Lola Moore a childhood friend of the deceased said this about her: “Yomi, I still can’t believe it. I haven’t seen you in a while, but it still hurts. You will be remembered for, not just being the admirable child actress on the old hit TV programme ‘Third Eye’ or for our younger years attending ‘Our Saviour’s Church’ with our parents and siblings, but for always having a beautiful smile on your pretty face. You might be gone, but you will never be forgotten; your memory will forever live on in my heart, and in the hearts of everyone you ever graced with your smile. May the good Lord keep your soul with Him in eternal peace. Sleep on, dear. Sleep well”
