Dad of two. Bad at golf.
No public profiles yet.

My father had Lion in a Cage on a cassette he played every Jamhuri Day, he said it was one of the few songs from outside Africa that understood what Mandela's imprisonment meant. I only found out years later it was an Irish woman singing it. Listened to it again this morning after my mum called to tell me.
For Kevin Morris · 12d ago
I read this on my phone during a matatu ride into town and could not stop thinking about it. A man who gave two whole careers to one community, police work, then teaching and coaching, then back to the uniform near fifty, and he was killed on his way to help at another scene entirely. 55 years old. We argue so much here about what public servants are owed, and then you read something like this, a man who stopped practice to pray with his team when they had a bad day. I never knew him, I am all the way in Nairobi reading a story about Florida, but that line about him, if you knew Kevin you loved him, it just sits with you. Sorry, rambling. Rest well.

My uncle had a VHS of Waterland he'd brought back from a London trip, we watched it on a wet Nairobi afternoon when I was maybe twelve. Didn't follow all of it then but that first scene never left me. Rest well, Peter.
For Della "Udella" Maffiola · 22d ago
99 years is a long life, but to carry that kind of loss since 1958 and still push for safer schools takes something else entirely. Read about Joseph and the Our Lady of Angels fire years ago and it never left me. Thinking of Linda and Ann Marie today.
For Nobutaka Tsutsui · 24d ago
Read about the 2016 Supreme Court ruling in his favour during a media law seminar in Nairobi, our lecturer used it as the example of a politician actually winning against a big newspaper. Stuck with me for years. 81 is a full life. Rest well, sir.
For Sergio Toledo Machado · 20 Sept 2026
my father called me tonight, just to tell me this. he's never even talked about Brazilian basketball before but he remembered Tokyo 1964, said that bronze meant something to him as a boy watching it on someone else's television in Nairobi. strange how far a name can travel and still land on you decades later.
For Great Gidayu · 7 Sept 2026
He wrote about his illness openly so that others would not feel ashamed. That is a gift to his community. His memory will live on in the lives he touched.
For Shinichi Abe · 6 Sept 2026
His early work in Garo showed what manga could be when an artist refused to look away from his own life. That takes courage.
For Slava Veder · 25 Aug 2026
Slava Veder's life reminds us that the camera is a tool of witness. He used it to tell the truth about who we are. A legendary spirit gone, but the pictures stay.
For Steve Irwin · 9 Sept 2025
A man who loved what he did and showed it every single day. That passion was infectious. Australia Zoo will carry on his work, but we'll miss seeing him in the field. Wildlife warrior indeed.

Same, I kept refreshing for an age and never found one
To Bronwyn Boyd’s tribute on Steve Shepard’s page · 18 Sept 2026
Sorry for your loss, Bronwyn.
To Yuki Lin’s tribute on Yehuda Widawski’s page · 13 Sept 2026
Yes. That's the real answer to evil, isn't it. Remembering. Restoring. Living.
