The family of the Kenyan woman Hellen Wendy Nyabuto who drowned in a pool in Canada has so far been able to raise at least 48,925 Canadian dollars( 5,863,661)to help bring her remains back home.
The family was targeting to raise Sh4.6 million (50,000 Canadian dollars). Hellen Wendy was recording a live video on her Facebook account while enjoying her afternoon after work.
According to Enock Nyabuto, Wendy’s brother she always lifted the spirit of everyone she came into contact with.
On the day of her demise,Wendy was exchanging a conversation with friends through her Facebook page moments after she hopped into the pool.
“Hi there, how are you? It’s two o’clock here, I have just arrived home from work… I am doing okay, just having some fun,” Wendy remarked.
Dressed in a fancy colored swimming costume,Wendy looked happy and vibrant as she engaged her friends in a chit-chat.
She was diving from one point of the swimming pool to the other and returning back to the edge of the pool to respond to messages from her friends who were watching the live session.
In the 10th minute, she took the final leap into what appeared like the pool’s deep end.
She then started gasping for air as she cried for help screaming to swim away from the danger zone. At exactly 11:54, she made the last sound before it all went silent.
Wendy’s live session went on for 3 hours before some people came and rescued her.
Her dad has described her as a hard working girl who will be deeply missed by her family.

🌿 In God’s Gentle Arms – For Hellen Wendy 🌿
You walked this earth with grace so pure,
A tender heart, a spirit sure.
And though your stay was brief, not long,
Your faith in God remained so strong.
When waters stilled and sorrow came,
We whispered softly Jesus’ name.
For in that moment, heaven knew
An angel’s journey was coming through.
God opened wide His loving gate,
Not a second early, not one late.
He called you home to peaceful rest,
To cradle you upon His breast.
Now in His light you softly shine,
A soul redeemed, a love divine.
We trust His will, though hearts may break,
For God gives strength no pain can shake.
Your memory lives, your spirit stays,
Guiding us through earthly days.
Till one bright dawn, with joy we’ll see
You standing where the saints will be.
Rest, Hellen, in God’s embrace so deep—
In His eternal love you sleep. 🌸
