Flamboyant city lawyer Donald Kipkorir has joined Kenyans in mourning the untimely death of PR Guru and media personality Lorna Irungu.

Lorna, who had been battling lupus for years, succumbed to covid-19 complications.

Through his social media, Kipkorir shared how he met Lorna 25 years ago and formed a life long friendship with her.

'About 25 Years ago, Lorna Irungu & I met perchance at Mombasa Airport & we fell in love with each other .. We remained BFFs & she became my client since.

I begun attending all her plays at Phoenix where she was an actor with Ian Mbugua.

Then she married Edwin Macharia, CEO, Dalberg Global, One of Kenya’s brightest people. Last month, she invited me to her house for lunch.

When I heard she went to be with the Lord today, I wept. We adored each other without reservations & without judgment on our foibles. May the Lord take her to His bosom. May Edwin Macharia be at peace.

Lorna has been battling Lupus and kidney failure for over 10 years. She also underwent three 3 kidney transplants within 15 years.

She has left behind a loving daughter and a doting husband.

May she rest in perfect peace and may her family find the grace to accept the loss.
