Victor, the Gentle Footprints that your Kindness left behind will Forever Remain in our Hearts!

58 years old
Born on June 21, 1956 in Lagos, Nigeria
Passed away on December 5, 2014 in London, United Kingdom

This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Victor Friday Ihezie, 58, born on June 21, 1956 and passed away on December 5, 2014. We will remember him forever. We appreciate your words of comfort so please feel free to leave your tribute for Victor on this site. Thank you and God bless you.

Mr Victor Ihezie was born in Lagos, Nigeria on the 21st of June 1956. He was the eldest of seven children. He left Nigerian shores at a young age of 18 to study in the United Kingdom where he graduated as an Engineer at the Universities of Wales and Westminster.

Victor, who proudly oversaw the construction of many landmarks in Britain, London to be precise, had a glittering 30-year career as an Engineer.

He was a man of the people and had a friendly relationship with a lot of people he came across from all walks of life. He was also revered for his fearlessness and ability to speak up for what he believed in. He had an impeccable dress sense and embraced his roots and culture. To Victor, if music was the food of life, it had to play, and boy, he had a great taste in music! He loved music: jazz, blues, rock and roll, country and folk, soul, reggae, bongo, etc. He loved to sing along, whistle and dance to the music. His collection of music was eclectic.

He was very jovial, loved football, had an inquiring mind and so he read so many books, watched documentaries and loved travelling and sightseeing in order to find answers to his inquisitive mind. He was very knowledgeable in politics and current affairs.

Victor was a great family man who truly loved and cared deeply for his family. In return he was loved by every member of his family for fostering the spirit of forgiveness and reaching out easily to people.

He is survived by:

Angela – wife
Ashley, Maxine and Oderra – Children
Levone – grandson
Pa John and Mama Regina - His elderly parents
Aloysius – Brother
Chi –Chi, Stella, Chineze, Ifechi and Kelechi – Sisters
Several nephews, nieces, cousins, aunties, uncles, cousin and in-laws.

Victor’s sudden demise has left us very traumatised and he will be sadly missed as the vacuum he left will be very difficult to fill. However, although he is not here with us, his spirit lives on and he will forever remain in our hearts!

We love you Victor and may your gentle soul rest in perfect peace.... AMEN!

4 years it is today since you made your painful exit...…. I still remember those dark and dreary days ……. It looked as if the clocks had stopped and any hope of moving on looked increasingly forlorn. However, I looked up to the mountains from where cometh my help and God sent His angels to watch over me and the children. We are doing okay and pray that you continue to rest in the Lord's bosom, Amen.

The 5th of December is a day we can never forget in our lives Victor as it was on this day exactly 3 years ago that all the lights went out. It has not been plain sailing but God in His infinite mercy has been standing guard at the cross-roads for us and pointing us in the right direction. We continue to thank Him for our existence and sustenance. May your soul continue to rest perfectly in the Lord, amen.

Brother Victor, You left too soon; Your death still baffles me as I miss your gorgeous smiles. But I thank God for having known you as a gentle, kind and lovely Bros.

I can't believe how time has passed. It's just gone over 2 and a half years. A lot has happened since then. It has not been easy but we have been coping very well and the Lord has been our strength. Your good friends have not abandoned us and many angels have been sent our way to lead us through the rough patches.

May your soul continue to rest in perfect peace, amen.

REMEMBERING YOU FONDLY ON YOUR FIRST ANNIVERSARY

Whilst you were on this side, our strong friendship didn't need daily conversations or being together at the same place, as we did in our youth. However, as long as our relationship lived in the heart, as true friends, we were never apart. No day passes when I don't think of you. Although you have become a memory, that memory is a wonderful treasure to always hold in our hearts. We miss so much and hope that we'll meet again in refreshing eternity some day! May your positive spirit keep resting in the Lord's bossom.

Oyins (Jo Dibie and Family), Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

Papa! A year today and what a year it's been my daddy! It's been tough, but deep down I feel that your strength and resilience in the face of adversity was embedded into us and we have survived, survived such a tragic loss. You are still the light of my world, I am so grateful to have had you as a father, I really was a daddy's girl! Thank you for being an amazing soul. The warmth I feel when I think of you is what keeps me going! You shall remain in my heart and that of Oderra and mummy, till kingdom come. Never forgotten daddy. Remain looking over us with your protection and guidance. Continue to sleep in the bosom of the Lord. Till we meet again.

December 5, 2015

May you have an everlasting rest and peace in God's presence. You are missed by all of us

Still making you proud out here :)

June 23, 2015

Oyins,
It doesn't take a special day
To bring you to our minds,
For days without a thought of you,
Are very hard to find
We cannot send a birthday card,
Or make a cheery Father's Day call
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.
Missing you loads!
May your gentle and kind soul continue to rest in perfect peace!

Jo & Kelechi Dibie and Family

Daddy Happy Birthday and Happy Father's Day!! Days before today approached I was dreading this day, these first big holidays without your presence. I couldn't bare the thought of not running to your side of the bed with gifts and a card singing 'happy birthday!'... Well I sang happy birthday for you. I looked at your picture and sang it loud and proud! I woke up with one of your favourite artists playing upbeat music and just felt blessed. Today we cooked, danced (even imitating your style), relived happy memories and prayed for you! Today we celebrated! We've felt your presence for sure. Oderra, Mum and I feel your spirit. Thank you for being our number 1! Our king our comfort. We love you dearly and will forever honour you and your memory! Once again, happy birthday and happy Father's Day sweetheart. Rest in peace! I love you xxxxxxxxxxxxx

This Tribute is added today being father's day and coincidentally the birthday of my deeply missed brother; "you are a brother God gave me and a friend my heart chose"( proverb).
"The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living"(Marcus Tullius Cicero). "The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?" (Edgar Allan Poe)
"Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them(George Eliot).The dead cannot cry out for justice. It is a duty of the living to do so for them"(Lois McMaster Bujold)
My Brother I miss you so so deeply. .
Happy birthday and father's day in Paradise.

Victor, it's exactly 6 months ago since you departed this world. It still looks like a dream but what can I say? A lot has happened since then but only God, the Almighty Father, knows what happened and why. God has surrounded us with His guardian angels and it has been well with us. Sleep in heavenly peace ........... Angela
