It is well , it is well my sister , it is well family . Words alone cannot say it all but
Njeru my brother rest in Peace , Mbiuks rest in peace bro no more pain , no more weekly dialyses year inn year out , you have fought many many health battles for years mighty and small , which all started with diabetes leading to all other major complications, Bp , kidney failure , leg amputation , to blood vein rapture in brain . Surprisingly you had always fought and won countless times , actually even this time I never ever thought you would loose even when in ICU , you were messi or Ronaldo when it came to throwing comeback surprises locally and internationally (Kenya & in India) , you took whatever life threw to you very positively with lot of determination and pulled back . That will remain the greatest lesson to me bro .
l will miss alot ,alot from you Mbiuks !!!!
your wise counsel , those light moments full of laughter ,the way you called me "man-Njoro" ama "DC", the way you used to call my wife "shiro witu" ooh that soft laughter & beautiful smile...!!!!
I will forever be greatful for so many, many things which you did for me, some of the most memorable being you gave me my first ever Radio cassette player back then which meant sooo much to me as a young man, you groomed me right after highschool as I landed in your place and you molded me , to adulthood /manhood , to marriage , to fatherhood and in joining business world.
And of course I can't forget our twist dance & moves those days , you were a star in dancing floor.
You brought value and added more value in my life and to our family.
Your kindness and generosity knew no boundaries Mbiuks my beloved brother .
As a family your wise counsel in our family meetings will never be forgotten or taken for granted , how you used to teach us our kikuyu culture , you showed us how to slaughter & roast goats & share .
You slaughtered countless goats in almost every family/friends functions .
It was an honour a big honour being your friend , a younger brother and a very close associate and sometimes your driver .
Thanks God for giving us such a wonderful brother.
Rest in eternal peace bro , Mbiuks rest , with No more pain !!.
Till we meet again koma thayu , uromama kwega kuraga !!
To you my Dear sister Loise Njeru take heart and be strong as you have always been and showed us .
I thank God for having you around our late brother in good and challenging times.
I celebrate you for being a strong woman the engine behind my brothers 62yrs in this world, your resilience amaze me , you never disappointed or abandoned your man at any given time in his time of dire need , you always rose to the occasion and performed tasks ahead of you beyond our expectations.
Very very few women could stick and stand with their men or marriage having undergone just a quarter of what you have gone through . many could have thrown towels long time ago but you loise Njeru !! , mama Muthoni !! , Mama-Ian !!, Mama lenny !! You have always Rose above all waves and filled the shoes as a wife/caregiver ,mother , father , sister , grandmother, physician ,helper , church elder , village elder , driver , gym instructor, chairlady , tour guide. therapist etc.
At one time you proved what a man can do , a woman can as well do better , when you chased Nairobi women hospital ambulance which was carrying your dear husband Mbiuks and you never feared or panicked while in traffic jam , you drove zigzag in high speed all the way from Nairobi women's Rongai to Nairobi women's Hurringum , you kept ambulance bumper to bumper , you kept it on toes with full lights on like you had participated in safari rally a yr ago , this was just to make sure nothing happened to your sweetheart behind your back or without your presence and authorisation, you guarded Mbiuks very dearly and very very close to your heart .
Truly you are a living example of what a strong woman or strength of a woman looks like or what it means to be "Mutumia Ngatha"..
I salute you loise Njeru .
I celebrate and enjoyed the many trips and tours you have always organized for our families just to make sure you gave your man a change of fresh air away from home .
My boys Roy , Rey & Gyan will live to tell stories of our two families last vacations in december with Mbiuks in Diani Mombasa , Enkasiti Kitengela and many more.
Loise Njeru , fear not cos
All Our families are totally proud of you from Njerus/Njagis ,Mathagus, muchiris , Gitandus and Mwihanjos and i know even the church for a job well done , standing with your husband in his most trying moments of his life during his sickness , you never abandoned him , instead you abandoned most of your personal commitment (chamas)and opted to be there for my brother.
Anytime Whenever you could accidentally meet loise , many can confess, Mbiuks was not far from the location ,he was either in parking , restaurant or hospital. You were truly Godly joined.
I have no enough words despite this being a big blow to you and to all of us .
I can only say only God who can repay you for the good job you did towards your late husband all through .
Asante sana loise Njeru
Tukiuge atia !! Tiga tuge Ngai arokuririkana ...!!
