On the special occasion we would like to pay tribute to our Mother - and wish her the greatest blessing of the Almighty God.

Mothers are everything for us when we are small… For everything that we need we call Mother, to protect us from all perceived dangers; we want Mummy around us for a warm hug and a kiss of love.

Mother, you taught me, we all have the ability to keep going even when we face challenges in our lives, we can either have a positive attitude towards life, or a negative attitude, you taught us to focus on the good and keep a positive mental attitude, - as this is one of the keys to success.

We remember your prayers Mother and they have always followed me. They have clung to us all our lives and will continue to steer and guide us.

Thank you Mother for all that you have done to make our life a happier one, for showing love through kind quiet deeds, for always fulfilling our families need for guidance, sympathy, laughter, tears of unfaltering patience and help through the years for all you devotion and wonderful ways.

Happy 80th birthday we love you Mum! Your son,

Segun & Moji Oyekan

We would like to take this time and opportunity to share someone very special with you our Mother.

A woman is celebrated for the love she inspires in her family and friends. My mother is a woman whose love and generosity is unlimited.

Maami, you taught us through your words and actions, the meaning of love, honesty, hard work and making sacrifices. What seemed to us to be bitter trials turned out to be abundant blessings in disguise. You taught us to believe in the power of possibilities and believe you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.

Mummy, you are a remarkable woman. Your goodwill and tenacity has not only been an attribute that enabled your success but it also transcended through the generations of our family and facilitated all of us in many ways.

Mummy, you are our encouragement, my strength and wisdom every day. You enabled us to be able to believe and realised our dreams. You have always stood behind your children and always accepted us as the people we are. We have been truly blessed to have such a wonderful, hardworking and prayerful mother whom we can also call our friend. Thank you Mummy for everything you've ever done for me, I love and respect you very much!

Your loving children,

Remi & Kemi Olumuyiwa

Words really fail me when we try to describe the love and affection you have showered on us since our childhood. This has never clouded your demand for disciplined behaviour, thoroughness and the truth.

You are a pillar of strength, wisdom and a marbled fountain from which love and kindness spouts. All who have crossed your path have the same story to tell.

As you reach the diamond 80, we pray for many more years of bliss, even as we thank God for the years that we have enjoyed, and that have shaped our very beings.

To my truly 'one in a billion mother'. We love you on this day, and on every single day.

Your baby,

Muyiwa & Tola Oyekan

Our great Grandma is special because she is a one of a kind.

She always sees the positive side of everything. Her smile is brighter than the flowers in her garden. She always makes us feel special whenever we’re with her. She makes us laugh when we are in the grumpiest mood.

We never feel uncomfortable around her; she makes us feel so at home. Happy birthday great Grandma!

Deaconess Florence Mutajero Gbemiyi Oyekan is a most loving, caring but a forthright disciplinarian. We all grew up enjoying her compassionate love and disciplined upbringing.

Her house was and has always been the 'melting pot' for all the children. She was and still is instrumental in fostering godly and healthy close family relationships amongst the children and the family.

It was and still is a privilege to enjoy the wise counsel of her. Growing up, we were always eager to feed off her well-spring of knowledge, experience and wisdom and she never disappointed us. She is a most generous woman in all ramifications. We want her to know that we admire and appreciate her so much.We bless our Heavenly Father for a life well spent together, in spite of the challenges. We pray that God Almighty will continually make His light to shine upon you and yours, Happy 80th Birthday, I love you.
