Dad, it has been six years and I still hear you counting the seconds at the gate. Thank you for every early morning.
Remembering Grace Wambui Njoroge · 3y ago
Family friend
Mama Grace welcomed my mother into her kitchen when we first moved to Nairobi and taught her to make chapati the way her own mother did. We still make them her way every Christmas, and we always say her name when we do. Rest well, mama.
Remembering Samuel Maina Njoroge · 5y ago
Family friend from Eldoret
I only met Mzee Samuel a handful of times, at weddings and harambees, but every time he asked about my studies and remembered exactly what I had told him the year before. That kind of attention is rare. My deepest condolences to Ruth and the whole family. Lala salama, mzee.
