Tributes
Leave a tributeI came to meet her siblings who were just as pretty as her and even though I was a young boy back then I could appreciate that beauty and brains ran in their family. Continue resting wherever you are I'm sure it's a sweet solace together with Madamsi, Roger and of course my Dad's friend Ambrose Otieno

"Deb was a great soul, she was like a Mum to me. She was the best neighbor ever back at Sony and she always welcomed us at her home. Kate and Doll, my heart goes out to you. To the Were family, this is a sad time for you, may God give you guys do ne strength to overcome this. May Deb's soul rest in peace! Kind regards Jean on behalf of the Ayacko family
It is with deep shock that I have learnt of the death of my dear sister, friend, mentor, former employer Deborah Otieno (Mama Kate) She was my first employer back in Sony when she was the proprietor of DAC COMPUTERS, SARE. Through her I became a friend to most of her family members and more so her Mum who used to work at National Bank Awendo and later Kisumu. Even though we parted ways so may years back, Deb and I remained good friends and even later when we met again in Kisumu. She was very proud of me. Rest in Peace dear Deborah. You will forever be missed by me. I pray that our good God will take care of your two beautiful daughters. Till we meet again my friend.

MOM AND FRIEND
I’d like to honor my Aunt Deb with a brief reflection.
Words cannot capture the fullness of her life.. She was a cheerful, fun-loving, sincere, God fearing etc...list is endless person. Her smile could light up a room and it was infectious. She made everyone around her happy. Whether it was a funny joke or her positive attitude, she was a delight to be around.
I refer to her as mom because she played the mother figure at some point in my life and not only was she a mom but a very good friend who could offer a shoulder to lean on and wipe one's tears. she was one person who shared in sorrow and laughter. Aunt Deb was real.
The last time we spoke she told me ' Aloi' (like she fondly referred to me) lets love one another and be our brothers & sisters keeper. She also said there's nothing exciting in this world to do, we have done it all. Lets turn to God, Jehovah and do what pleases Him.
To my sisters Kate and Doll no words said or written will comfort you or make it better, CRY & cry it all out as much as you can I have been there I know how it feels, it's a wound that never heals, turn to God Almighty He is Amazing He does what no man can, He'll make it bearable for you.
To the family Mom, Dad, Sisters Brothers, In-laws and all relatives may our good Lord give you the courage to move on and comfort you.
To friends and everyone lets pray to God to forgive Aunty Deb her sins and allow her soul to RIP.
RIP IN PEACE MOM,OSIEPNA, AUNTY DEB
A Sister and a Mum
Deborah recently told me a story about when she had a first daughter Kate and I was the baby sitter. She mistakenly pulled down and broke a thermos flask even though everyone though it was me. We always made light of the incident and now it is my last memory of her. May she rest in eternal peace
