I wonder if it would be prudent to have the mbuzi on the day of his funeral. It would be better to join his family and friends if possible. Its the African and christian way of doing it. I remember the F&F being concerned that he may not have somebody to "cry for him" once he dies. Lord, thank you!

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (New International Version)
Believers Who Have Died
Wazuans ,friends and relatives of F&F :
13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.
14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep.
16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.
RIP Fast and Furious

OK, then we can't have mbuzi on this day. Am also sure he's in the DN album, whats his full name we look up for more details there? I'd personally love to attend the memorial service if not the burial, as well as send contrition via the no. provided above by wendz..

Keep it here. For the good souls, wait for the rare find. We will stop this thread when it heats 1000 posts. So Wendz, do not mutate this thread. The Fast & Furious started it, keep it going. Wisdom to detect when share prices hit rock bottom.
When interest on bonds keep going up, you know the bear run is on high street. When interest on bonds start leveling, the bear has met the bull and they have hit rock bottom. When the interest rates on bonds start coming down, the bull has overpowered the bear and you better be riding the bull.

Wendz wrote:People, dont just peep... say something Okay, I have been peeping for long. As far as length does not slow down your computer, why disconnect F&F's story. Let the story grow in unison. Those who have not been following the thread would not understand what went on and the new thread will not have any impact. @Wendz Ever heard of the dead attempting to communicate with the living through a computer? Mybe F&F had a more advanced reason to remain connected to the internet. Never underestimate the power of love, we might be staring at a saint in the making.

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.
