It is the most painful thing ever for a parent to bury their child. In natural law, it should be the other way round.

A mother of one of the students who perished in the Moi Girls High School dormitory fire has penned a heart-wrenching tribute to her daughter.

The tribute has gone viral.

Nachami Lemerelle's daughter lost her life in the arson caused by an alleged suicidal student. She took to Facebook to post a tribute.

It read:

"My Angel, My precious jewel, perfect gift sent from heaven and now taken back to heaven. I LOVE you, I TREASURE you, I MISS you. God gave me the best child, the most beautiful girl in the whole world, the most obedient, most loving, kind, caring................ I will forever cherish our moments together!" she wrote.

Adding, "Jey baby I shared my dreams with you, I mentioned to you all my heart desires but you know what my princess all those desires are now behind my back. I now have only ONE desire; TO GO TO HEAVEN because I know that's where you are and because I want to see you again, pray for me I come to heaven and reunite with you my only daughter. RIP my Princess till we meet again!"
