BBC reporter Larry Madowo has confessed that much as he has tried to, he can't fathom the pain Ken Okoth's widow is going through.
'When I am down Monica lifts me up. When she is down I lift her up. Ken Okoth told me this a few weeks ago.
He was so proud of her and she has been at his side all along. I can't imagine her pain and her loss.
During the memorial service held at Moi girls, Okoth's wife Monicah reminisced on the good times they had in a touching message below.
'Being Ken's wife was the greatest honour of my life.
He was the most intelligent, passionate, eloquent and most wonderful person I have ever met.
We have been to so many adventures, so many places together but his heart was always here.
