Eunice Njoki Thumbi

2nd Anniversary

Two years have passed since you left us for your heavenly abode, yet it seems just as yesterday. For us you were the light of our lives, a beacon of love, kindness and unwavering strength Not a day passes without us thinking of you and though time will soften the edges of our grief, the void you left in our hearts can never be filled.

As we remember you today, we reflect the countless beautiful memories we shared. Your gentle smile and comforting words are treasures we hold close to our hearts.

You are dearly missed by your husband, children, grandchildren, friends and relatives.

The family deeply appreciates the continued support and love received from the church, family members, friends and all our social welfare groups.

“If we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord; So then, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.” Roman’s 1
