11th Anniversary

Today Eleven years on we pause to reflect,

It just seems like yesterday

For those we love can never be more than a thought away

For as long as there is a memory, they live in our hearts to stay

The lasting impact you made on each one of us

The sacrifice so great,

That even after you have left our sight

We think of you in silence

We often speak your name

In our thoughts, your light shines bright

Now all we have are sweet memories

 Your memory is our keepsake

With which we will never part

God has you inHis keeping

We have you in our hearts.

Forever cherished by your dear wife Mary Kanyi Kimani, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, relatives and friends In God’s hands you rest, in our hearts you live forever
