Frances Adekoya

Arrington Sinmisola Frances Adekoya, entered our lives with strength and purpose on July 7, 2025, and departed far too soon at five months old. Though her time on earth was brief, Arrington's impact was profound. She was a fighter—bold, courageous, and full of a radiant spirit that touched everyone around her.

She is deeply cherished and survived by her parents, Berkley and Wale Adekoya; siblings, Adewale David Adekoya, Jr. (A.D.) and Adebuloye Duke Adekoya; grandparents, Pamela and C.N. Jenkins, Jr. and Olushola and Ayotunde Francis Adekoya; great-grandparents, Pamela and Frank S. Royal, Sr.; aunts and uncles, Sydney A.

Royal, Jr., Lisa and Philip Haynie, III; and a host of great aunts and great uncles from the United Kingdom and Nigeria; first cousins, Oluwabamise Ogunmekan and Raymond G. Gordon, III, all of whom will forever carry her memory in their hearts.
