Your spirit will forever inspire and comfort us.
Welcome
Dear family, friends and colleagues,
It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our beloved Dr. Kituu Nyamai, who left us on 24 May 2026. Kituu was a man of extraordinary dedication — a skilled anaesthesiologist, a devoted father and grandfather, a committed Christian, and a gentle soul who gave his very best to everyone he served.
We have created this online tribute in his memory, where you are warmly invited to share your memories, photos, and messages of love.
This page is a space for all of us — family, friends, colleagues, and patients — to come together and celebrate the remarkable life he lived. Please feel free to share it with anyone who knew and loved Kituu.
Your memories and kind words will mean the world to his children — Ashley, Mitchelle, Gift, and Diana and granddaughter Lyana — and to the entire family.
“Be the best wherever you are.” —Dr. Kituu Nyamai
Rest in peace, Kituu. You will forever be in our hearts. 💜
With love,
The Nyamai Family

The Kenyatta National Hospital family journeyed to Kilungu Village, Makueni County on 6th June 2026, to bid a final farewell to one of its own; Dr. Kituu Nyamai, Consultant Paediatric Anaesthesiologist.
Leading the delegation, Ag. CEO Dr. Richard Lesiyampe, CBS, paid tribute to a doctor whose life was defined by service, compassion and quiet excellence. He described Dr. Nyamai as a dedicated healer who devoted his career to safeguarding the lives of children, often carrying the immense responsibility of their care with remarkable grace, humility and skill.
"Dr. Nyamai did not simply practise medicine; he gave hope to families in their most difficult moments and touched countless lives through his selfless service," the CEO noted.
As colleagues, friends and family gathered to celebrate his life, KNH remembered not only an exceptional clinician, but also a kind soul, a mentor and a cherished member of the hospital community whose legacy will continue to inspire generations of healthcare workers.
Farewell, Dr. Kituu Nyamai. Your healing hands may be at rest, but your impact will live on in the many lives you touched. Rest in eternal peace.

Forever in my heart Dr Nyamai

From Abed, Beth & Lenashe (neighbors)
The love, care, concern, and compassion he showed our family were far greater than we could ever have expected. He welcomed us with warmth, walked alongside us through life's seasons, and always made us feel valued and loved.
Soft-spoken yet firm, gentle yet wise, he had a way of offering counsel that was thoughtful, honest, and true. His words carried wisdom, and his guidance brought clarity and comfort when it was needed most. He taught by example, showing us the importance of kindness, integrity, faith, and service to others.
Today, we mourn not only the loss of a friend but also the loss of a father. The space he leaves behind can never truly be filled, and the weight of that loss rests heavily on our hearts. Yet even in our grief, we are profoundly grateful for the gift of having known him, loved him, and been loved by him.
You fought a good fight. Your work here is done, and you have earned your rest.
Though you are no longer with us, your love, wisdom, and the memories we shared will remain with us always. We will carry your legacy in our hearts and honour it in the lives we live.
Rest well, Dad.
You will always be remembered, always be loved, and never be forgotten.
Michael, Ninah, Ryan and Marie
Even when he was indisposed and battling his own health challenges, Dr. Nyamai’s caring nature never wavered. He consistently placed the needs of others above his own comfort, willingly sacrificing his rest and strength to check on people, offer encouragement, and provide support. His selfless heart moved him to respond with compassion even on difficult days, showing a rare and genuine love that deeply touched everyone around him.
He remained faithfully connected to the fellowship despite his health struggles and busy schedule. He touched many lives through his faith, generosity, gentle spirit, and constant willingness to support others whenever there was a need. He was a valued member of the fellowship, and he will be greatly missed by the Bible Study family.
Dr. Nyamai will forever remain in our hearts as a beautiful example of humble faith and selfless love. Our heartfelt condolences to his family, relatives, and friends. May the Lord comfort and strengthen his family with peace and hope during this sad bereavement season.

Through the farming spirit of Kituu and through the good farm management of his father, the Nyamai family has transformed livelihoods in the rural location in Makueni. This family has contributed to the food baskets of thousands of neighbors. As neighbors we are touched in the effort he put to support family farming. DR Kituu has left a mark hard to fill. He ran a good race, he kept the faith, Kituu is resting beside Jesus.
The loss of a parent is one of life's most difficult experiences, and no words can fully ease the pain that accompanies such a loss. During this period of grief and mourning, may you find comfort in the love and support of family, friends, and all those whose lives were touched by your father.
Dr. Nyamai will be remembered for his dedication, wisdom, kindness, and the positive impact he made on those around him. His contribution as a parent and member of the school community was greatly appreciated, and his legacy will continue to live on through the values he instilled in his children and the many lives he influenced.
As you navigate this painful journey, may cherished memories of the moments you shared with him bring you strength, comfort, and peace. Though he may no longer be physically present, the love, guidance, and lessons he imparted will remain with you forever.
On behalf of fellow parents, friends, and well-wishers, I convey sincere sympathies to your entire family. May God grant you courage, comfort your hearts, and surround you with His peace during this difficult time.
Fare thee well, Dr. Kituu Nyamai. Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure, and your legacy will endure in the hearts of all who knew you. May your soul rest in eternal peace.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Dota Mitchell, Gift, and the entire Nyamai family. 🕊️🙏🏾

And may Dr kit Rip Till the bright morning. Awaiting Jesus resurrection. your friend And parent from MFA

Our hearts are with you as you celebrate the life of Dr Kit and lay him to rest.
Though we never had the privilege of meeting him personally, we have been deeply moved by the story of a life so generously lived in service of others.
As an anaesthesiologist, he stood at the intersection of life, healing, and hope, helping countless patients through critical moments and bringing comfort to families in times of uncertainty. Through his many years with Operation Smile, he helped restore not only health, but also confidence, dignity, and countless smiles.
His legacy lives on in the many lives he touched, the patients he helped to heal, and the hope he brought to so many. Few people leave the world better than they found it; Dr Kit clearly did.
We pray that God, in His infinite mercy, will gently dull the pain of this loss, strengthen you as you journey these difficult days ahead, and surround you with His peace and comfort. May his remarkable life and service continue to inspire generations to come.
And may the memories of Kit’s extraordinary life and service remain a lasting source of pride and consolation.
May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Kituu was not only a committed member of our hiking community but also a wonderful friend and trail companion. I had the privilege of sharing several adventures with him, from Mount Kipipiri to Mount Kenya and the Annapurna Circuit Trek in Nepal in 2019.
One memory that stands out is when we climbed Mount Kenya via the Burguret Route. Having already done the more popular routes, Kituu specifically requested Burguret—the less-traveled path. It spoke volumes about his character: bold, adventurous, and always eager to explore beyond the obvious.
We also shared unforgettable moments paragliding over Phewa Lake in Pokhara and rafting on the Marsyangdi River. Through it all, he remained calm, spirited, and great company to be around.
Please accept my heartfelt condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Hike on, Daktari.

Dear Lilian,
I am deeply saddened by Kituu's passing.
I was fortunate to share many adventures with him—from Mount Kipipiri and Mount Kenya to the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. One of my fondest memories is when he requested that we use the less-traveled Burguret Route on Mount Kenya because he had already experienced the popular routes. That choice reflected who he was—bold, adventurous, and always seeking something more.
I will remember him as a calm, spirited soul and a wonderful trail companion. We shared many special moments in the mountains and beyond, including paragliding over Phewa Lake and rafting on the Marsyangdi River.
My heartfelt condolences to you and your family. May his memory continue to inspire all of us who were privileged to know him.
Hike on, Daktari.

May perpetual light shine upon your soul and may your soul rest in peace.

Forever in our memories dear friend.
Rest well in peace
His love for mountaineering was amazing, he kept laughing at me for taking the gondola instead of doing the hike.
Rest in power, heaven has definitely gained an angel.
I remember him as a quiet and pleasant and diligent soul. Although i did not interact with him often, i fondly remember bunping into him at Mater Hospital about 2 yrs ago and we had quiet some reminiscing to do and that was lovely. To the family may God embrace you tightly and keep you safe and give you peace. Rest in peace Dr Kit and dance with the angels eternally!
He was dedicated to his work. He prioritized general over private patients, service over monetary gain and quality over quantity of work.
He personally oppointed his mentee Dr Susan Kerubo Omundi to me as anaesthetist when he felt unwell.
We shared many hobbies like bee keeping and tree planting.
Condolences to his children and entire Mwania family.
Rest in peace brother.

We had a long time discussion about consevation which led to a tree planting exercise at his plot at Mua.We have also lost a great conservationist too.Poleni we've lost a Hero but we cannot blame God.Fare thee well Dr.🫡🫡
May God grant his soul eternal rest and peace. It is hard to accept that he is gone, but we take comfort in the legacy he leaves behind. He has rested in the Lord.



Dr Nyamai was a great tutor he taught me alot when he was on call in mater hospital theatre he was great with his passion of work I learnt alot. He was my anaesthetist when I had an emergency to delivery my child indeed he was my hero .It's hard to accept that you have gone to be with the Lord . May Ur soul rest in peace.
He was truly a blessing to the Siwaka/Madaraka Bible Study family and a rare soul whose presence will be greatly missed. I pray that God grants the family peace and hope during this difficult season.
When my mother was dying, he was the anaesthesiologist I trusted to care for her. In her final hours, Dr. Nyamae gave her dignity, gentleness, and compassion. He did everything he could for her, and for that, I will forever carry gratitude in my heart for him.
As doctors, we are trained to save lives. But sometimes the greatest thing we can offer is humanity in the face of loss and that is what Dr. Nyamai gave to many.
It is deeply painful to loose such a gentle gem.
May he rest peacefully, and may his family know how profoundly he touched the lives of many.
Dance with the angels, Sir... Rest easy 💔
Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Kenya Airways and the entire crew of flight KQ761, we wish to take a moment to honour a remarkable Kenyan who is travelling home with us today on his final flight.
We are carrying the remains of Dr. Kituu Nyamai — a dedicated paediatric anaesthesiologist from Kenyatta National Hospital, who devoted his life to the safety and care of children in surgery. Among his many contributions, he was part of the team that successfully separated conjoined twins, and he trained hundreds of anaesthesiologists across Kenya.
To his family on board — we are deeply sorry for your loss. As the pride of Africa we are honored to bring Dr. Nyamai home.
May he rest in eternal peace.
Losing such a wonderful person is truly painful. He was not only a great friend to me, but also a kind, supportive, and genuine soul whose presence brought joy and comfort to many lives. His memories, laughter, and friendship will forever remain in my heart.
May God grant you strength, peace, and comfort during this period of mourning. May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may the love and support of those around you give you courage in the days ahead.
Truly the world has lost a great man.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
May his soul rest in peace.

May God comfort your family and loved ones. He is a faithful God.
Rest in perfect peace doc.
Beyond the hospital walls, he was a loving father and a true friend to many families. His warmth, generosity, and humanity will forever remain in our hearts.
At this painful time, I pray that God grants strength, peace, and comfort to his family, friends, colleagues, and all of us whose lives he impacted. May we find courage in the beautiful memories he leaves behind, and may his soul rest in eternal peace.
You will be greatly missed, Baba Ashley,but never forgotten.
Alice and family
Non-controversial, a good listener and every word uttered softly, confidently and compassionately.
Great attention to detail and never impatient with students, patients or colleagues!
Fare thee well my friend!😂🙏💔
May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
You fought a long and courageous battle with remarkable strength and dignity. Although words cannot fully ease the pain of this loss, may God grant comfort, peace, and strength to Nyamai family and friends during this profoundly difficult time.
Rest in power brother.

This is trully painful but God has his ways. We have been colleagues in this profession together, parents together in All Saints, appraisal mates looking for same supervisor and sharing our targets. Your work ethics, care of patients, medical knowledge, will be remembered always. And our interactions will remain in my heart.
God speed.
