" You are physically not within our reach but you are still in the memory of many ,I included. I still remember you as strong, open , courageous and cheerful sister in law ,the one I have known for the last 25 years.
I remember the several kilometers we walked on foot when you visited Southern Nyanza in the year 1989..........you were physically strong.
I remember the joy I, your beloved husband Maurice and Dick had ,when we visited your parents in Sakwa during nyombo ceremony 17 years ago.
I remember you offered an "open cheque " to en able me come and join you and Maurice in the U.S(17 years ago).....Wonderful heart.
May the lord rest your saul in eternal peace till we meet again NYAR KAPIYO.

My family and I were shocked to learn of the untimely death of Nelly. Nelly was my classmate at the University of Nairobi first degree in law course, 1985-1988. We also attended the Kenya School of Law for a postgraduate study on Advocacy together.
I remember Nelly in a special way as together with me and some other quite brilliant students of the University of Nairobi had the rare opportunity at that time of undergoing articles or pupillage at the law firm of Kaplan & Stratton.
Nelly was intelligent, courageous and much hard working.
I pass special condolences to the bereaved family.
May the Almighty God take Nelly's soul up to Heaven.

I am sad to hear of the departure of my fellow classmate who I've not seen for so many years. I still remember Nelly from our years in law school - very kind ,confident and thoughtful.
My prayers and thoughts go out to her family.
May her soul rest in eternal peace.

Nelly,
It's been many years since we spent time together, but I will always remember that smile of yours - and sharing so many laughs. I think of you often. Just last week you were in my thoughts as I spent the day at the zoo with my little guy, just like the day we spent there when Benjamin was just 2. May your strength and spirit live on with those that love you.

Nelly, NyarKapiyo.
We deeply, deeply mourn your passing. Even though we have not seen one another in a long time, we connected and communicated. We have spiritually journeyed with you, we have prayed for miracles but as you often said, God knows the time. There is a time for everything and God has released you from pain and you are now at peace.
To Maurice, Ben and Lizzie, Danstan, Barbie, Babu and the entire Ojoo family, may your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Please find comfort in the words from John 14:1-4 (NIV).“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Those we love live in our hearts for ever.

Nelly,
We will miss you dearly following your untimely departure from earth. May the Lord keep you in eternal peace.
Long are the memories of the many gatherings we had, as young families and students coping with life in a foreign land; to days of settlement to careers and raising families in the distant (yes from Kenya) North America. These were true, solid bonds cemented by common challenges, and shared experiences that underlined our true family friendships.
My brother Maurice and the children (Benjamin & Elizabeth), we remain with you in spirit. Time & distance doesn't allow us to be with you at this time of need. We are sure the Lord will guide you & lead you to accept the "new normal", a life without beloved, jolly Nelly. Remember the words in the Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Matunda Nyanchama, Nairobi, Kenya

May you take comfort in knowing that Nelly will always watch over you.
"I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love."
