We thank you all for firmly standing with us during the mourning period and also during the final interment of Esther. We acknowledge the humbling spiritual, moral and material support and also consoling messages, tributes, testimonies and prayers.

We thank the committees – Ainabkoi, Eldoret, Nakuru and Nairobi – that put together resources and also organized Kogo Esther befitting send off.

We thank the Governor of Uasin Gishu County, Ainabkoi Constituency MP and other leaders for their assistance and support.
