Papa, I’m so thankful that I got to know you. The lessons you taught me have been a foundational part in who I am today. You’ve always been a person I look up to, admiring the way you live by your words. You taught me the importance of loving and I don’t know anyone as sweet, calm and caring as you are. You didn’t just preach those words, you lived it. I’ve always looked up to you and the way you cared for every member of the family. How you always chose to see the good in people and never faulted anyone. I will always remember looking forward to staying with you and grandma for the weekends, and how much you prayed for us. Wherever I go in this life, I know your prayers are still protecting me. You’ve been such a huge inspiration for me. In your actions and your faith. I’m so glad I got to know you in this lifetime.
“He taught me love.”
Faithful Olarinde
