In loving memory of Diane Olufunmilayo Modupe Amisu (Nee Onaderu) who sadly passed away on 19th April 2024. Diane was a much loved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunty and friend. She was born in London, UK on 5th March 1970 to the Late Mr & Mrs Onaderu who doted on her and was the younger sister and only sibling to Femi Onaderu. She left the UK to return to Nigeria with her family in 1976. She finished her primary school at Maryland Convent Primary School. Between 1980 and 1985 She went to Immaculate Heart Comprehensive Secondary School where she met her husband Adekunle. She obtained her OND from Ogun State Polytechnic Nigeria in 1989. She moved back to the UK in 1990 where she reunited with the love of her life Adekunle. They got married in 1991. Their marriage was blessed with three children (Tobi, Segun and Tomi), son in law (Tolu Atewogboye) and a granddaughter (Keziah-Grace). Diane gave her life to God in 1990 and attended the London Riverside Church Dagenham with her family from 2012 until she passed away. She was a passionate believer in living for christ and was committed to being a practical demonstration of the gospel everywhere she went to. She worked with PwC (1997 - 2018) and Gateway Property Management (2018 - 2024) in Account Payable roles. She was also a Director in the family businesses. Despite her full time employment, Diane was a selfless and devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She also found time to volunteer at the various schools her children attended and she supported various charities and ministries. Her free time was spent looking after her family and no sacrifice was too big for her provided they were happy. She was very strong, courageous and her faith in God was unshakable even as she battled cancer. She brought colour to all lives and she will be dearly missed.

Dearest Dupe, It has taken this long to pen a message because words fail us. More than a month later and we are still in disbelief at your passing. We are saddened but we take solace in the good life that you lived and the wonderful legacy that you left behind. We are grateful as a family for the privilege of being part of your life for four decades. Continue to rest in the Lord and may he grant Kunle, Tobi, Segun, Tomi, Tolu, Kezia, and Bros Femi and the rest of the family and friends the fortitude to bear this great loss. (The Anjonrins)
