Recuerdos

GOODBYE DAD It's never the right time To say goodbye. I will miss you, Dad, And here is why. You taught me so much: To show no fear, To always have fun, And face the day with cheer. You were always so able, So fast and so strong. In your little girl's eyes You could do no wrong. You would always listen, And you never pried. You were the arms around me When I cried. You never looked for praises, And you were never one to boast. You were always there For those you loved the most. You worked so hard, And those strong working hands Led me through life And helped me understand That life can be hard, And tough, and sad, But through it all I had my Dad. And because of you, I understood That life was actually Pretty good. I believe in you And will follow your path, And when things go wrong, I'll look back and laugh. I hope you can hear me So I can let you know That you were and will forever Be my superhero. So yes, today I am full of sorrow, But I will smile a little more With each tomorrow. So please, Dad, go Be at rest And know to me You were always the best. I love you so much and miss you every day!

TRIBUTE TO OUR BELOVED DADDY IN ILE-AMULE I thank God for this unique privilege of writing a tribute with respect to my late Daddy in Ile- Amule, our dear Engineer Reverend S.O. Foye, a man of peace and an epitome of love and kindness, a doting husband to his late wife and a caring father to his children, both biological and non- biological. I first met Daddy Foye in 1977 in Jebba when my then fiancée, Dr. Bisi Adedayo was taking me round to meet his family members in Kwara and Lagos States. He and his wife welcomed me warmly and made me feel at home during my first and subsequent visits. He was so fond of my husband, whom he called Debisi, that he undertook the search for land and documentation of structural designs of our first built hospital project at Jebba and wanted us to remain close to him. Anytime I visited him in OmuAran during my brief stay at the Landmark University, he welcomed me with smiles and never forgot to request information from me by asking "Debisi nko". I also admired his love for God and service in the household of faith till the end of his life. Adeu our dear Daddy till we meet on the resurrection morning. Oluranti Adedayo, Aya Dr. Adebisi Adedayo

Tribute to a father indeed From Pst (Mrs) Ibikemi Ojapa In Daddy and Mummy Foye I found a father and mother when marriage took me to Jebba. Our children found grandparents and aunties and uncles. We still have pictures of Jemima on daddy lap, some with head swimming in daddy's cap and her legs dragging mummy's shoes. Daddy devotion to God is palpable. The family altar is a must for all. I witnessed this the few times I stayed with the family. Daddy involvement in the Christian community was exemplary. Daddy was disciplined when it comes to his diets. He practiced healthy lifestyle. No wonder, with his trust in God, he lived long and healthy. Daddy was generous to the core. The Foye's house is a place many were welcomed with warmth. I remember the feasting every December. Wow! There's always lots to eat and drink for the plenty people that turned up. Sammy Motel was almost always given out for free for visiting missionaries and Christian programmes Daddy released his pick-up vehicle with Sunday Olatunde (Jemima's small daddy) on the wheel to carry the Ojapas with all our belongings to Lagos when we relocated. What a great sacrifice. Daddy called me intermittently after my husband demise to ask after my wellbeing. He will always say " Mo ni kii bere alafia e ni". A lovely father indeed! Your departure is painful but we take solace in the truth that you're in a better place and you left a great legacy. Sleep on in the bosom of Jesus. Pst (Mrs) Ibikemi Ojapa

A tribute to (Baba Kemi ) Ven.Engr.Samuel Olatunji Foye O death where is your sting? You have fought a good fight. You lived a fulfilled life. Your departure was very painful and has left a big vacuum that will be difficult to fill because, both of you have finally left me. Thanks a lot, I am very appreciative of the care and love you and your spouse (my sister) showed to me and my family. To the glory of God you made me what I am today. You touched many lives positively. You were a Christian who exhibited unshakeable faith till your last moments. A cheerful giver and lover of God's works and the workers in His vineyard. I pray that the Almighty God would take good care of your children, grandchildren and relatives. Adieu Daddy,Adieu Baba Kemi, Adieu my sister's spouse and Adieu Afinju Onigbagbo. Esther O. Adekeye

TRIBUTE TO MY LATE UNCLE,REV S.O.FOYE From Dr. Samson Adebisi Adedayo I have known my uncle and big brother right from my primary school days when we used to live together in different apartments in Ile-Amule Compound, Omu-Aran, KWARA State. I recall that he was caring, loving and hardly enforced disciplinary measures on we younger ones in the compound but rather, he was fond of admonishing and mentoring us on issues of life. I was so endeared to him that I sometimes spent my holidays with him at Zaria when he was a bachelor working with NIGERIA Railway Corporation( NRC) in those good old days. On his return from England to Jebba with his wife and young children, I derived pleasure in visiting them frequently and enjoying the hospitality of his dear wife, late Mama Kemi at Jebba Paper Mills Staff Quarters. I was so proud of him as a family member that he was one of the first family members I introduced my wife, Ranti to during our courtship Brother Latunji was very accommodating,kind and good to family members. He was noted for being interested in promoting love and unity in Ile Amule and the family in general. He gave me a lot of moral and financial support during my wedding in Lagos in 1976 and his house was a comfortable haven as transit place for my young family anytime we travelled to the northern part of the country where we lived then. He also trained and accommodated many family members,with the support of his late wife. And was noted for being a problem solver in the family. We rejoiced when the he and his family surrendered to Jesus and were surprised when he went to train as a Minister of God at an advanced age. and served meritoriously in the Lord's vineyard till old age. Adieu daddy Foye, We shall miss his ever cheerful and smiling disposition

Tribute From: Rev Canon Oluchukwu Daniel Afobude To God The Glory for the Great Things He has done. What can I say, I am short of words. When I was traveling home I told you, though your reactions to me on that faithful day wasn't as it used to be. At home I called but Aunty Yemi told me that you were eating and I asked her to allow you to eat: only for brother Sunday to call me and said " Rev Oluchi, Daddy has passed on." I miss you, you are the first person that I see in the journey of life who prepare to attend Sunday Service on Saturday. By Saturday you have envelope your Tithe and Offerings waiting for Sunday to come. I also learnt from you that when we give to God we are only doing ourselves good and not God. I learnt alot from you Baba. I will always miss you but your words of encouragement, advise and prayers are always with me. My whole family misses you. Your distance son. Rev Can. Oluchukwu Daniel Afobude

Daady Jebba, that is the name I remember you by, and you were a Daddy indeed. It was 1985 and you picked us from Ilorin to Jebba for the vacation. Even though I was small, I still remember the experience so vividly. You took us to so many places. You were cheerful, and when I saw you a few years ago in Omu Aran, you were still as cheerful as back then, and you remembered and called me by my name. You loved your children, and we were many. Rest in Peace.
