Special note is made to Brian Kiragu and Kihiu Kiragu together with their friends in the USA for keeping vigil at the hospital during her last few days. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to all those friends in the diaspora who took time off their busy schedules to sit by her bedside and attend to her in the hour of need and who also donated generously to meet a significant part of the funeral expenses.

It is worth mentioning the Australian connections who greatly supported Mugure Kiragu and the family during this period.

Special compliments go to the local funeral organizing committee ably led by Professor J.H. Kimura. The sense of leadership displayed by Tony Mwangi, Julius Macharia, Judge Lee Muthoga, Eng. Daniel Njora, Mrs. Charity Muthoga and Bilha Maina amongst others could not be taken for granted.

Much appreciation goes to the Reverend Geoffrey Njenga of ACK — All Saints Cathedral for agreeing to grace the occasion at a short notice.

Many well wishers donated both material, time and prayers. As it is not possible to mention all of you by name or group, please accept our sincere gratitude for your immense support.

May Nancy lie in her eternal bliss.

It is now a month ago since his demise on 18th October, 2017.The entire Kilima family wishes to most sincerely thank all Friends, Relatives, Colleagues and all well wishers for your emotional and material support as we made arrangements and finally laid to rest our beloved father Mzee Gibson Kilima Mwawasi on 28th October, 2017 at his Mwaminjwa home in Tausa, Mbololo in Taita Taveta County.

It was indeed a moment of sorrow and profound sadness, but your presence, words, messages, hugs, and encouragement made it bearable.

There are those who knew him and interacted with him and there are those who knew us, but never met him or interacted with him. Well he was a great man and a great dad. Through your support he got a befitting send off.

May God bless all of you for your kindness.
