In Loving Memory/1st Anniversary

It is exactly one year today since God invited you to the heavenly Kingdom.. Our eyes still rolling with tears over losing you, so suddenly but we thank God for sustaining us through the past year No single day passes without us thinking about you.

Fondly and affectionately remembered by and missed by your Dad Peter Kahora,  Mum Susan Wairimu, brothers Kelvin and Jayden, uncle Kirima and all school mates and relatives who stood with us during that moment.

Mary Ann, when we count our blessings we count you you are our star. In God’s hands you rest, in our hearts you remain forever, you are one in a million and irreplaceable, your memory will never die, you will forever live in our hearts. Rest in peace Mary Ann until we meet again. In these things we are more than conquerors, through him who loved us For I’m convinced that neither death nor life, nor things present, nor things to come, nor power, nor height, nor anything else, in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, our lord.
