Webmaster received an e-mail on 24th January 2010 from Alan Westcob (Nicholson 1954-60):
I noticed with great sadness that Otto Jacobs (Nicholson 1954 -59) passed
away in 2009. An obituary appeared in the Kenya Regiment Buffalo Barua.
Otto was a prefect colleague of mine in Nicholson. We were great friends and I spent a memorable school holiday
with him in Kajiado where his dad was the District Officer. On one occasion we, in a reckless moment, decided to
play cat and mouse with an irate rhino in Amboseli. No harm was done other than a big gouge in the side of the
DO's vehicle where contact was made with the large horn. Suitable chastisement was meted out and I was sent packing
back to Nairobi for further chastisement from my parents! What we did for kicks in the old days!!
Regards
Alan Westcob
