The emotional service was held at the International Christian Center (ICC) in Nairobi on Friday, January 23, and was attended by friends and family.

The children died just days before returning to the United States after enjoying their December vacation in Kenya.
Social media users are mourning DeLeon’s children
Social media users were deeply moved by the emotional photos and filled the comments section with messages of condolence.
Mack HarvesterSometimes you wonder what this calculation called life really is. You become a mother and for a short time you are childless. Only God can comfort the family. Sorry is not enough.”
Maks Makeh “It hurts the heart. I’m so sorry. I pray that whoever is reading this, may God grant you to live and raise your children until old age. May we never bury them, but let them be blessed at the right time. May God hear and answer our silent prayers and remove the constant fears we have… the fear of the unknown because we live on loan. Amen.”
Mary MmayiNot even one would be left. Poor girl. How can that wound be healed except by God himself. The book of 1 Corinthians says… no trial has befallen us that has not befallen others… but God provides a way to escape. Take heart in the Lord.”
Mary Wanjiru:I can understand that moment, it’s so painful, it’s unbearable, it still feels like yesterday. It hurts a lot. May God of mercy only give them strength and comfort because nothing and no one can take away that pain.”
Joel Odundo: “Times like these can completely break the heart and completely change the perspective of life and the world. May God give you comfort, strength and peace in this period of pain. May the God of Job remember this family.”
Mr. Rodgers: “Sometimes the journey of life is very difficult, the old image is closed but the pain does not last. We ask for comfort and hope.”
Maureen Timnar: “I have no strength for this. God, only you can comfort this family. We cannot question you God, this is your life, we are your people. Have mercy, Lord.”
