Obituary

Emmanuel passed peacefully from this life the morning of September 24, 2022. He was a fighter all the way until the end, never one to give up and always gave it his all. Emmanuel was born on September 7, 1977, in Manhattan, NY to his parents, Theophilus Oyelowo and Stella Oyelowo.

After spending nine of his early years in Nigeria, he migrated back to the Bronx, NY where he graduated from Taft High School. Upon graduation, he would go on to attend a technical school. He would later develop a passion for graphic design which he showcased through his business, Blazin Graphics. Additionally, he loved helping those with disabilities and went on to work in the field for many years in various positions.

Emmanuel is survived by his parents Theophilus Oyelowo and Stella Oyelowo

His five children: Tajonae Oyelowo, Zarayah Simmons, Tysheim Oyelowo, Tiahnni Oyelowo and Iysiz Oyelowo

Siblings: Joseph Babatunde Oyelowo and Comfort Olutoyin Ajayi

Nieces & Nephews: Macy Oyelowo, James Ajayi, Nora Oyelowo, and Gabriel Ajayi

& a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who all loved him dearly.

Emmanuel will be most remembered by his infectious personality and willingness to help others. He enjoyed being a loving father to his children and a great friend to those around him. He had a big heart, treated anyone who had the privilege to cross paths with him as family, and he will be greatly missed.
