MESSAGE OF APPRECIATION BY HON SUNDAY BAIYE
On behalf of the Baiye Family, I, **Hon. Sunday Folorunsho Baiye**, wish to express our profound and heartfelt appreciation to everyone who stood with us before, during, and after the burial of our beloved mother, Late Mrs. Ruth Ibiyemi Baiye.
Words are truly insufficient to convey the depth of our gratitude. The overwhelming show of love, prayers, support, and solidarity we received from far and near was beyond our expectations. From the moments of her transition to the final burial rites, your presence—physically, spiritually, emotionally, and materially—gave us strength and comfort.
Pages would indeed fail if we begin to mention names. However, we are sincerely grateful to all who prayed for us, attended the wake and burial ceremonies, sent messages, made phone calls, offered financial and moral support, and stood with us in one way or another. Your kindness reaffirmed the value of unity, compassion, and shared humanity.
The burial of our dear mother was truly a befitting one, marked by dignity, honour, and an outpouring of love. The massive support and goodwill shown to our family will never be taken for granted. My siblings and I remain eternally grateful and deeply humbled by this rare display of affection.
May the Almighty God, who sees all, reward every one of you abundantly, replenish your resources, grant you long life in good health, and comfort you in your own times of need.
Once again, we say thank you, and may the gentle soul of our dear mother continue to rest in perfect peace.
Signed:
Hon. Sunday Folorunsho Baiye
Local Security Adviser (LSA) to the Governor of Kogi State
