We sincerely thank our relatives, friends, neighbours, and colleagues for the overwhelming support accorded to us during his illness, passing, and funeral arrangements. We are deeply grateful for your prayers, visits, messages of condolence, words of encouragement, financial and material contributions, and for standing with us in solidarity.

We especially appreciate Central Memorial Hospital, Thika for the care given to dad, the organising committee chaired by Mr. Ngunjiri, the KBC fraternity in their entirety, the clergy, friends, family, and members for their spiritual nourishment, fellowship, and unwavering support. Your comfort and ministry to the family have been a great source of strength.

To all who travelled from near and far, organized meetings, attended services, sent floral tributes, and in various ways showed us overpouring love — we say thank you. Though we may not mention each one of you by name, kindly accept this message as our sincere appreciation.

May the Almighty God bless you abundantly and meet you at your every point of need.
