On Tuesday, December 21st, Amber Ray laid her best friend Sally Wangechi to rest accompanied by the deceased's family and friends in an emotional ceremony.

Following the loss of someone she viewed as her sister, Amber Ray says it dawned on her that we are all on the same journey and before she departs this earth she will live life to the fullest. 

She says she 'will live like I have never before' because when she will be gone she will be forgotten.

She wrote; My biggest lesson from losing someone close to me is; You cannot lose what you didn’t have in the first place. A life lost is life itself reminding you that even though you are also on your way out, you are still here! I am still here!

Amber further added; Now I will live like I have never before because I know now that I will one day be gone and in time forgotten by most.In the meantime, nitawasumbua in ways even I don’t yet understand. But first, let me get my skin back on track ….

The mother of one vowed to live even for those who cannot and make her life and her presence count.
