Pastor Isaac Toluwase Ekudayo Mogaji: A man of Grace and Dignity, dedicated to the service of God and Humanity.
“Even in death, he (his works) speaks.”
Boda Tolu, as I used to call you, a man of principle seasoned in discipline and virtue.
There's everything wrong with the fact that I have to write you a tribute this soon. It is very painful to face the reality that one isn't going to see a sibling again, especially, the very person one shared unforgettable childhood experiences with, but it takes much more pain of no mean intensity to bury the dead.
You struggled alongside with your parents and siblings through the thick and thin of life in order to make it in Life. I believe you could have stayed a little longer to reap the fruits of your sweat. But God knows what He's doing. I believe so too. A man enters the world with a cry, and leaves amidst tears. Yours was no different. Men are born to die. It's been a settled matter since the beginning of time.
I remember those caring moments, both to the young and the old, your burden for the family, your kindness and strength in times of adversity, your characteristic admonitions buttressed in love. The friendship you arrayed gave you access to many.
Growing up with you have been the hardest, yet most incredible thing but I thank God for each and every day. You inspired me every step of the way, to pursue my dreams and work hard to make them a reality. You were always there to keep me away from my fears. Your wish for me and family even while on your sick bed was to relocate and get settled in the United Kingdom.
As your younger brother, I admired your hard-work, sacrifice and labour of love. You were defined at heart, resolute in business and your faith in God never wavered. You were decisive in whatever you set your mind to do and your courage gave strength to many.
God granted you sufficient integrity and intelligence to live your life with uncompromising ethics, elegance, love and dedication towards the betterment of God’s kingdom and humanity.
Dear Brother, Pastor Isaac Toluwase Ekundayo Mogaji, you faded away like the stars of the morning, losing their lights in the glorious sun--Thus you have passed from this earth and its toiling, you will ever be remembered by what you have done and those legacies you have left behind.
You helped people as you passed along, you have cheered the world with words and songs, you have shown many that they're travelling wrong, you have done your duties as Christian ought, and you have shared love's (Gospel) message like the Master Jesus taught. It is obvious that your living was not in vain.
My beloved brother, I miss you so much, but I am comforted knowing that you finished your race well and you are resting in the bosom of your maker, whom you loved and served well. You didn't retreat or surrender, you were a gallant soldier.
Adieu.
Alaba, Taiwo, Silvanus, and Christian DEPO-MOGAJI
