Loving tributes



Our smiling sunshine!
A life that had hardly begun, no time to do all you could have done. But we loved you enough for a lifetime, Deji Olusanya. Your laughter was like music to our ears. Your smile brightened the darkest of places. You never said 'I am leaving.' You never said 'Goodbye.' You were gone before we knew it. And only God knows why. A million times we have cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life, we loved you dearly in death, we love you still. In our hearts, you hold a place that no one else will ever fill. You are forever in our hearts. Sleep peacefully, our ever smiling sunshine.
With love,Aunt: Remi Turton, London

Why was the Deji Olusanya Foundation established?

​The primary goal of the Foundation is to help families prevent similar tragedies by working with other organizations to prevent gun deaths in children in the United States and other parts of the world.
