GrandMa as we fondly call you, you lived an exemplary life, a life full of love and kindness unto mankind and passion for God. Words still failed me as your exit still remain a big blow.
A matriarch of great repute.
If only I could make a wish that God would expressly bring to reality, it shall truly be that you live much more of a centenary.
2010: Lagos~ You admonished that I should get in touch often with my brothers..you said to me in our dialect 'Okun Kayode, E a bere ara ghin regularly o'
2013: At Ilorin, I drove with you in your car to the reception ground and we gisted at length
2015: Lagos~ You'd questioned if I've met with my senior brother, Babs ..stressing in our dialect which we oftentimes communicate with.."Kayode shey wòti rí egbon re ?"
And so loving,free minded and just you were on your quest for our unity, even until your very last moment on earth... I'd lost count.
Oh God, but why would there be death?
There has been happiness, joy and gladness in moment as the thought of you waft through.We desired that tears rolling by the reason of your demise would have kept you awake for us still but we could only reach a consolation that heaven has gained you, a rare gem, a mother indeed.
Iye mi, mo féràn re nó ko ! And I know you love me too.
It's so hard to say good bye and until we reach the distant shore where tears would have been abated.
The Lord thy God shall encapsulate your lovely children, grandchildren , inlaws,relations, friends and well wishers with HIS mighty hands of protection. They shall continually bask in the euphoria of HIS grace.
Okun Iye, Ó dìgbà.
Your Son,
Olukayode (Steve & Hermia)
