    Seeing you leave was one of the hardest moments; But, after careful reflection I feel truly privileged to have spent time with you.I will never forget how warm and welcoming you were to me. Our interactions revealed a very principled man; This was evident in the stories you shared about your experiences on research, work and faith. Those long hours sitting with you will never be forgotten.I will carry you forever in my heart.

    Dear Uncle, I remember how you would ask me how I had been doing whenever I would visit. It was never in a flippant way but in a thoughtful way; you would listen keenly to my reply and give words of advice freely. You were always generous with your attention and care. During my last visit you were still the same, receiving us in your home with so much warmth despite the fact that you had somewhere else to be and the day was turning into evening. I will miss you uncle but I know you are resting now in the bosom of the Lord.

    Dear Uncle, We’d like to say thank you. Thank you for your resolute support and kindness during sorrowful moments, Thank you for your advice and encouragement during challenging moments, Thank you for your joy and cheer during celebratory moments, Thank you for being there for us, like we were your own. It was such an honour to know you Rest peacefully. Onyaglanu Idoko On behalf of the Idokos Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; Not as the world gives Do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, Neither let it be afraid Jesus (John 14: 27)
