Kenyans led by celebs and politicians went on social media platforms to condole with Nairobi Women Rep Esther Passaris after she announced that she had lost her dad.
MP Passaris dad passed on 21st January in 2022 at the age of 79 years old.
The heartbroken politician penned the below message on learning the death of her dad
A part of me has died today. The heavens opened and ended my father’s suffering.
A naval architect by profession, my dad achieved a lot in his 79 years. From building the first ship in Kenya – the ‘MV Mwewe’ that sailed across the East African coast – to coaching and mentoring the young men of Ngome Football Club in Mombasa.
Dad worked for Southern Engineering Company Limited, COMARCO, before incorporating HELMACO, which he led until retirement
Looking back, none of his achievements compare to the family man that he was; a loving husband to my mother, an incredible dad to his five children and a doting Papou (grandfather) to his 9 grand children.
God was his anchor; gratitude his motto, protection over his family and country his prayer.
Though heartbroken, it is well with my soul.
