Not sure what to say?

Just discovered today of the passing of professor Micere Mugo and mourn her loss. I knew her as a graduate student and was embraced throughout my career. She was my big sister and much loved. May she find warmth among the ancestors and may God bring you peace.

It is with great sadness that I could not say goodbye to such a lovely woman. She was my teacher and impacted my life to the point that I write this. May God embrace her as she is now an ancestor. Peace and Love.

Professor Mugo REST IN PERFECT PEACE; MAY YOUR DAUGHTER BE AT PEACE WITH YOUR PASSING>

What a beautiful, graceful, giving, polite, engaging, and charismatic woman. She will be sorely missed. I was always happy to see her as I walked across campus to class at Syracuse University. My sincere condolences to family and friends. May her spirit fill all with warmth and love. Cherish one another.

Sorry for the loss, it is well we shall meet in the beautiful Shore Prof. I used to hear my teachers fondly talk about you especially English and Literature. It's sad I had no chance to meet you but I have met you spiritually. Rest easy

Professor Micere Mugu was an educator who had the most impactful and lasting impact on me as a learner. As a student at St. Lawrence University in the early 80's, I had the honor of inhabiting her classrooms and living rooms. Her revolutionary love and philosophy is something that has been imbedded into my core.

My name is Mary Bassett. Professor Mugo was my neighbor and friend in Zimbabwe in the 1980s. I am so sorry to learn of her passing. She was unwavering in her commitment to a world in which people come before profit. Everywhere she went she conveyed the honor and dignity of a value-driven life. She inspired many. Mumbi was my daughter´s first babysitter and to her and the entire expended family I offer my sincere condolences.

Dearest Mumbi-I am so terribly sorry to learn of the loss of your amazing Mother. I will never forget hers and your kindness several years ago when our mothers were roomates at Crouse Hospital. My thoughts, prayers and love are with you at this most difficult time.

Thoughts & Prayers to your family. The Amoah family
