As far back as the year 1999 or there about I remember you teaching me about the phrase ceteres paribus meaning all things being equal. I don't remember the rest of the conversation but one thing stood out, I always admired your intelligence and kindness. You will forever be in our hearts.
I worked with Ola in Columbus. He was such a kind and wonderful person to be around and a dedicated worker. He was so proud of his family and loved to tell us about them. I will be sending warm thoughts and prayers for his beautiful boys. I am so sorry for this loss for the family.

Dear Ọlatunbọsun

Thank you for your service.

Your demise on Thanksgiving Day was a great shock to me and my household. It is tough to digest that you are gone. It is well with us all.

 “ O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” ‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭55‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Good night. Rest in peace, Folushọ, until we meet again

Olatunbosun, I am speechless. Words fail me. Olatunbosun is an epitome of a lover of nature. I learned what it meant to love swimming, to adore fishing and to savor art. He made me believe in myself and strengthened my hope in a brighter tomorrow. Every moment we spoke was filled with lessons about life, a country or one thing or the other.  I always learned something, you were just like an encyclopedia. You were so knowledgeable, a reader and a writer and your smile warmed my heart.  For the first time, my words actually fail me.  It took me so long to write this as I processed great memories. I lost sleep upon the news of your demise.  You have definitely left a gap which only memories and sweet memories can fill. Ben and Henry, my thoughts and prayers are always with you. Olatunbosun, you will be missed greatly. Rest on and peacefully my friend.

I was [ how you felt ] when I heard the news of Olatunbosun's passing.

I am speechless and cannot fathom it's Tunbosun Foluso "Omo Leigh"!!!This is so SAD and a shell shock!!!May God the only comforter, comfort the entire family. Tunbosun, I find it difficult to say may your gentle soul rest in perfect peace but will rather say "Sleep on in the Bosom of the Lord". I pray God in His infinite mercy will grant the entire family the fortitude to bear this Great loss and May God make you and Tania a Guardian Angel to Benjamin and Henry.There are no Goodbye for us, you will always be ever green in my heart and be remembered always Olatunbosun Foluso Leigh.Once again continue to Sleep on in the bosom of the Lord.GREAT IFE celebrates you!!You will be GREATLY missed.

On Behalf of the OGUNBAJOS.

I was so sorry to hear about Uncle Tunbosun's passing. He was such a vibrant and caring person. I remember sharing lots of laughs with him, and I can see his spirit live on in his children. My heart goes out to the Leigh’s, and my thoughts are with them during this difficult time. ❤️

Tunbosun, I was still waiting for your call as promised when I had about your passing on to eternity, OMG my heart bled. This is unexpected goodby my friend, rest in the bosom of our Lord until the that resurrection morning when we meet again, may the good lord keep your soul my dear. 
Tunbosun ,,to say I will not see u again, I still find it hard to believe, the last time I saw you was like 26yrs ago, though we chatted every now and then, I guess there  was a lot u kept to yourself, I was hoping to see you soon, but I guess that was not ment to be ,, I’m gonna miss you men!! I know you most have met Tania by now and you are happy. We will always love you , till we meet again. Godspeed my friend 

Tunbọsun, farewell.  Gone too soon, however, our maker knows best and we cannot question Him. May The Lord of Peace receive you home. I pray for comfort for the entire family and the rest of the people you touched during your short stay on earth.  While we became a family at Yoruba Club 21 in Columbus, Ohio, we saw a glimpse of the potentials you possessed; Oh, how I wish we saw them all. This world is not home, heaven is; until we meet again, Rest In PEACE.

 Tunbosun, this is very hard for us to do, as we never expected you to leave us so soon. You were a vibrant young man that was full of life. God knows best is all we can say, but we'll surely miss you.

On this note, we'll leave you with this Poem by Kelly Roper

Not Ready to Let You Go:

I wish that I could tell you

I'm not ready to let you go. (Because I'm a Mother)

But you've already departed,

And my heart is feeling so low.

I miss that little twinkle

That used to light up your eyes.

And I miss the sound of your voice,

Your laughter and your sighs.

But most of all I miss

The way you made me feel,

Like nothing could ever harm me because

Your love was so strong and real.

There are others here who miss you,

And they've gathered here today.

Your life touched so many people,

Who became your friends along the way.

They want you to know they love you, too.

And they're filled with sadness and grief.

No one really wants to say goodbye,

So we'll just wish you eternal peace.
