This day reminds me of that big surprise party aunt Barb threw you on your 50th birthday in one of the fancy restaurants! We had a lot of fun, good food, that was so lovely. I remember, you had no idea who was there but some of us had arrived. You pulled out in the packing lot with some of the girls and then came in the restaurant. When you came and you saw all of us, you had a big smile, laughter, started joking as usual. We welcomed you, and I remember telling me as usual that Rachel, I'm so blessed. I know you always counted your blessings, you never took life for granted as some of us, I admired you for that. I thank God that I happened to be part of your big day without even paying a single penny. Thank you aunt Barb for making that happen, that was so lovely and brings back all those wonderful memories we had with our dear Uncle. Happy Birthday dear Uncle and miss you so much!

Uncle its been two years ever since you departed from us. You were such agreat man of great personality we deed seek advise from you whenever we need advise. You encouraged us to work and keep on updating person's whom we where dealing with for purposes of transparency. We look onto you cause you were hardworking and encouraged every one to work. I know you are a better place. We miss and love you to bitz.

My dear uncle, many people might say that it has been a long time since you departed from us, but I always feel that you are still with us because I have never stopped thinking and talking about you because of the big inspiration you were in my life. As aunt Barb says in her tributes, I always pray that you are in good hands with the Lord and he is protecting your beautiful soul, as you always said that "I am blessed God loves Me," Yes he did and he will love you forever. You made a big difference in my life, for example you taught me how to be my real self, trustworthy, not give up on my dreams, to always think big, and the most important thing be there for those in need!!! That was a big one, because you were there for me: Put a roof on my head, fed me, protected me and loved me unconditionally when you didn't even know me that much, but you just followed your heart and took me in your beautiful home, and from there I now have my own home. Love you uncle and will always do. You had a beautiful heart, because even in your last days when you were so weak, you talked to me about business and how I can improve my life, just because you weren't a selfish person. I understand these are not the best days for aunt Barb, but promise that we will always try, and try to be there for her, though we just can't do much, it is only the Good Lord who can give her the strength to go through as she takes one day at a time. May the Good Lord continue comforting your beautiful heart and help us learn from your life.
Miss you.

Today was sombre...one of those days u never forget, but some song kept playing in ma head despite evthing.."oyo omwana yafuka superstar...dododo superstar...dododo..superstar".. on and on it goes...that was one of the songs u used to play and enjoy in yo car, uncle. Like u, I wld wait for the "superstar" word and utter it aloud during those rides. U wld share yo endless ideas, plans, praise yo wife, talk about yo sister, yo late mum...uncle I still remember those rides. U r thought about, talked about and missed a lot. May Allah make it easy for you and enable us comfort yo wife. We will keep praying for you. (Our superstar)

This is the time to remember the last time we were together! Your life appeared to weak and tired, ready to begin another journey. Now that you have been yonder for some time, I hope beyond the chasm is as exciting as this side. He we continue to battle with daily chores, but your life here is an inspiration. Till we meet again, rest well my friend.

My sweet love, It’s had to believe that it's been two years since you went back home. You will forever be in this heart of mine.Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday. Missing you is the heartache that never goes away. It started as now, then into days, months ""now years.""This is a journey with no end in sight. Nothing seems the same anymore or will ever be the same. The pain has not lessened since you went away but I am learning to live with it. I just can’t explain all of the feelings I get. I get happy and sad and joyous and angry. There is no single road in this journey I have taken. Every road is uphill and my will sometimes shaken but I just keep moving on with your memory as my spark to light up my heart and to fend off the dark. All I have left are your memories and name. We talk about the good times like you’re right by our side. You may not be here to physically touch or to feel but the feelings I get are certainly warm, kind and real. I miss your pure love, integrity, toughness, tenacity , and wisdom. It's a daily struggle not having your input in my decisions making. Thank you for being in my life as long as you did. You would be proud of the girls. You instilled so much wisdom in them. Jalia followed in my footsteps, now at Marymount in the program. Nazze as you used to call her has turned out to be a great loving wife and also doing great in school. I bet you are proud of Rachel when you see her new in her new home focusing on homework. Guess who is getting married soon. Aituni as you continued to call after that nurse has also found her calling. I wish you were here to work on the boys.   I long to talking to you in person. Last week I had a big smile on my face when I had Jalia discussing racism with her friend. I had tears in my eyes because I remembered your conversation with her the day you discussed that issue and how she would have a change of heart in regards to how blacks are treated in this country after being in America for a while. I remember that argument so well so that why I whispered in the air for you to join in and listen to their conversation. Exactly as you had predicted. You were an exceptionally astute man in all   fields. Just watchout for the our business. Forever in this heart of mine, an everlasting bond, for now until the end of time, are memories so fond. I loved you then, love you now and will always love you sweat heart. Stay blessed God's best angel.

I miss u so much my dir uncle how people can forget not knowing that ur watching over everything. RIP

Life goes - we treasure your memories. You live in our hearts. You will never be gone.

I wish you were here today even for just a little while so I could say Happy Birthday sweet heart and see your beautiful smile. Today I'll do my very best to try and find a happy place...struggling to hide my heavy heart and the tears on my face. I will continue to praise God for his generosity of having shared you with me. I hope you're doing ok in heaven up above. May the angels hold you close and sing you a happy song...and I'll be sending wishes to you today and all year .The days I do not think of you are very hard to find. My thoughts are always with you and Your place no one can fill. In life i loved you dearly and In death i love you still. Miss you a lot

Uncle i will always miss u I pray that ur in heaven watching over us ur loved daughters, u were the best thing that happened in some ov our lives. Whenever i dream about u i feel its real especially when ur moving around the hotel. I will live to cherish all the moments we shared, ur advices whenever u called me may ur soul rest in internal peace.

It has been a year my friend since you departed. I look up in the stars to look for your special one. I know it is there and it twinkles every night. This gives me strength and inspiration to go on- looking back at the good times we had and to celebrate your life. Although short on this earth, i know that you would not want us to lengthen it with sorrow. Rest well my friend and shine brightly in the night...giving hope to many who search it.

I LOVED YOU THEN, I LOVE YOU NOW, AND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU. I MISS YOU SO MUCH
When I woke up this morning, I felt sick inside because today is your anniversary of the day the good Lord called you home. Many flashbacks of that dreadful day keep coming. This is one memory i wish that would go away. I still cant believe that you are gone for good but at the same time I thank God for having shared his perfect master creation. I visited JohnHopkins on 7W & ICU. Instead of the nurses reporting to me how your day was as it used to be, the topic was towards how I was coping with your lose. It was as if I wanted to go there one more time and make sure. It still hurts like a fresh new cut. I had refused to light a candle on this page because it makes it seem so real writing about you as "'in the past'" . I am wondering why the reality that you are never coming home has not fade some of its sting. Shouldn't I have come to grips with it by now? You'd think after 370 days I could open our bedroom door, look down below in the family room, read the daily report, read IBM reservations or reviews without tears burning my eyes. Oh dearest if it tears could bring you back!!!!!!!
Christmas is on the way. i just want to run away and not face it. Nothing
is the same now! I don't even want to go back home for Christmas as usual. Getting through the days is so bloody tough with a fake smile on the face. Hearing Christmas songs and seeing everyone happy brings me to tears because it reminds me of of love and happiness that i once had. what should I do my love now that I don't have you? I am so lost and alone. The world isn't the same without you in it. We talk about you on a daily basis and I still refer to you as in the present, Godfrey, uncle, general manager, muzee, mr. Kimera etc.. I don't think I will ever address you as omugenzi. You always left a traceable mark wherever you went or to whomever you talked to. Recently when I went to the bank to make a deposit, the Teller said " I haven't seen my friend Mr. Kimera for sometime, tell him I said Hii" of course I bursted into tears which was embarrassing. So she apologized and all the other employees joined in asking me when, what happened. The reaction I got was amazing. You were important to so many people. Your dedication to the people you loved has changed their lives, even after yours ended. Your ability to push yourself to achieve your personal best has inspired many in caring, business and success in general. Your refusal to be anything other than who you were, has cemented your place in the hearts of every person who loved you. What you see is what you get. "Pure honesty" honesty was your model. No fake ness of any sort. God how I wish that the world had a handful of your character-wishing the best for everyone. It keeps me going. I feel your determination, tenacious grip and discipline when I want to quit or face uncertainty & your confidence in me when my own wanes. You know me so well and knowing that you know moves me, changes me, and propels me to dig deeper, try harder, reach further, be patient, understanding, reasonable, forgive and move on & fight to make a difference. I do feel your presence, "not in the ghostly sense", but in the warmth of love . We were such a great team, you being the coach and me being the Captain. We won quite a few medals. Only God knows how far we would have gone.
Thank you for having shared your life with me and loving me unconditionally.
You will forever be missed.

I love you now and always

A Letter From Heaven

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say,
Though first of all to let you know I arrived OK.
I'm writing this from heaven, here I dwell with God above,
Here there's no more tears of sadness, here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy because I am out of sight,
Remember I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said "I welcome you".
"It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone,
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here so badly, you're part of my great plan,
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things that He wished for me to do,
And foremost on that list - was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in your bed at night the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years,
Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.

But do not be afraid to cry; it helps relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers unless there was some rain.
I wish I could explain to you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you would not understand.
One thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over,
I'm closer to you now than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb,
But together we can do it by "taking one day at a time."

It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and in pain,
Then you can say to God at night.. "My day was not in vain".
So now I am contented...that my life was worthwhile,
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.
So if you meet someone who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps, only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go from that body to be free,
Remember you're not going...you're coming here to me.



" Always on my mind; Forever in my heart. Loved then, love now, will always love you"

My dear Uncle, it is one year since you departed from us physically but not spiritually. All the good memories about you still exist in my life which has made a big impact in whatever I do, especially in my marriage. My consolation is that, I know you are in a good place and God took you for a reason. You did a lot for me when you were still alive, so I always ask the good Lord to guide and show me how I can be there for Aunt Barb and I promise to do my best with God's help. Miss your love, jokes and everything, era Nsaba mukama akuwumuzze mirembe.

It was the shocking news that brought tears to my eyes on this day, and you made me remember what it was like to cry. But God had decided it was your time to go. Its harder than I ever thought life could be without you. But I know you are always looking down on us, keeping us safe. You will always be dear to my heart, am so grateful for all the time we got to spend together. As a day doesn't pass by with out me thinking about you, but I know you are in a better place. I will always miss you.

My dear Uncle and friend, I can't believe that you have been gone for a year now because it feels like yesterday when your golden heart stopped beating and hard working hands to rest! You always had the best advise and was there whenever I needed you. You lived a selfless life uncle. I miss your laughter, love and care. I love you and miss you so much!!! Rest in peace.

Your Jokes, advice, smile are still so fresh in my memories. They say time flies, but no it does not. I still remember every detail, as if you are just gone yesterday that you are coming back tomorrow. Am sure we shall meet in Heaven. R.I.P but guide us in spirit, we still need your advice.

At times like this it's sometimes hard to find the words to say, Well goodbyes are not forever and nor is it the end, so when angels came and called away Godfrey get to know that the empty place that he has left behind within this world reminds us just how brief a stay we also have before we go. So when it’s time to bid farewell to him whom we are dearly going to miss, let’s just say we’ll meet ag

we’ll meet again and promise with this… that the true gift of love remains although we now must part.. Until forever and beyond we'll keep you in our hearts.my prayer to aunty barbra may God strengthen you at heart and mind may Godfrey's soul R.I.P.

Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
For as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart.

Those we love remain with us

sometime back in 2009 I had the opportunity to meet with Mr . Godfrey when he came to visit me at my apartment . Found him to a fine human being with a good sense of humor who can interarct well with people. May his soul rest in perfect peace and may he enter into the kingdom of God. I pray and hope that Gog will continue to give strength to the wife during this sad moment.

Aunt Babara although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in our every thoughts and prayers.

May the sorrow you feel in your heart lighten by the love that surrounds you.

I hope you are looking down at us with pride. We also hope that your life here on earth gave us n example of how we should live our lives. God bless you for having us yourself. Thank you.

Words alone can't explain what you meant to my life. You were there when I needed you. your words of advise have always made an impact in my life, never taken sides. you have been my dear uncle and friend who always put a smile on my face. I and my husband will always remember the beautiful memories we have shared including our wedding. Love u dearly and promise to be there for aunt Barb.

I do thank the Almighty GOD for your Life, you have always been a people's person & opening your hands for almost every one. We shall always remember the high level of maturity & advises you showed us all. You will be dearly missed forever.
