Hello. It was with much regret, but I humbly appreciate any assistance to help get my wife, Lucelle, travel expenses to fly from the US to Nairobi, Kenya, to bury her father, Joseph Muchiri.

Joseph recently got pneumonia during work, as he works outdoors, when Nairobi was experiencing a lot of rain and overall bad weather. Unfortunately, doctors in Kenya are on strike, and we could not get him the proper care he needed to survive.

He had pre-existing health conditions for years, and he was holding on to finally see us all, as a family, in person, and most importantly, see his grand daughter for the first time. We believe this completed him and is now able to peacefully move on.

As a family, we had just spent almost 10k traveling to Kenya to visit. We had just got back from the trip 2 weeks ago.

This gofundme is to help pay for last minute travel expenses and lost wages from work as she has to take FMLA. Flying from Arizona to East Africa is incredibly expensive.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I am forever in your debt!
