It is with extremely heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of the double tragedy of the deaths of Kathleen (Kay/Kathy) Murugu on December 27, 2023, and her sister Fredah Murugu on Dec 29, 2023 in Kenya.
Kay was based in Washington DC (USA) and is the loving mother to Gwendolyn, the late Bobby, and Makena Murugu (all of USA). Fredah was based in Kenya and is the loving mother to Roy, Xenia, Eli (all of Kenya) and Zoe (Australia).
Kay and Fredah are the sisters of Andrew Murugu (Kenya), the late Alfred Murugu, the late Edith Murugu (Kenya), the late Juliette Murugu (Kenya), the late Jane Anne & Hiram Kiragu (USA), the late June Carol & Albert Sasu (USA). (USA). They also had several nieces and nephews amongst many other relatives.
Kay and Fredah were the rock of the family and were close sisters in age and in heart. They were both fun, outgoing, strong, resilient, and bright spirits. Kay was extra loving, generous, outgoing, fun and exuberant.
Her warmth, bright smile, high energy, compassion and genuine interest in people was contagious and endeared so many to her.
