Babatunde Adelekun Memoriam



ADELEKUN PRINCE BABATUNDE ADEGBOYEGA ADELEKUN August 11, 1963March 30, 2000 The most ideal expression of love is the joining in spirit of two people whose hearts are as one. God expressed His love for us by joining your heart with not just one, but with all of us. Although it was for just a brief time, it was indeed a memorable time. A decade ago today we experienced a bitter-sweet moment. We lost you, but your spirit remains joined with us and God has shown us His mighty power by carrying each of us forward to this time. You have uniquely touched us with your love, generosity, humor and your most wonderful, smile. Your personality and your smile lives on in your daughters. So, we remember you today, knowing you are resting in peace! Love, Your wife, Gwendolyn Adelekun, Jasmine, Kala, Lyric, Family & Friends
