Rest In Peace dear cousin
Write Tribute… may her soul rest in eternal peace
It is with shock and sadness that Ihavelearned of the death of Joyce. She was a wonderful perso to kn0w, so full of life and ideas and initiative. We were partners in a British Council sponsored collaboration. She enriched the lives of myself and my colleagues who worked with her. So sad. Much too soon to go.
I am very sad to hear that Joyce has passed away. She was so full of energy and joy and so motivated to foster peace education in Kenya which she did with great success. I will miss her not just as my colleague but as my friend.
It is with great sadness that I receive this news, may the good Lord rest your soul in peace and may your own works on peace in Kenya continue to blossom. We will remember you for your devotion and love at all times. Rest in Peace in Peace dear Prof Joyce Mwesa_ Mbuvi
