“Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.”
‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭4‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Obituary

Oluwabusolami (Buzz) Temiloluwa Agbaje (née Duro-Emanuel), born on 29 July 1995, sadly passed away on 27 August 2026 at the age of 31. Whilst her time with us was far too brief, Busola left an incredible and lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her, from her family to her friends and colleagues.

Busola was known for her unwavering kindness, infectious joy and vivacious spirit. She lived boldly and fearlessly, with a deep gratitude for the life God had blessed her with, embracing every moment with purpose and joy. Her appreciation for life manifested in her ever-smiling disposition and in the intentional way she loved her people — loudly, deeply and unapologetically.

She lived a life devoted to the Lord, honouring God faithfully in every aspect of her being. Her commitment to serving in church, along with the quiet yet powerful evangelism she embodied in her day-to-day life, was a beautiful reflection of her faith.

Busola studied Economics and International Relations at Lancaster University, graduating in 2016. It was also during her university years that she met Tobi, who would go on to become the love of her life and her husband. Their relationship was rooted in love, friendship, faith and a deep commitment to one another.

Busola also built a career marked by ambition, excellence and an enduring desire to make an impact. She spent several years at EY in London before continuing her career at J.P. Morgan, where she most recently served as Chief of Staff within the Employee Platforms team. Just as she did in her personal life, Busola brought energy, warmth and purpose to her work, forming meaningful relationships with the colleagues she met along the way.

Throughout her life, she remained a devoted and loving daughter to her parents, a cherished wife to Tobi, and a treasured friend to many, with each friendship carrying its own unique and special bond. Each person will miss her sorely for the light she brought into every room and into every life she touched.

We remain grateful to God for every moment of her life and every memory made. Though her time with us was far shorter than we could ever have wished, the love she gave, the joy she shared, the faith she lived and the lives she touched will endure. Her spirit lives on in all those she leaves behind.

It’s taken me so long to write this because I’ve just been in denial. I’ve been so confused. I thought we’d have time to hang out in the US together.

It’s painful to lose someone you truly care for, and it’s even more difficult knowing I can no longer experience your positivity, cheerfulness, kindness and joy in the physical. You touched everyone with your loving personality - There was no encounter with you where I didn’t leave smiling.

You’ve been in my life since I was a child and I can only thank God for the moments we shared together. It’s been a few months since we lost you, and I still reflect on wishing you were healthy and around to enjoy this chapter of your life.

Buzz you will always be missed. It’s been tough. I thank God you’re in a better place, and all my thoughts are with your family and loved ones.

Hey Busola,

What a beautiful soul you are, I can imagine everywhere you go you brought your own unique brand of happiness and joy, the same way you did it at JP. We need more people like you, not less, it's so sad, but what's comforting is all I have is an image of you dancing for joy in the presence of our Almighty creator.

I pray that the Lord gives strength to your loved ones that are still here, your impact here is indelible.

Busola,

The first day I met you, there was something so truly special about your beautiful spirit, your smile was infectious, your joy was comforting and your light was truly radiating through you.

I feel honoured to have know you, to be impacted by your light and to have shared some precious moments with you. Your smile is the last thing I remember and I will forever cherish that moment.

Sending my love and condolences to your family 🤍

Beautiful, may you rest in eternal peace, you will forever be missed. Till we meet again xx

Coming to terms with losing you has not been easy. A part of me would much rather live in denial, but I also know what that could mean. It could mean that one cold day in winter, I suddenly remember your high-pitched voice shouting, “Tochibabyyyy,” and it all comes rushing back, sending me spiralling and breaking down.

I’ve known you since I was 16 years old, and you were always able to bring out the goofy side of me in a way that very few people could. We shared so many amazing memories together.

I’ll never forget my surprise 18th birthday, when you were the first person to show up. That was you. You showed up for me, and I’m grateful that I was able to show up for you too, right until the end.

I really wish this message was a happy one. I wish I was writing about you fully recovered, and about us finally getting around to having more of those dinners we had planned. But God knows best.

Just know that I’m going to miss you so, so much. I’ll do my best to make sure that some of your positivity, your joy and your energy continue to live through me.

Thank you for all the memories, Buzz. I’ll carry them with me always.

I’ll miss you more than words can properly express. Rest well. ❤️

Buzz, what to say?

You will be soooo immensely missed! You always came into work, with a smile, with a want to have the best day and a need to ensure everyone around you was seen, cared for and the best they could be. You were truly one of the good ones! The way you carried yourself, cared for your family & friends and trusted in God is truly inspirational and something that we have all learnt from you.

I know we haven't know each other for too long but you had already made an immense impact on my life. It has been such a privilege working with you, getting to know you, becoming friends and my honor to witness you and Tobi getting married!

I will treasure all of the memories with you! Till we meet again, rest in eternal peace

You were a true light at EY. I loved working with you for the 18 months we were together and then watching you continue to grow and flourish in your career throughout EY – and continue to knock it out of the park! You brought energy, commitment, fun, warmth, kindness and joy in every interaction within EY and with your clients. Your ability to build deep and meaningful relationships at such an early stage in your career was incredible to witness.

My heart felt thoughts are with your mum, Tobi, your friends and family. The Busola I heard about last weekend through your friends, your mum and Tobi was the true Busola you bought to work – you were truly authentic. It is clear to see why you were such a special person surrounded by that enormous level of love and warmth.

Rest in peace – EY was a better place for you being in it Busola.

Oh Buzz, how do I even begin to write how much you mean to me? The privilege of working with you this year is an honour I will carry with me forever.

Our morning walks to get brekky, our lunchtime gist sessions, our afternoon walks, and our second afternoon walks (when did we ever do any work? 😂). You're the reason I haven't pulled out all my hair, and the reason coming into the office five days a week didnt make me spiral...my partner in crime.

I can't believe I won't hear your phone case rattle as you come in. Who's going to teach me about pop culture? Who am I going to rant to when work is making me mad? Who's going to be the ray of sunshine on the floor?

Honey, I will never forget you. There are phrases you've given me that I know I'll carry with me for life.

I'll never play devil's advocate again, as you always said I should only advocate for Jesus. I'll continue to be nosy on your behalf, find out all the gist, and I'll ask God to relay my messages to you.

I hope you knew how in awe i was of you, you amazing human being.

My thoughts are with your Tobi and your mum. I know you're their guardian angel now.

I'm so grateful for our time together and appreciate you more than you'll ever know.

When I miss you, I'll listen to "OOOUUU", your theme song, the Buzz song.

Till we meet again, my darling. Rest in eternal peace. 🤍

Buzz, I’m so deeply saddened by your loss. You had such a radiant light about you - a joy to be around, and there was truly never a dull moment with you.

I honestly don’t remember how we first started talking at church, but what I do remember is the bright smile that was always on your face whenever we crossed paths, greeted each other and had a mini life catch up. I’ll never forget the times we used to randomly bump into each other on the tube, which was always hilarious because neither of us ever expected to see the other and we’ll give each other the biggest wave with a bright smile on our faces. And of course our mutual love for Rick Ross and Real Housewives will always make me smile. You were always so full of joy, so kind, and so warm.

You were such a beautiful soul, and I’m grateful for the moments and memories we shared, even if I wish there could have been more.

My thoughts and prayers are with Auntie Zoe, your husband, your family, and all those who loved you. I pray that God gives them a peace that surpasses all understanding, that His love surrounds them, and that they feel His presence more than ever during this incredibly difficult time.

Rest well, Buzz. You will truly be missed. 🤍

We miss you deeply in the office and I send my thoughts and prayers to Tobi, your Mum and the rest of your family.

Dearest Busola, I've had a few days to ponder on this news and my heart has truly been downcast. You have always been such a light, kind soul and deeply observant of the people around you. We met in Esthers ministry at Church shortly after I met your lovely mother, Dr Zion who I hold very dear to my heart also. There has always been something particularly refreshing about the imprint of your Mother’s charm and grace that you embodied so freely in your essence also.

Although we were never particularly close, you have always been a familiar memorable face amongst the community of women in our London circles and one I was always pleased to bump into and chat with.

Sitting in full white attire at the Service of Songs at JH drew me to tears but also consolation that you are dwelling, firmly placed at the right hand of the Father - peacefully and at rest.

You will be dearly missed beautiful soul. Thank you for the sweet aroma, fragrance and presence that you left for us here on this earth. I pray we continue your legacy here till we meet again. You will always be remembered.

Sigh Busola… I’m just still in a state of shock.

I’ve been struggling with how to come on here to express how hurt I am by this news and how sad I am knowing how hard Tobi and your family have to cope without you in their lives.

I met you through Tobi during business school but even before we met, I was already one of your greatest fans. Tobi orchestrated his whole life around being near you and I just remember thinking wow you must be such an amazing person because from the time I met Tobi, he kept going on and on about his girlfriend in London. So it was no surprise when he did the semester abroad just to be closer to you.

When we finally met online it was almost like we had been friends this entire time. Your warmth, your laughter, your kindness- I mean I remember when we were talking about real housewives and you gave me your login and password because I didn’t have the app to watch. I remember you had Jesus in the details and I remember thinking “ayeeee a fellow Jesus girl like me” lol. Silly fun memories.

Fast forward to your traditional wedding. You not only looked regal but you were the life of the party - I saw the way you and Tobi looked at each other and how your personalities complimented each other so well. I remember in one of the videos I have, you literally snatched the mic and starting rapping “talking the hardest” and I saw as Tobi behind literally knew no lyrics - it was so funny but so perfect.

Sigh I am shedding tears as I write this. I pray for strength for Tobi and your family and friends. I pray your life continues to impact us to love stronger and hold steadfast to Jesus.

We don’t know why but we do know that we have God who is close to the brokenhearted and knows how to hold us through grief. It is well

Busola,

What a beautiful ray of sunshine you were.

I'm honored I got the opportunity to know you when Tobi was in business school. You were such a joy to be around and made the effort to build an individual relationship with each and every one of us. We bonded over our love of reality TV and all the drama from Real Housewives.

I was looking forward to you moving to Chicago. I wish we'd had the chance to see Kirk Franklin, Wicked, or The Nutcracker again and make it the holiday tradition we planned.

You are an incredible woman, and I'll always treasure the glimpses you gave us of your love for Tobi including the amazing 30th birthday surprise you pulled off for him. Thank you for including us in all your big moments. The thoughtfulness and care you showed him throughout was inspiring, and he couldn't have asked for a better partner.

Your warmth, your love for God, and the love you gave others was admirable. It was in the way you showed up for people, helping Njay pack up her apartment, coming to my dad's remembrance, sending Tobi back with Maltesers every single time because I once mentioned in passing that I loved them. Who else is that thoughtful, that kind, that loving?

We will miss you so much, Busola. It's hard to even comprehend this loss, and my heart goes out to your mom, to Tobi your beloved husband, to your friends, and to all your family.

We know you're watching over us. Till we meet again.

Dear Busola,

I met you first through a mutual friend and then through your husband Tobi.

You were always the kindest, warmest person and your love for your friends and Tobi stood out everytime we interacted. You were someone who cared deeply for the people around you and such an empathetic person. You are very deeply loved by so many people

You had the brightest smile always ready to meet new people with a smile and warmth that is rare today.

I pray for strength and comfort for your loved ones and family, I will cherish the memories I got to have with you and pray that you rest in the arms of the Almighty in perfect peace.

While you aren’t here with us in person your spirit lives on through the joy you gave us, all the mutual love you share with your husband family and friends, and the way you have made us all better people.

Lots of love

My dearest Buzz,

It is truly heartbreaking and so disheartening to hear that someone as kind, caring, loving, and full of happiness as you has gone so soon.

I will always remember your beautiful and contagious smile, the joy you carried, and the warmth you brought to everyone around you. Knowing you was never a mistake; it was a blessing, and I will forever cherish the memories of you.

Your pretty smile will always remain in my heart. You may be gone from our sight, but you will never be forgotten.

Rest peacefully, my dearest Buzz Until we meet again.

Dear Busola's loved ones,

Busola and I crossed paths over the years at EY. Whenever I met with her I always felt better after having been in her presence. She was a bubbly character, a passionate individual for championing equity and was just an amazing person overall.

I am deeply shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. My prayers are with you all.

May Allah SWT (God) grant you all ease during this difficult time.

Busola, our Tobi’s baby, as I’ll always tease you. It still feels unreal writing this. The finality of it is so hard to take in.

A pure and happy soul — that’s how John and I will always remember you. Gosh, Busola, you loved so deeply, and it showed in your love for Tobi, your mum, your friends, and your people. Your soft-spoken voice, and then that unmistakable laughter. You always knew Busola was around when you heard her laugh before you even saw her in the room.

You reignited my love for Kirk Franklin and Mary Mary, and I’ll always smile thinking about your signature Busola dance!

Your faith and love for God shone through so naturally. There was such a beautiful grace to the way you lived and loved. And there was so much life still being planned and looked forward to. I was already telling Tobi I’d found a house in Dallas next to JP Morgan for you two, fully on my campaign to convince you that Dallas could be just as great as Chicago or NYC (in this phase) lol. I wish we’d had the chance to make good on all those plans.

John and I miss you. Your little nieces, who never got the chance to meet you, will know about you. Thank you for all the prayers, the love and the joy you gave so freely.

We pray especially for your mum and Tobi, the two people who held such a precious place in your heart. May God hold them close, steady their hearts, and carry them through the days ahead. May they always be surrounded by the love you gave them so fully, and may the life you shared with them remain a source of comfort and strength.

Thank you, Busola, for a life so full of love, faith, kindness and fun. For the laughter, the dancing, the prayers, and simply for being you.

We miss you deeply and love you so much.

Rest well, my sis.

Busola, I can’t believe I’m actually writing this and you’re not here anymore. Every time I saw you, you radiated such an amazing energy and so much love. You were such a kind soul.

I’ll always remember the time you had us over and how much fun we had together. I’m so sorry your time here was cut so short, but you’ll continue to live on in all of our memories. ❤️

Rest in peace, my love. Until we meet again. ❤️

Your kindness, warm spirit, and willingness to serve others left a lasting impression on everyone who had the opportunity to know you. You brought joy wherever you went and were always ready to offer encouragement and a helping hand.

Though your passing has left a deep sense of loss, we are grateful for the memories, friendships, and impact you leave behind. We take comfort in knowing that you are at peace in the presence of the Lord Jesus you faithfully loved.

You will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.

Sweet Busola, I’m so heartbroken at your loss, you were always so full of life, kind, funny and were never afraid to dance your heart out.

We first met in church at Jesus House and we built a wonderful church family, and more recently became fellow members of the incredible Gorgeous Girls Bible study.

My fondest memory with you was your 18th birthday, celebrating at Cafe de Paris and then having an incredible all white party brunch on a rooftop. That was the day I learnt how big your heart was, you welcomed me in, invited me to sleepover at your house for multiple days when we only just started becoming friends, and took me in like a sister. Since then anytime I saw you, you were always smiling, dancing and gave the best and biggest hugs. I feel so blessed to have danced the night away with you in Nigeria in January and got to spend time with you at a wedding in May.

I will always remember your smile, love and anytime I hear a Rick Ross song or drink a margarita I will think of you.

I am sending your husband Tobi, Aunty Zion, your family and friends all my love, and praying God strengthens and comforts you all. May you rest in everlasting peace, you will be deeply missed but forever remembered greatly!

Busola, it is hard to accept what has happened and though you are no longer here, I am at least grateful to know you are in a better place with our Lord.
You were always so joyous and kindhearted. I remember when I last saw you before your wedding and we were speaking about how excited we were to go to Lagos for your wedding and how pretty your aso ebi was. The joy and smile on your face was infectious. You were truly a beautiful person inside and out. I will always remember your beautiful smile and your sweet, caring nature.
My deepest condolences to aunty Zoe, Tobi and the entire family and friends.
You will be missed but never forgotten, Buzz x

I met Busola during Covid times at a friend’s birthday. My friend had been talking about her all along and so it was nice to finally put a face to name. From the first encounter, it was clear Busola was a ball of energy, so warm and loving. We went on seeing each other consistently at our mutual’s events, planning bridal showers and performing bridemaids duties together. It was clear that Busola loved and loved large. She had such a big heart for the people around her and was always willing to go the extra mile for her loved ones. We’d catch up about life, our careers, talk about our industry, wedding planning and so on. Busola always had a positive, ‘glass half full’ outlook and attitude towards life.
She was also the life of the party, bringing joy and smiles wherever she went.

You’ll continue to be remembered and live in our hearts forever Busola.

Rest well Sweet Sis,
Till we meet again 🤍

Busola, Wow, I actually can’t believe I’m writing this.

I’m so grateful to God for the heart you had. When we met over 20 years ago, when we joined Haileybury, we instantly connected over being among the very few Black people in the school. Our mums became fast friends, and so did we. You and Aunty Zion welcomed me into your home for sleepovers on weekends, and you always stood by me and showed me kindness, even when others didn’t. I will always be grateful for the kindness you showed me during my school years, and I’m so glad I was able to tell you just how much your friendship meant to me.

You were truly one of a kind. Even though we didn’t always remain the closest as life took us in different directions, I’m grateful that we stayed friends, checking in on each other and going for brunches where we could catch up on life for hours. Your jovial, fun-loving nature was infectious - a testament to your heart for your people, your zest for life and the way you lived your life with Christ at the centre.

Busola, I’ll cherish all the moments and memories we shared, from doing dance classes together as kids and teenagers to brunches as adults, and every moment in between.

My heart and prayers go out to all of your nearest and dearest, especially Aunty Zion, Tobi and your family.

I love you. May you rest in perfect peace, Busola. Gone far too soon, but your memory will certainly live on 🤍

Busola, everytime we bumped into each other in the church bathrooms it was always exchanges of laughter and sighing at adulthood. It was never a dull moment when you were around. You were so loved and I know this will be hard for many. My heart will always be praying for your mum and your husband.
May your soul rest in perfect peace. Xx

My dearest Busola,
Baby girl like Buzz, I am so happy that God blessed us with the gift of you here on earth. I remember when I first joined Haileybury in August 2008, you and Tani took me - a freshie who barely spoke English - right under your wing like a sister. We really lived through so many funny memories: from that time where Aunty Zion came to pick Nonye and I up to join you both for dinner but then midway through our housemistress switched and asked us to come back; to growing up and doing big girl brunches; to Lagos and one of the greatest days of your life in March… we praise God. You were truly an angel, one of the most kind hearted, funny people; and I’m sure that as you’re resting in heaven, God has congratulated you as His faithful servant. You’ll forever be in our hearts and missed. I love you, rest in perfect peace lovely ❤️

Busola and I met in the most random way, on a love island group chat in 2017. We got talking about love and hip hop and then housewives and it was done. Our friendship began, Busola was fun, smart, and had charisma like no one I knew. She was such a light and you could see the hand of God on her life. When we finally took our friendship out of WhatsApp and met up, we laughed, talked and time flew by. After every-time we saw each other we would always say, we never even got pictures! This was true because we spent the whole time talking and laughing. Busola had a way of making you feel comfortable and safe when you were with her.

Busola is so so special to me. I’m so grateful I got to witness her love with Tobi and see her marry her best friend.

Thank you for being an amazing friend and I am so blessed and grateful we got to cross paths.

Rest well my beautiful friend.

My older sister always referred to Busola as one of her little sisters - I was so glad to finally meet her when she came to Spain for my sister’s wedding. She came by herself and integrated so well with our family and friends without a hitch. The consensus about Busola was unanimous - simply a very sweet, pleasant and kind person with a constant smile on her face.

My prayers are with Busola’s family, friends and all of those who loved her.

Rest well sweet Busola x

I am in shock, this is very sad news and my heart goes out to Busola's closest friends and family.
I knew her as a wonderfully positive, creative and courageous colleague who always had time to support others and was someone you had to have on your team - she was that good.
It has been a privilege to have known her and enjoyed travelling on the same journey together.
Rest in peace.

In 2019, I approached Busola, to be one of my speakers for an event I did for new grads. She was incredibly open and honest. Her laughter, wide smile and ability to reference Rick Ross in conversations, always made me laugh. Busola’s smile made everyone smile. Her iconic dance moves were second to none. I am grateful I was able to see her shine and glow at her trad wedding. Such a babe. I’ll remember her joy, her kindness to support others and just what a cool babe she was. My heart is deeply saddened by her not being here anymore. I know she is truly in a better place. But it still hurts. Truly my thoughts and prayers are with her family and loved ones. Rest well Buzz xxx

I met Buzz on our entrants exam day at Haileybury over 20 years ago. I was so nervous, my desk was right next to hers and she instantly reached out and started talking to me. Buzz and her lovely Mum, Zoe, put me at such ease and were so kind and I’ll never forget it.

Buzz was always so full of life, happy and kind. She was such a special friend to me and during our school years.

I met Buzz 20 years ago, on our very first day at Haileybury, when we shared a room. From the moment I met her, I knew she was someone very special, and over the years we always stayed wonderful friends.

We shared so many happy times and made so many memories that I will treasure forever. Seeing Buzz find happiness with Tobi was so special, and I feel incredibly lucky that I got to be there to celebrate their wedding day.

As always, Buzz looked absolutely beautiful, and it was such a wonderful day filled with so much love and happiness.

I will miss you more than words can say, Buzz. I will miss the messages and voice notes, and our dinners where we could sit and talk for hours about absolutely everything.

Thank you for being the most incredible friend. I feel so lucky to have known you.

My heart goes out to Buzz’s wonderful mum, Tobi and all the families.

Rest in peace, Buzz. My very special friend, forever❤️

Busola,

Thank you for being you, warm, bubbly, and always smiling.

I still remember the first day Tobi introduced you. Somehow, it felt like we had known you for much longer. You had a way of making people feel comfortable, and always had the right words. I will never forget how genuinely appreciative you were of the love and care we showed Tobi on his 30th, and, of course, your very specific plan to make sure the DJ at my wedding played some old-school R&B (Joe and the others). That little detail still makes me smile.

It is the reason I was looking forward to seeing you in Chicago and finally getting the chance to raise a glass and celebrate the beautiful union you and Tobi were creating. It’s difficult to accept that moment will never come.

I am grateful that I got to witness the love you and Tobi shared and, in my own small way, get to know and experience the beautiful person you were.

We will miss you, Busola. But we will also remember your smile, your warmth, your words, and the love you shared so freely. Those memories will stay with us, always.

Praying for Tobi and your mum ❤️

Dear Busola, for more than eight years, I had the privilege of working with you. For much of that time as your counsellor. Somewhere along the way, those roles became less important than the friendship that grew between us.

We spent many hours talking about work, about life, family and the things that mattered and sometimes the things that didn’t. I will always be grateful for those conversations, for your trust, your warmth and the many memories they created.

There are some people who leave a lasting mark on our lives simply through the time we spend with them. You were one of those people and I will remember those hours of conversation with great fondness.

May the earth rest gently beneath you
May the wind carry you softly on your journey
May the light guide you way home
And may you find peace you always knew awaited you.

Those of us who remain will carry a little of you with us.

Rest peacefully, dearest Busola.

It was a privilege to have shared part of your journey.

2019 I was introduced to Busola by a mutual friend little did I know it was in that moment I gained a new little sister who I grew to love. The sweetest, kindest soul, vivacious and funny! Truly beautiful inside and out, getting to know you these last 7 years while short- I saw that bright light in you so many speak of. I am heartbroken, doesn't feel real at all.

I will miss you.
Praying for Tobi and mum that the Holy Spirit will comfort them.

Sleep well beautiful, until we meet again at the feet of the master. ❤️❤️❤️

Busola, I am shocked and saddened by this news. It was a privilege working with you and sharing some great conversations during our time on the BT project at EY. You were one of a kind. Everyone loved your spirit, sense of humor, professionalism, and entrepreneurial drive. I remember with a chuckle you telling me about your Instagram account dedicated to spicy margaritas. I'm sure you'll be enjoying a few spicy margs up there, looking after us all.

Busola, what a joy you were to be around! I cherished you not only as a colleague and a friend, but most importantly as a sister in Christ. You truly thrived in your EY career and were a shining example of black excellence. I am so grateful for all the moments we shared. Every time we caught up, you brightened my day and I always left feeling uplifted. I pray that God's presence is especially close to Tobi and your mum during this incredibly difficult time. It feels unbelievable, but I thank God for the joy, laughter and precious memories we shared.

Life is a gift, and you were truly a gift to this world.

Rest in peace Busola x

Tribute to a beautiful Soul

This has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to do, and I’m still in shock. I have so many questions, and so much longing.

You loved fiercely, Buzz.
You had your own beautiful way of filling every room with your presence.
You wore your smile like a gift from God.
And you made me feel like a second mum even though you had the most amazing mum- what an honor that was.

Your warm, big heart touched everyone who knew you.
That’s why this goodbye hurts so deeply.

I don’t understand why you had to go so soon.
But I do know this: _“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted.”_ — Psalm 34:18
And I trust that you are safe in His arms now.

May God Almighty comfort your darling mum, your dearest husband and all your family and friends whom you have left behind.
Rest in peace, my dear.
You will always have a place in my heart, my darling.

There are no words… only tears and a heavy heart. I am deeply, deeply sorry. Busola was a precious daughter. May God give you strength, comfort and carry you through this unimaginable season. May her memory remain forever in our hearts. 🕊️❤️

I’m so shocked and saddened hearing this news about Buzz, and my thoughts and prayers are with all of Buzz’s loved ones. I knew Buzz since Lower School at Haileybury, and I remember a full of life, happy and funny young girl who made everyone smile and laugh around her. Just the other day, I was driving in my car and Ice Box by Omarion came on and I instantly had flash backs of Buzz, how much she adored that song, and the personalised dance moves she made and danced out for us all. I instantly felt such nostalgia from that one song. That’s how I’ll always remember Buzz. Sending all my love to her husband, her family and all her loved ones
