It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Mrs Helen Jepkoech Cheramboss (OGW), Lay Canon ACK Eldoretl Kapsabet Diocese and retired Senior Chief Principal of Moi Girls High School, Eldoret (Chebo Kap Omoet).

As a family, we acknowledge that mum belonged to more than just us. She was an aunt, a sister, sister-in-law,a daughter, a grandmother, great grandmother and a guardian to so many. She was a teacher, a colleague, a confidant and a mentor to multitudes. Above all, mum was a prayer warrior, and a woman of tremendous faith. It is through her journey in Christ that she became a pillar of strength and influence in the community. Mum’s impact cannot be summarized in words, she left a mark in everyone who passed through her loving and nurturing hands. Through her, talents were realized, dreams were achieved and lives were moulded.
There will be a memorial service at St. Matthews cathedral on Monday 10th August at 11:00am.
Her funeral service will be held on Tuesday 11th August 2020 at 8.00 a.m and thereafter, our dear mum will be laid to rest at home.
Heaven has truly gained a soul whose love and kindness still reverberates here on earth.
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
Rest In Peace Mama.
I wish to convey my condolences to the family of Commandant Cheramboss for the loss of Madam Helen may her soul rest in eternal peace. May she meet her creator whom she so served diligently and dedicatedly .
