brother,
Words failed me in every sphere to express how and what I feel at this very moment of my life, holy scriptures pours out forth what`s racing through my heart, hence I would take solace in the words of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, his apostles and and all the angles in heaven where I firmly believed you`ve been welcomed and received as a true baptized believer in the lord Jesus Christ.
Humility is you, Gentleness is you, Kindness is you, Benevolent is you, Goodness is you, Honesty is you, Caring for others is you, Praying for others is you, Open hearted is you, Selflessness is you, which all transcends to Christ-like show of Love to those you know and did not know, all describes you.
Last time we were on the phone, your voice was goodbye-like to me, it was too soft extremely gentle, I told you, you need a break, you deserve a vacation for you`re tireless you worked so hard, you gave it your all, not knowing you`re leaving to rest for eternity. Never meant you to go away just now, not this way, not this age, not this time, however it never occurred to me you had a mission, and your mission is almost accomplished, and you did accomplished it.
You always taunt me you`re older than me and Kehinde my twin brother, despite the fact that we were born same month, same year, but three days apart. Now I believe, yes I agree, agree that you`re most senior, yes, you`re an "Egbon" not just by age, but by how very well spent your the 51 years you shared with us.
I will miss you, I`m missing you, we will miss you, I know you`re in a way better place looking down from the firmament on all those whom you so much cherished and loved that you left behind. Yes, I believe in life after, I believe as promised by our Lord Jesus Christ that we will meet again.
John 5:24 - “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life."
Tunde, you`ve ran the greatest of race and races, you came, you saw it all, you won and above all you`ve conquered the greatest of it all; the earthly body and the flesh. John 6:40 - "For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” - We shall me surely again my brother, Yes I believe.
Tunde, I at his very trying time for humanity request on your behalf that the Lord Jesus Christ Inclined thy thine ear, O Lord, unto my prayers, wherein I humbly pray him to show Thy mercy upon your gentle soul whom Thou hast commanded to pass out of this world, that Thou wouldst place Your Soul Tunde in the region of Peace and Light, and bid you be a partaker with Thy Saints in Your promised kingdom Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Adeus brother for now brother;
Loving and merciful God,
we entrust our brother to your mercy.
You loved him greatly in this life:
now that he is freed from all its cares,
give him happiness and peace for ever.
The old order has passed away:
welcome him now into paradise
where there will be no more sorrow,
no more weeping or pain,
but only peace and joy
with Jesus your Son,
and the Holy Spirit
for ever and ever.
Amen.
Tibi, Dómine, fratrem nostrum (sorórem nostram)
humíliter commendámus,
ut, quem (quam) in hac vita mortáli
imménso semper es prosecútus amóre,
nunc, a malis ómnibus liberátum (liberátam),
in réquiem íngredi iúbeas sempitérnam.
Tuam ergo cleméntiam deprecámur,
ut, quia prima iam transiérunt,
illum (illam) in paradísum tuum benígne perdúcas,
ubi neque luctus, neque clamor, neque dolor erit ultra,
sed pax et gáudium, cum Fílio tuo et Spíritu Sancto,
in sǽcula sæculórum
Amen.
Peace, you rest brother.
On behalf of the Babatunde Family.
Taiwo & Kehinde Babatunde.
