Olufemi "Femi" Paschal Ogunkorode, a third-year pharmacy student, was both a friend and staff member of the Athletic/Recreation Center (ARC). Femi was also an honor student and member of the University's tennis team.
On March 23, 2006, Femi suddenly passed away at the age of 20 years old. It was a devastating moment for the University's Community. He brought so much positive energy and enthusiasm into our lives and hearts.
Femi was a great achiever, a well brought up child and a thoroughly hard working young man. He never disobeyed his parents. His humility and gentility earned him a lot of respect from all his teachers and friends both in high school and college.
All the people who knew him never stopped referring to him as a great role model. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Even though he died young, he left an indelible mark. He was a great role model to his siblings.
