KIPUSI, Lemiso ole
KIPUSI - In loving memory of my late husband, Lemiso ole Kipusi, passed away April 19, 1997.
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, though hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Three years since you suddenly left us, but for ever engraved in our hearts. Sadly missed by your wife, Wambui and children
SOMERTON, Maude I.
SOMERTON, Maude I. - In loving memory of my dear mother who passed away April 19, 1999.
Your loving heart stopped beating, One year ago today,
With good-byes left unspoken, You suddenly passed away.
God has you in His keeping, I knew that from the start,
But you and your memory, Will always remain in my heart.
Forever loved and missed by daughter Mary, son-in-law Donnie and grandchildren David and Lisa.
