Dear Friends. There comes a time when all that we are in the life today becomes but a physical stepping stone to the spiritual abode that waits ahead. Such a time has come for our very own Chris Musyoka Kiliko.

Chris as many knew him was involved in a fatal car accident on 1st March 2016 at 6am in Kent, Washington. He perished at the scene. He is survived by his lovely wife Caroline and 2 beautiful twin girls Madison and Cheryl (4yrs).

Those who new him can attest to him being a caring, loving and generous friend. Indeed this is a major blow to his young family of three, his friends here as well as to his family back home in Kenya. Theyve lost a father, a husband, a son, a brother and a friend.

His body is currently rested at the Edward’s memorial Funeral Home in Tacoma, Washington awaiting his final journey to Kenya.
In preparation for this very difficult journey home to Kenya (both emotionally and financially), we are standing in the gap as friends for Chris’s and family and appealing for support to this bereaved family at this very difficult moment.

Kindly donate to help his family cover funeral costs and other related expenses. Feel free to also leave a condolence message.

May God Bless you as you become a Blessing to them.
