Obituary for Rotimi Mebude

Rotimi Mebude
February 11th, 1961 - May 19th, 2021

With humble acceptance of God’s will, we announce the passing to glory of our husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend on May 19th, 2021.

He was the beloved husband to Princess Tinuade Mebude and father to Tobi, Tosin and Debra Mebude. Rotimi Mebude is also survived by grandchildren, numerous brothers, sisters, aged mother etc.

He emigrated to Calgary, Canada in 1996 after obtaining a Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from University of Edinburgh, UK. Since arriving, he and his family made Calgary their home and led a successful career with a number of international companies in Calgary and Fort McMurray after which he went into self-employment.

Due to Covid19 restrictions, a private Virtual Service of Songs and Funeral Ceremony are being planned for Thursday, May 27, 2021 and Friday, May 28, 2021 respectively. For those who are not attending the private service, a visitation will be held at Choice Memorial (105-4715 13th Street NE) on Thursday, May 27, 2021 from 7:00 pm - 7:40 pm. As per AHS regulations, there is a maximum of 10 people allowed for the visitation. You must register your name and telephone number in the RSVP link below if you wish to attend the visitation.

While we are saddened by his early exit, we take solace not only in the fact that he has gone to be with his creator, but also that he had an eventful life during which he impacted the lives of many people within his circle of influence. We are therefore joyous and will be sending you an invitation (as soon as the details are worked out) to join us virtually to celebrate his life and time.

We pray that the Lord Almighty grant his soul eternal rest, amen.
