'Brother Goke' as I fondly called you. I met dad in shopping centre on 8th of November 2021 and asked after you. Then dad dropped the bombshell. My world came crashing. I cried all the way home and wept uncontrollably at home. My husband knew I had lost someone but was surprised when I told him you had been dead for close to a year. I share memories of you with him so he remembered you immediately I described you to him.I had to stop crying cos of my little daughter who joined me in weeping since she had never seen me wept that bitterly. No wonder your phone were always switched off. I was angry at you that you did not hear from me for so long and did not bother to check on me. Then I felt maybe I had wronged you because you were not picking my calls even when it rang. I sent several SMS and whatsapp message but got no reply.I never knew you had gone to be with the Lord. I have so many fond memories of you that I cherish and will never forget. You got me my first meaningful Job. You were humble to a fault.Always having a word of advice for me. You were a child of God.You cross my mind almost everyday. It's good to see here that you got married to the girl of your dreams. I was always teasing you to do so. I googled you tonight and saw this page on you. I take solace in the fact that you are with Jesus. The world is truly a battle place. Your kind is rare to come by. May God continue to comfort your lovely parents. The world lost a gem.
This is really hard to believe. You were great friend and brother. I will never forget the moment we worshipped, prayed, laugh together. I wish there was a way to bring you back but God knows best. Rest on my friend. You are greatly missed!
Egbon 'Goke, as I loved to call you! I heard of your passing today, and as hard as it is to accept, it is what is! I'm currently flooded with memories of you as my neighbor, brother and friend. Thank you for being who you were to all of us. I know you are resting with the Lord. Till we meet to part no more, ADIEU
The friendship we shared was real and pure, I cherish every moments we shared together. You lived an impactful life, never knew it could end this way. I wish we had more time towards the end. You were always a light towards the end of tunnel for me. You fought a good fight of faith. Thanks for letting me into your world. Adegoke,continue to rest in peace.
The only comfort I have is that you are resting in God's blossom. Till we meet again.
Rest in God's eternal peace Adeygoke. God Bless.
