“My brother loved his roots as every chance he got, he would travel with his family to our rural home in Masvingo. Most of all, he loved his children and his wife and would go an extra mile to send them to school. To him, education was everything,” he said.
He thanked everyone who contributed towards his brother’s funeral.
