Toyin attended Holly Trinity School- Ebute Ero, Lagos, Omolewa Nursery and Primary School- Orita Mefa, and Olivet Baptist Highschool in Oyo. She then attended the University of Benin, where graduated with a B.Sc. in Sociology and completed her NYC in Ilorin, Kwara State. She continued her education graduating from the University of Ife, with a M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering, and furthering her education in the United States, where she attended Clark Atlanta University, graduating with a Master’s in Social Work (MSW). Toyin called home to three countries, Nigeria, where she started her life, The United Kingdom, where she supported her husband Dr. Viktor Olumide Osinubi as he completed his Ph.D., and had her two daughters Adenola and Mayowa, and the United States, where she lived a fulfilled and beautiful life, and would also be her final resting place. Toyin worked at Visiting Nurse Health Systems (VNHS) for 27 years, where she held numerous Social Work and supervisory positions, and up until the day of her transition served as a Manager of Clinical Compliance and Client Satisfaction. She was beloved and held in high regard by her coworkers, who praised her for her intelligence, meticulousness, dedication, empathy, mentorship, and constant support. Toyin was a light in everyone's lives. Her infectious smile and positive energy filled any space she graced. She was a beautiful woman on the outside and had a beautiful and pure soul. She was a devoted and loving mother, a loving, energetic, and supportive grandmother, and a loyal and compassionate wife, taking care of her husband through years of difficult health crises. She was an amazing and beautiful sister, cousin, friend, co-worker, mentor, and leader. Everyone knew they could count on her to be there for them. She had so much love to share and always saw the good in everyone. She lived a vibrant, and active life, and was heavily involved in her community. She was an active, dedicated, and beloved member of numerous organizations, including the Nigerian Women Association of Georgia (NWAG), Eko Club of Atlanta, The African Women Pac (TAWPAC), and Olivet Baptist High School (OBHS) Alumni c/o 71-75, and held numerous leadership positions in these organizations. Toyin was fun, loving, and an absolute joy. She loved her family and friends. She was an incredible cook (who made delicious stew). Her grandkids were her everything, and she would go to the end of the world and back for them. She enjoyed traveling, being active, and giving back to her community. She loved to dance, explore, and learn new things. She was a loyal friend and confidant, and everyone who had ever encountered her always said she was a ray of sunshine or a bright and beautiful light. She was preceded in death by her parents, maternal and paternal grandparents, great aunts and uncles, her brother Adedayo Jones Asaolu, and sister Olamide Sholotan. Those left to cherish her memories are her husband Dr. Viktor Olumide Osinubi; daughters Dr. Adenola Emiola (nee Osinubi) and Mayowa Osinubi, son-in-law Oluwatosin Emiola, granddaughters, Abisola and Demilola Emiola; Siblings – Omololu Edward Sholotan, Folake Oladeinde, Ayoola Babajide Sholotan, Ayotunde Sijuade, Simisola Mabogunje, Morolayo Sholotan, Damilola Owolabi, Bukola Madehin, and Yemi Adesina Ashaolu; aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, cousins and so many friends. The world will never be the same with this amazing and beautiful woman gone. Although she has transitioned away from Earth, her memory will never be forgotten, and she will forever be a beautiful light in all our hearts, and the love we have for her will never go dull.
