While taking to his twitter account to mourn his father, Hon John Kiarie described his dad as a lion who battled with cancer until its final blow.
The Lion has rested.
Dark, dark hour.
As the 3 o’clock late afternoon sun battled with a stubborn dark cloud, for superiority in the skies, a stubborn dark cancer struck a final mortal blow. Death is so final, it is unbelievable.
Grief pierces to the core.
