Dr. Rutaro has been a beloved husband, father, sibling, grandfather, uncle, cherished friend, and a great pillar of the community. He leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, generosity, and kindness.
He has led an accomplished life and leaves behind a legacy as having been the first person in Sub Saharan Africa to obtain a PhD in Computer Science. He believed in giving back and we believe that his measure of a life well-lived was in the lives he impacted and helped uplift.
His kindness was felt by everyone that met him, his generosity knew no bounds.
He has been a beacon of light in all our lives and his death leaves a void that can never be filled.
Dr. Rutaro will be dearly missed by his family, friends, and the community.
Today we celebrate a life well lived.
We will carry forward his legacy and he will forever be in our hearts.
