Daystar University led by the Chancellor and the Vice Chancellor assisted in many ways. Their tributes from local and overseas Daystar fraternity make unusually good reading. They expressed great appreciation of Mrs Wairimu Nyoike.

Youth For Christ International and YFC Kenya produced priceless tributes. They showed great appreciation for Wairimu’s over 25 years of service to Youth For Christ International.

Special thanks to the Nursing fraternity, working very closely with other medical professionals based at Kenyatta National Hospital. We must mention the Chair of Nursing Council of Kenya, the Chair of National Nurses Association and the Nurse Esther Kiragu and officials of the Nightingale Association who coordinated the beautiful uniformed Nurses tributes. We were overwhelmed. Posthumously, we acknowledge the poem read by Dr John Gatu. He and all of us did not know that Wairimu’s Memorial Service was Dr Gatu’s last function on earth. He died a few days later.

It would never have been possible without all of you. We simply love you and appreciate all of you.

To God be the Glory. Amen
