Ayo is pre-deceased by his parents Akano and Omolola Adediji, his sister Risikat, half-brother Tijani.
Ayo will be remembered as a loving husband and father. He was deeply committed to his church, community and country -- tirelessly campaigning in countless elections, ushering church services, keeping informed on all current events, and many trips between Canada and Nigeria. He was an avid sports enthusiast; hockey, football and soccer, a big fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Manchester United. He LOVED to fish.
The family would like to express deep thanks to the staff at Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital for their compassionate care.
