"And it has loaded..30 years ago on 16th November 1985 we said “I
Do”. It is a day of thanks To our Heavenly Father for all those who made those
30 years doable… My late mum and dad. Chief Afolabi Silva and Dr (Mrs) Abimbola
Silva. They both tried to be fair…but mum was most times in Olus corner and Dad
leant towards mine.
Silva didn't leave anyone out of her post. Even her in-laws were
acknowledged:
"My late sisters in law mama Shomolu and mummy Ibadan. ..my late
brothers in law Papa London and Papa Fermi. ..all of them so protective of me.
God in his wisdom has called you home. Your blessing will not decrease. We miss
you all.

those many years ago…Sister Buki & Uncle Laolu Akintobi ..Bunmi Tejumola
Faith Eboigbe my warriors…Chisom Ezoke daughter sister friend… Sinmi Adesanya
supporters no matter what. Moji Olagbegi pastor in the house. Bunmi and Soji
Oyinsan besto of life you never held your punches from either of us and made
sure we made it work."
"Lola Fani-Kayode there from the beginning…taking me by the scruff
of the neck and shaking me until I found my way back to my Lord Jesus.Thank
you. Our Son’s Olusoji and Olugbenga our Jewels God bless you. May you both find
bone of your bones and in the words of my favourite hymn at the moment “Oh God
beyond all Praising…"
She concluded with: "We thank you for these 30
years. May only death do us part and may our love in all its
ramifications wax stronger. Thank you all for the good wishes and prayers. God
bless you."
