My heart goes out to the family during this tough time. Also, my condolences go out to my friend, Peter Mugo aka Kaka, who introduced Alex to us just a year ago at Thanksgiving. Alex (in dreads) and Kaka have been long time friends since their childhood days in Buru Buru Estate. Death reminds us that our days are numbered and that we must make the best out of every day we are alive. R.I.P.
