In Memoriam: Elsie Maciel

 




Today (March 13) marks five years since my darling Els left us without a chance to share a final embrace because of Covid.

 She remains in our memory forever and this photo taken at Njoro with our then young son, Andrew (he’s in his 60’s now!) shows Els with the trout she landed not far from home!
Memories - with love

Mervyn
