William Githu & Mary Gathoni Kimemia

Mum and Dad, it’s been five and twenty years, respectively since you left us, and your legacy remains strong with us. You both emphasized the joy to be found in working hard and that it was its own reward when undertaken cheerfully and with diligence. You lived lives of uncompromising integrity and shunned short-cuts.

You spurred us on to educational achievement and personal endeavours, and by your example, showed that those blessed with opportunities for advancement and success had a duty to give back, reach out and lend a hand to those without those advantages.

Since you left us, your legacy is being passed down to your grandchildren and to your great-grandchildren who have since been born. Our determination is that the values you instilled in us will be passed down to encourage and inspire the coming generations.

Dearest Mum and Dad, doting Cucu and Guka continue to rest in blessed peace; you are fondly remembered.

Blessed are those who die in the Lord … for they will rest from their hard work; for their good deeds follow them (Revelation 14:13)
