Rememberance

2nd Anniversary Dec 23, 2016

It is exactly 2 years since you quietly slipped from us and went to be with your best friend Jesus, your father and your mentor.

We love you and miss you dearly. You remain an icon, a mentor, an inspirational and visionary leader, who put everyone ahead of partisan and parochial consideration.

A preacher, an educationist and down-to-earth leader, an excellent reverend and a politician, who lay a foundation of a strong family, a nation and a village.

A firm believer of honesty, truth, transparency and of Jesus Christ, an example not only to your children but to the Nation at large.

Lovingly remembered by your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
