Appreciation

The family of the late Mrs.Teresa Njoki Gachiri, beloved wife of Major Dr. Joseph R. Gachiri, wishes to express our deepest gratitude to the Almighty God for His grace and strength during this difficult period. It is through His mercy that we have been able to walk this journey and to accord our dear Teresa a befitting send-off.

The Church: We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Church for the immense spiritual support, prayers, and guidance given to us throughout the funeral process. In particular, we thank the priests of St. Austin’s Parish, led by Father George and Father Henry, who participated fully during the Requiem Mass held on Wednesday, 13th August 2025, at St. Austin’s Catholic Parish. Your presence and ministry uplifted us and reminded us of God’s enduring love. Special thanks go to Father Ignatius, who faithfully walked with Teresa spiritually for four years. He provided her with the Sacrament of the Eucharist every week without fail.Your humility, spirituality, and steadfast faith gave Teresa the strength to endure her illness without ever losing faith in God. We also sincerely thank the Catholic Women’s Association of St. Austin’s Parish, who walked with Teresa throughout her illness and made regular visits to her home in Lavington.Your companionship and love assured her that she was never alone. To the Youth Choir of St. Austin’s Parish, who participated fully during both the Requiem Mass and the funeral service at our home in Kinangop – your angelic voices lifted our hearts and reminded us of the joy of eternal life.

Medical Fraternity: To the doctors, nurses, and support staff who took care of Teresa during her illness, we extend our heartfelt thanks. In particular, we recognise the Nairobi Hospital Renal Unit and the many physicians at Nairobi Hospital who attended to Teresa with dedication and compassion. We ask the Almighty to continue blessing you with the spirit of love, kindness, and compassion in your noble service to patients.

Muthoni’s Chama: Special thanks go to my daughter Muthoni’s Chama. This group of young women stood with our family throughout the entire period of Teresa’s illness, They were by our side every step of the way – more than friends, they truly became family.Their organisational skills during the planning and preparation for Teresa’s send-off were world-class.

Appreciation: As a family, we promise to stand with them in both good times and in challenging times, just as they have stood with us.

It is not possible to mention each and everyone who has held our hands during this most difficult time, but kindly take this message as our heartfelt way of saying thank you. Your words of comfort, prayers, visits, and acts of generosity lightened our burden and gave us strength when we needed it most.

Final Thanks: Finally, to each and every person who attended the funeral at our home in North Kinangop, whether in person or in spirit, we thank you. Your presence was a great source of comfort and a true celebration of Teresa’s life. May the Lord richly bless you all.
