Dearest Auntie Lorna, thinking of you and laying a flower in remembrance of you. Coming to this site today I cannot believe that its been five years since you left us, but the beautiful calming music encourages me to know that those who rest in the Lord ''do not die in vain are indeed with him!'' I pray your children Steve, Carol and Angela are comforted as they recall those beautiful memories with you even as painful as your departure may still be. Rest in peace.

Dear Mom,
You know what; I honestly think that I should call you mummy/mommy at his point. I know you are wondering why but it all adds up to one word, a person that I’ve grown to know for the past six years of my life. So many years ago you gave birth to this hard headed, introverted, funny, shy, kind, selfless, annoying, sweet, human being that I call a friend – PETER!!!. He is a beautiful human being, and anything beautiful comes from something VERY BEAUTIFUL….YOU!
Don’t worry we are watching over him for you, he is in good hands.
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike, Angela and The Wandera Family members,
It was a great privilege and honor to know Aunt Lorna, your Mom. She was one of the kindest, compassionate and graceful person I have encountered. Every time I spoke with her she always reminded me of the Creators’ Great Love for all of us. Her journey on this physical realm may be no more, however, our fond memories of her will continue infinitely. She will be greatly missed. May her Spirit rest in eternal peace.

Michael and Angela - so sorry to learn of your great loss this morning. Michael, you always spoke so lovingly of your Mum and I wish I could have had the privilege of knowing her… In a way though I do through you, her amazing children. May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of ALL comfort (2 Corinthinans 1:3) be with you and the family at this time. Mum being absent from her physical body is now present in her resurrected body with Jesus.

Angie, I watched the relationship between you and your mother and was moved. There was a deep love, understanding and appreciation of one another. It is an honour to have known her and to share a fraction of that love. I appreciate every word of encouragement she gave me.Such a graceful and gracious woman! So glad to know she is happy and free of pain in the arms of the God she loved and revered so!

She was a wonderful person and a nurturing mother, who added warmth to our lives. Even when she was ill her vibrant laugh was uplifting and encouraging. Only good things await her on the other side. Her generous spirit lives on in her children.

Mrs. Wandera was my second Mom while at Loreto Convent Msongari, NBI. My family lived in Ethiopia in the 70s so it was not always easy for me to go home during half terms and exiasts. She and Mr. Wandera welcomed me into their home like a daughter. I learned so much about Kenyan life outside of the Convent from them, learned to appreciate their national cuisines and their culture and absolutely enjoyed being with all the Wandera family - Caroline, I'd like to thank you profusely for allowing me that experience also. You are all indeed my family from another mother and father and I will always relish in the fact that you all look at me that way. May God uphold you all during this time of darkness, but remember, your Mom is not gone, she's just away waiting for the day that you will all be reunited. May she RIEP and may God embrace her in His loving arms until then. I love you all!

I'm privileged to have know your mother since childhood. I have fond and warm memories of her. She leaves a wonderful legacy in her offsprings and a live well lived. She will be sorely missed. May her departed soul Rest In Eternal Peace!

My Wonderful Mother ...

November 12, 2020
God made a wonderful Mother,
A Mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine.
And He moulded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful Mother,
And He gave that dear Mother to me.

"A more perfect Mother, I could not desire ... "

SHE SHALL BE PRAISED

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
“Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
Honour her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Proverbs 31: 10 and 25-31



The special day on which she was born ..

November 12, 2017

Beautiful, gentle, wise, loving, charming, sweet, tender, principled .... there are no words to adequately describe her virtue.
Forever in our hearts.♡
