Celebrating my brothers life and keeping his spirit alive forevermissed/simoniekunola Hmm Omooba Simeon Alabi Ekunola, Eight (8) years ago today that you left us was one of the saddest days of my life. My only brother at the age of 34 was tragically killed in a fatal accident. Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday that we met in Kumoye street, just a day to your sudden death, where you took me around to show to people as your blood brother, we talk a lot about family matters, our mother’s death and preparation for the finally burial and way forward in life, we really enjoying each other’s company. Not one day goes by that I don’t think about him or recount some of the special memories that we had growing up through the years. Brother Simeon was a tough, brave, fearless, and amazing friend and brother to me, a wonderful husband, father, son, uncle …. He cared deeply about people and he had a very generous heart. Your death was a shocking and sad one because you died exactly 7months after the death of our loving mum. The pain that I felt for your 3 kids, my father, and for the rest of our family was something I had never experienced before. I’m thankful to God today that Bose your first daughter is doing fine with her tertiary education, Bisola also is doing wonderful in all her way, and Samson your only Son is now a big boy an Army of Salvation in the eternal order, I know this is a dream comes through for you and my mum, I could remember vividly that Myself, you and Samson were to be in Church in a unique colour with our new army of salvation uniform before the death took you off before the planned Sunday…. It is well.. In memory of my brother, I am committed to daily being a more compassionate person – to reach out to those who are hurting, to stand up for what I know to be right, to not be afraid to try new things or go after the dreams that God has placed in my heart. After all, He has promised to be with me and guide me in all things, and with that promise, I know that I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. (Phillipians 4:13) Saying good-bye to my brother in this world was not easy; never take for granted those you love. Never be afraid to say those words “I love you,” while you have the chance. Adieu Simoni, Omo Alaagba, Omooba dimeji apakan mo, Omo Kuudu legbe Agbon. I miss you so much now that I needed you most, but God knows best…. RIPP esimo malaika, eje-oto- Baba Bose….
