So far, through Diasporamessenger.com, we have been able to identify one close relative living in Worcester Massachusetts, a Mr. Murigi Wa Murunyu who have helped to contact the family in Kenya.

According to detective Mike of Omaha Police Department, there was no foul play in Stephen’s death and they think that he died of natural causes.

Stephen Kimiri Kuria came to the US in 2000 and has not had much communication with his family, he also has no known friends in the US. He left behind two children, Wesley Kuria and Cynthia Wangare who are all in Kenya.

The family’s wish in Kenya is for Stephen’s body to be repatriated order for them to have a closure. Kenyans in Nebraska and the neighboring States are requested to help in organizing how the body can be shipped to Kenya to honor the wishes of the family.
