Such shocking news and it’s sad to loose such an inspirational person. You were a friend and a mentor, you will be missed by many. May the Lord comfort your family that has been left behind and give them strength during this time and even later in life. Go well Maara!

Deeply saddened with the news, RIP Boss
Sudden, shocking and devastating. Fond memories as a service manager at Minet and at Madison Insurance as Group Business Manager. Your ruthless efficiency and support shall never be extinguished from my mind. RIP William.

RIP William……
You were a leader not a boss. You taught me encouraged me about working hard and coming to office early…..I will always remember the greetings we had each morning ” Kijana umefika”
Go well Maara till we meet again
Shocker! I mourn your passing on bro, but only God knows best🙏🏾. RIP bro, Till we meet again🙏🏾
My Wife and I would have liked to have visited you personally but due to the covid pandemic we are unable to do so, I would like to pass on my condolences and I am very sorry for your loss, I do however have such a wonderful message of comfort that I wanted to share with you.
Jesus foretold a time in the future when under his kingdom rulership, the grave would be emptied- john 5:28,29. In ancient times, the faithful man Job expected that after his death God would eventually restore him to life- John 14:14,15.
Imagine a time in the future when those in the grave will be brought back to life here on earth! Many are coming to know and being empowered to cope with grief by embracing the hope of seeing their dead loved ones again.
You owe it to yourself to investigate the evidence that the Bible’s council and promises are sound.

I learnt of your passing with great shock. Words fail me at this time because its really difficult to accept that you went so suddenly but then, that’s God’s plan and we have to accept. May God comfort your family. RIP
Death can never take a good man away, for, in the hearts of the people he inspired, the legacy remains and continuous throughout generations. He was a great Boss and Mentor to many and may his soul find eternal rest. SAD, really SAD even words can not describe it ..

Rest in peace William. You were a great and passionate boss. I still remember your words in the morning management meetings “Results are rewarded not effort”. May the Lord comfort your family. Fare the well.
Fare thee well William. You were a great genuine soul. Till we meet again
Fare thee well Sir.
You were such a generous, humble and gentle Soul . Will forever cherish your smile William . Rest In Peace till we meet again
Dear William. I pray that the angels welcomed you with shangwe. It’s hard to process such a sudden departure. I recall the many times you were so keen to exercise and you even taught me about detoxing. To be so disciplined and to leave so early can only mean they needed a teacher in heaven. Rest in Peace
