A note from the family:

Our father fondly remembered everyone and you all were in his prayers and thoughts. His heart was always in Zambia and he cherished the life he built their for his family. He has joined our mother in heaven whom he loved dearly - a marriage made in heaven. He greatly missed our mother and is now joining her. They both loved their children and grandchildren deeply and we are blessed to have had them as our parents. May his soul rest in peace and from them both 'God bless you all'.
