On September 28, 2009, my dad quietly left me behind to be with the Lord. I took comfort in my mum. An angel in flesh.
No one ever had a bad word to say about her. Stern and born a headmistress, but she had love thoroughly coursing through her veins, dishing help left, right, and center.
She ate through books like a proper bookworm. Always working. Super inquisitive.
God felt we have had it too good. Maybe we were getting too comfortable to think she was mortal like us. He suddenly and forcibly reminded us that she’s more of His than of us.
So on March 15, 2012, God took my mother away. Never for me to see her again.
Never to share a moment with her again.
I’m sad. Cranky. But yet grateful for the life she led.
When I grow up, I want to be like her.
Sleep well. DT Olowe.
From 6, then 5. And all the other numbers you can think of.

She has fought the good fight and has gone to rest. Painful and very sad though but take solace in the fact that she is in a better place. My condolence brother….God be wit ur and the family she left behind.
Death is inevitable, we will all pay the price one day but when,where and how no one knows. May our works speak well of us after we have gone. Sure her good works are speaking for her even before her death. May God grant her eternal rest and I pray to God to comfort you all. It is well.
Just added her on FB not long ago,so so sad,but am sure she is in a better place now. i hope everybody will find comfort in that
infact mummy olowe is a good mother, i can not forget her good deeds especially her words of encouragement that she always lavish on me everymonth. Mummy may your gentle soul rest in perfect peace. We are all missing you here on earth.
‘Didun ni iranti Olododo’, that is true of mummy. Let’s live our life too, so that it can be true of us…accept my condolence Bro.

Did not meet her in person, but heard so much about her. The love she gives, has to be that of an angel. Her good deeds lives on, she died a worthy example.
Hey… May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace. May the Lord Almighty feel d gap with mercy n love.
Heard a lot about your Mom. And the good examples left on the two daughters I have met here in Ireland who are so good and full of respect. They both adored her. God takes the best .May the soul of such a Sweet MOTHER rest in peace.
The way you always ask after my mum tells me how much you loved yours.
“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal”
Adedeji, l know God almighty will heal every heartache that comes with the passing away of your loving Mum. Sweet memories of her will keep you going. It is well.
“O death where is thy sting o grave where is thy victory”
Gone to rest in the bossom of her maker after fighting the good fight of faith.
Fortitude to bear the loss we pray oh Lord.
May her gentle soul rest in peace. Amen. May Almighty God keep you and watch over you and your family. You shall have limitless favours from today onwards and so shall it be. In Jesus Name. Amen
