Echoes of Dr. Lateef Olaniyan’s Final Journey

6 Mins read
By Sunday Oyinloye   A deep sense of loss mixed with gratitude filled the atmosphere at the Generations Church, 431 Brown Ave, Moses Lake, WA on June 6, 2026, as family members, friends, colleagues and community leaders gathered to pay their final respects to Dr. Lateef Olaniyan, founder of the Moses Lake Medical Team, and owner of Southgate Pharmacy, Moses Lake, and Benton Southgate Pharmacy in Prosser, both in Washington State. For many in attendance, the occasion was not merely a funeral but a celebration of a life dedicated to service, compassion and the wellbeing of others. Since 2008, Dr. Lateef Olaniyan faithfully led the Moses Lake Medical Team on annual free medical missions to Nigeria bringing compassionate healthcare to communities. As speaker after speaker took turns to honour his memory, a common theme emerged: Dr. Olaniyan was a man who lived for others. Whether through his commitment to providing healthcare for the underserved, his generosity to those in need, or his unwavering dedication to community service, the late pharmacist left an indelible mark on the lives of thousands. Speaking at the funeral service, a representative of the Moses Lake Medical Team, Francie Irwin described the passing of Dr. Lateef Olaniyan as a painful loss. The representative traced the formation of the Moses Lake Medical Team to 2007, when Dr. Olaniyan conceived the idea. According to her, through the team, Dr. Olaniyan was able to provide medical care to more than 100,000 people during his lifetime, stressing that he literally saved countless lives. Also paying tribute, Tanya Valdez, who worked for Dr. Olaniyan in his pharmacy for 16 years, described the late pharmacist as a father figure who eventually became her best friend. In her words: “Dr. Lateef was more than a boss; he was a father figure and my best friend. Even when his health was failing, he remained focused on helping others with health challenges. He often called me his daughter. He was the father figure I needed, and I do not know how I will live my life without him.” For Michael, the eldest son of Dr. Lateef Olaniyan, memories of his father are defined not only by professional accomplishments but by the simple, enduring values that shaped his life. Describing his father as a hardworking man, Michael recalled spending countless hours driving around town with him and playing basketball together. Yet, what stood out most was his father’s extraordinary ability to connect with people. According to him, a quick trip anywhere with Dr. Olaniyan was almost impossible. “He was a man of the people,” Michael recalled. “Everywhere we went, he knew someone. He would stop to greet people, ask about their families and spend time talking with them.” Those interactions reflected a philosophy that guided Dr. Olaniyan throughout his life. He believed that every individual had a story worth hearing and deserved to be treated with dignity and respect. That same wisdom shaped his relationship with his children. Michael recounted a particularly difficult period after graduating from college and relocating to San Francisco. As he struggled to find his footing professionally, he turned to his father for guidance. “I called him because things were not going the way I expected and I was looking for advice,” he said. “His response was simple: ‘Just do your best.’” It was a phrase that became a defining principle in the family. Rather than offering easy solutions, Dr. Olaniyan shared stories of his own journey after arriving in the United States in 1981 and the obstacles he had overcome through perseverance, hard work and faith. To his son, those conversations revealed a man whose success was built on resilience and determination. Despite spending decades in the United States, Dr. Olaniyan never lost touch with his roots. Family trips to Nigeria often became lessons in humility and belonging. Michael recalled that whenever they visited, his father would make it a point to stop and greet relatives, friends and acquaintances, no matter how busy the schedule. “He never forgot where he came from,” he said….
