I am deeply sad about his death . He was very simple , graceful and peaceful personality . I always enjoyed his company and he always showed the dignity in his presence. I have and will always admire him for all his qualities . I have learned lots from him. He had shared with me his hardship he faced and journey from india on ship to kenya , I will always remember his memories. I salute him for his courage , patience and good teachings he has given to all his kids . Baji will be in my thoughts through-out my life . I pray for his peace for his soul .
