Special Appreciation to the OGQC Class of 1974
A special word of appreciation goes to the representatives of the Old Girls’ Queens College (OGQC) Class of 1974, whose unwavering support, compassion and solidarity brought great comfort to Mrs. Kunbi Osinloye-Amachree and her family throughout the funeral ceremonies.
Their presence at the Service of Songs, Wake-Keeping and Funeral Service reflected the enduring bond of sisterhood and lifelong friendship that defines the Queens College alumni community. Their commitment, despite their personal and professional engagements, was a remarkable demonstration of loyalty, empathy and shared humanity.
Such a thoughtful gesture deserves special commendation and serves as a shining example of the values of unity, friendship and selfless support that continue to distinguish the OGQC Class of 1974.
May God richly bless every member for standing with one of their own during this difficult period, and may He continue to strengthen the cherished bonds that unite the Queens College family.
May God Almighty also grant journey mercies to all family members, friends and sympathisers who travelled from far and near to honour her memory, and bring everyone safely back to their respective homes.
