Lawyer Paul Gicheru's wife, Ruth Nyambura in an emotional tribute, narrated the last moments with her husband before he passed away on September 26.
Speaking during the requiem mass held in Karen on Tuesday, October 4, Nyambura stated that the deceased held her hand and affirmed his love for her, hours before his death.
"On Monday before you went to be with the Lord, you held my hand and said to me 'Nobody will ever separate us'.
"Very unexpected at that moment," she eulogised.
Further, she described the husband as a loving man who took care of their three children and their extended family.
Nyambura stated that his demise shocked them as no one was expecting him to meet his untimely death on that fateful day.
"Oh, how the blessings of our three great sons brought us joy and warmed our hearts. They will miss you so much.
"You always taught them that there are three things to fear and respect - God, our parents and the government of the day. We shall always remember this," she stated.
On their part, Gicheru's children Alvin, Alex and Annan eulogised their father as the hero who always helped them face their obstacles.
"You have always prepared us by giving us the best of everything good. We will miss you dearly and treasure all our memories together. You will always be with us in everything that we do.
"We love you done and hope to see you again," read their tribute.
Gicheru was found dead at his Karen residence on Monday, September 26. Investigations into his death are underway.
A postmortem conducted on Friday last week was inconclusive, prompting the pathologist to take more samples to the government chemist for a detailed analysis.
