A Kenyan man has died in Sioux Falls, South Dakota from a brain aneurysm.

Phillip Mutinda died on March 4th, 2015, a day after he collapsed after his heart stopped beating and was taken to an Emergency Room in Sioux Falls.

On March 3rd after he was taken to the ER, he was able to breath again after extensive CPR but he remained unconscious. An MRI revealed that he had a brain aneurisym which had affected most of his brain. He was kept on life support in the ICU overnight but passed on the following morning.

His sister Dorcas Mutinda who lives in Chicago was on her way to see him but did not make it on time. She received a phone call that he had passed on early the following morning.

She now needs help to fly her brother’s body to Kenya where his mother is waiting for his burial. The expected cost is $10,000

Dorcas is the only sibling in the US and cannot be able to meet the expenses and she is asking for members of the community to assist her.

She also needs to accompany her brother’s body back home but this would need more funds..

The family anticipates the funeral to be held on 3/21/15, but that depends on how soon the family is able to raise funds to pay the company transporting him back home.

We are sad to announce the passing away of Tahshal Fletcher Kimani on May 19, 2015

Tahshal was born on May 14, 1980 in Toledo Ohio to her mother Gwen Nance and her late father Gerald Fletcher.

She is survived by her loving husband Kevin Kimani; her sisters Tara Nance and Teleya Fletcher; her Aunts Pearl Humphrey, Minnie Austin and Joyce Penn; her Uncles Gregg (Tammy) Fletcher,  and Daryl (Priscilla) Fletcher; special nieces Amaria and Shantel; nephews T.J, Omar and Tyler; special cousins Ta-kaira and Terrell Jr.; favorite cousin Ta-ta among other cousins; and a lot of special friends who graduated with Tahshal from World Harvest Bible College: Joy, Melissa, Scharita, Monique, Tina and Novella.

She was preceded in death by her father Gerald Fletcher; Uncle Terrell Nance and Grandmother Eva Nance.

On her husband’s side she is survived by parents in law Charles Kimani and Rosemary Kimani, her sisters Eva Kimani and Joan Kimani, and their brother Philip Kamau.

Tahshal graduated from Rogers High School in Toledo Ohio.

She also graduated from World Harvest Bible College in 2002 with a degree in Pastoral studies. Tahshal was always passionate about serving God in ministry and serving others with zeal and with a bright smile on her face.

Tahshal also worked for Bishop Thomas Weeks III at Global Destiny in Washington D.C in 2003 as his assistant. She also assisted both Bishop Weeks and Prophetess Juanita Bynum during the launch of the ‘Teach me how to love you’ marriage conference.

Tahshal moved to Houston TX in 2007 and worked for Bishop Shelton Bady at Harvest Time Church as the Director of Women’s Ministry.

Two years later in 2009, Tahshal moved to Dallas TX and became a member at her current church, Christ International Church located in Irving. She served the senior pastor, Dr Lufile Ehambe and the First Lady pastor Fariala Ehambe as the church administrator. She loved her ministry duties at the church, and she served and helped everyone delightfully, with a smile on her face.

It is at Christ International Church that Tahshal met her loving husband Kevin Kimani. They got married on November 19, 2011 in Toledo Ohio.

Tahshal graduated with a Bachelors degree in General Studies at Texas Woman’s University located in Denton TX in August 2013.

Tahshal also travelled to Kenya with her husband Kevin from December 2013 to January 2014 to visit with her husband’s family. She really loved Kenya and made lots of friends. All the in-laws and relatives in Kenya loved her so much. She and her husband went on a three day safari at one of the world’s most exclusive reserves, the Masai Mara. She enjoyed the scenery, the animals, and witnessed the spectacular sight of lions enjoying their morning breakfast –a huge buffalo that they had hunted and killed.

Tahshal also received a certificate from the International Business School of Finance and Economics at Yunnan University, located in China. She received this certificate after participating at the University of North Texas and Yunnan University joint cultural and educational exchange in 2014 in China. Tahshal enjoyed being a cultural exchange student in China. She loved the Chinese people and made lots of friends, and one of her future goals was to return to China and help the poor.

Tahshal also graduated with a Masters of Arts in Sociology on May 8, 2015 at Texas Woman’s University.

Tahshal Fletcher Kimani was an inspiration to so many people. She loved serving the Almighty God and the people of God. She had a positive impact to all who met her. She was a true servant of God at heart, and will be greatly missed by all.

Tahshal went to be with the Lord Jesus Christ on May 19, 2015. We thank God for the life and joy of knowing Tahshal.

Job 1: 21 states that: ‘The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.’

There will be two memorial services on May 23^rd  2015 at 7pm at Christ International Church located at 1104 Luke St, Irving, TX 75061 and the 2^nd one on May 30^th at 6.30pm at the same location where a fundraise to help ease the medical and funeral expenses will also take place.  Our dear Tahshal will be laid to rest in Toledo Ohio on June 6^th.

We regret to announce the death of Hannah Wambui (Annie) who passed away on the morning of 5/26/2015.

Annie had a brain aneurysm three years ago in part caused by a condition she had known as lupus.
However after three years yesterday at 5 am, she passed away quietly at the rehabilitation hospital in Las Vegas, NV.
Hannah was only 25 years old.

She had the biggest heart and was one of the kindest, best people anyone would know. Heaven must truly have needed another angel.
She will be missed not just by her family but by me, close friends and this community at large.
Official prayers have not been organized yet and we will let u know as soon as we receive the information.
For now this family needs both emotional and financial support. Hannah will be laid to rest here in Las Vegas down the line so lots of preparation towards that for now.
For now starting yesterday May 26th you can drop at her parents place as they have taken leave and are at home at 2309 Reddon circle Las Vegas, Nevada 89128. The major cross streets are Buffalo and West Lake mead.

However if most people are working and can only go in the evening after say 5 pm until midnight , you are welcome to go then too.
More info will trickle down the line and we’ll keep you posted. For now let’s all be our brothers and sisters keepers and check on this family as they go through this extremely hard time.

Be blessed!
