Toks,

Wow, We had not spoke to each other in years. I am very saddened to read this. I was wondering why you were so distant. I sent you a photo of my kids, Kemela & Jamuria, to your phone only to receive back that I had the wrong number., so I looked you up on google only to see this. I never gave up on our friendship. That is a testament of what kind of man you were. I didn't want to lose you. Your spirit was beautiful. I remember first meeting you at Montgomery College, Takoma Park, where we became friends. I still owe you dinner from Patriots winning the SuperBowl. There are so many unanswered questions in my mind right now, but I am grateful you are with the Lord. I am grateful for my peace of mind because now I know why our communication ended. Love you Toks! May God bless your family with peace and prosperity!

Thank you for your beautiful words about our brother. Just looking at this page today because my brother will miss my daughter’s wedding in a few days. I just came to this page and found your tribute.

We send our deep continuing sympathy to your family for the loss of Tokunbo. No words can remove the deep pain of being separated from the one that we love but may God's words at Psalm 34:18 help you with each new day as you try to cope. Your son touched the lives of many and will be sadly missed.

Toksi1, The past few days have been unreal. Still can't believe that you are no longer with us. We had a lot planned and so much to look forward to. But, who am I to question God. I take solace in the fact that you are in a better place now. I will always cherish the times we spent together and the joy and happiness you brought to those who knew you. You were such a gentle and humble soul. Heaven has definitely gained an angel. My condolence to Daddy, Mummy and the rest of the family. You will always be in my heart bro. Thanks for the memories.

Rest in Peace Tokunbo! The good Lord will console the family! I remembered you with a nostalgic feeling when you were little and stayed in Festac with the family. I always come around when I visited my Aunt who was a neighbor to the family then, You were always quiet and well-mannered, I thanked God for your life and the people you have touched! Sleep well Beloved.

Tokunbo, the baby of the family, sun re! We do not question God for we know He is almighty, our Creator, who knows the end from the beginning. He knows you and this is His appointed time. His ways are not are our ways so we grieve like the mortals we are, without understanding. Death is only a doorway to our eternal destination, home with our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Our solace is that He needs you home now hence He has called you home. Good nite Tokunbo, it is well!

Daddy, Mommy, Yetunde, Dele and Abiola, I grieve with you! The Holy Spirit, the comforter, sent for a time as this will comfort us all. Again I say it is well!

For the rest of us, do you know Jesus Christ? Is He your personal Lord and Saviour? Is He your way?
