I will fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”

Obituary

It is with profound humility, deep faith, and immeasurable sorrow that we announce the passing of Caesar Mijoro Ger, a beloved son, brother, uncle, husband, cousin, and friend. Caesar was born on September 28, 1972, to Dr. Samson Auma Mijoro of Kenya and Ger Ocholla of Maryland, USA.

Caesar was the cherished grandson of the late Semo Mijoro, the late Rueben Ger, and the late Joyce Owenga Ger. He was the nephew of the late Judith Awiti, the late Tom Nyanjom, Nelly Jaoko, John Osawo, Dr. Jim Ger, and Morris Ogola, among many others who shaped his life and loved him dearly. He is survived by many beloved cousins, including Pamela Achieng, Achienge Jaoko, Caleb Jaoko, Esq., Dr. Stephen Nyanjom, Lillian Mijoro, Esq., and countless others whose hearts now carry the weight of his absence.

Caesar was a man whose life reflected resilience, generosity, courage, and joy. He married Nycole Ger and was a devoted brother to Dr. Michele Harrell and Stephen Gonna, as well as a cherished uncle to Nathan Harrell and Makayla Harrell, all of whom reside in Maryland, USA. Family was the center of Caesar’s world. His presence brought warmth, protection, and laughter—an unmistakable steadiness that made others feel safe, seen, and deeply loved.

Those closest to Caesar remember him not only for his accomplishments, but for the quiet strength of his character. His second cousin Laura Nyanjom of Maryland fondly recalls, “Caesar was my bodyguard,” a simple yet powerful reflection of his instinct to protect and stand watch over those he loved. His second cousin Audrey Owour of Texas remembers him as “so special—this is tough,” words that echo the collective grief of a family mourning a loss too heavy for language. His grand-aunt, Margaret Owour of Allentown, Pennsylvania, remembers Caesar as “a special soul,” affirming the rare gentleness and grace that defined his spirit.

Caesar’s formative years were spent in Kenya, where he attended Muthaiga Primary School, followed by Jamhuri High School and Laiser Hill Academy. He later pursued legal studies at the University of Nairobi, demonstrating early intellectual rigor and a deep sense of justice. He subsequently moved to Namibia, where he attended the University of Namibia, studying engineering for two years before migrating to the United States. In the U.S., he continued his education in computer science, reflecting his intellectual curiosity, adaptability, and lifelong commitment to growth.

Beyond academics, Caesar was an accomplished and respected rugby player, whose athletic legacy left an enduring mark on Kenyan rugby. Playing primarily as a fullback, he represented Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB), Mwamba RFC, Mean Machine, Kenya Harlequin, and Nondescript (Nondies). Known for his speed, discipline, and fearless style of play, Caesar competed with heart and integrity. Rugby was not merely a sport to him; it was an expression of teamwork, courage, loyalty, and brotherhood.

Caesar touched countless lives. He was known for his jovial spirit—often the light of any gathering—and for a generosity that knew no bounds, willingly giving his last dollar, his time, or his strength to anyone in need. He walked gently through this world, seeking peace, extending grace, and carrying burdens for others without ever asking for recognition.

Though his passing is a devastating shock, we cling to the promise of God’s Word:

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,
who comforts us in all our troubles.”
— 2 Corinthians 1:3–4

As we journey through this painful valley of loss, we take comfort in knowing that Caesar now rests in eternal peace—held in the loving arms of the God who created him, walked with him, and has now called him home.

Closing

May his memory forever be a blessing, and may we honor his life by living with the same generosity, courage, humility, and love that he so freely gave to others.

🕊️ Rest well, Caesar Mijoro Ger. You will forever remain in our hearts.
