Great... will keep it here..... And it is looong... thanks to @Mcreg

Now, for those of us who were lucky to know F&F (i keep typing his nickname by mistake) we knew him as a guy with a golden heart. I know he had a run with @Mukiha at some point but was surprised actually that he actually went all out on that. Well, having said that, and since @Mcreg asked to know alittle more details, i will mention a few of them.

F&F intentionally started this post to save a soul here in Wazua. that is how much he appreciated all of us. Most guys who actually believe that F&F may have lived on fast lane as he mentioned. You will be surprised that F&F never indulged in alcohol. He didnt live in fast lane even when he was in college. Infact, he was so conscious of his diet that he whenever he met with friends, he would drink juice. he went to gym religiously, he as a "sucker" of eating well. I remember we teased him on the same one time we met at a restaurant. A jolly, talkative, veeeeeery talkative... a real marketer if i may say.

There is this wazuan(allow me not to dig back into the thread for the name) who was so convinced something did not add up because he/she/it had met F&F previously at the Mbuzi at the Hutch and he was clearly not 28. yes, you were right. he was not 28. However, the people he met during the period he was ailing were on average that age. They were in the same situation because of their lifestyle. they drank too much - hard drinks especially. He thought he should coin it in a way that he would pass across the message to this group who had a chance to do something about it and also given that majority of the people in wazua are on average, that age.

F&F has a family. Yes, a loving family. A very young family with the last born being only 2 years old. But as i had mentioned, he had a target group that he was passing the message to. usually, majority of this target group these days in kenya does not have their own families and so he had to put himself as one of the group to be understood.

However, as he put it, the details about his illness were exactly as he experienced them so i will not get into that. Needless to say, his condition has set the family many many miles back financially but as we know, we'd rather die trying than give up on health... so we all urged him on - everybody did. in any case, what is more important than life? Unfortunately, he did not live to prove the doctors wrong...

Given this situation, his close friends have agreed to set up an education fund for his children which will be hosted at CFC Stanbic and the funds drive is running simultaneously with burial arrangements.

How can we come in as Wazua family?

My suggestions would be

1. We can still meet up on 20th and do our mini funds drive towards the children's school fees fund because i think that would be very critical and then get a representative who can submit the same for us as his friends in Wazua.

2. Send our contributions for the burial arrangements as we had discussed on the number given on an earlier post which can be handed over to the committee organising for the burial.

3. join the rest of the group at the meetings and make contributions individually - its next to dove cage(i need to get that restaurant's name correctly - but i know there are other close friends here so please help this old lady)

4. other suggestions from Wazua...

From my list, i would go with the first option... I think this would touch him from far and beyond the clouds.... - my thinking.

As of this morning, i had not received any contributions that is why i have not posted. will check again over lunchtime and put here any updates.

Pole Wendz and all who knew F&F personaly... it must have hurt you so much when F&F started it and we all thot it was a Joke
Did you post an Mpesa number?

Finally there is a line that we as wazua family can use to send our contributions for F&F's arrangements. This is 0716 542 109. It is a safaricom line.

Eish....am confused, between F&F memoirs & what wendz has put across, so it wasn't true what he shared with us to gain our empathy? & the wealth part?? All in all, my condolences to the family.

I notice you've been in SK and wazua since 08. Am sure you know how we give our stories.... like either ' a friend of mine' or ' my neighbour' or "me" but without "full" details to avoid full exposure to everyone..... May be if we met all the people in wazua, we'd be shocked at who are behind the screen.... like, guka could actually be 24 or may be 89... who knows? Am sure, for those who would have been privileged enough to meet him at the Mbuzi this Thursday, would have heard it first hand.

Ninguhetuka na mundu!!...Me at 24?
