Georgina Aluoch has finally been laid to rest next to her father and other siblings at their rural home in Migori county as per her mum’s instructions. How did Kenyans help Aluoch, Joyce? Aluoch, who was a Form Three student at the Alliance Girls High School, died after she got involved in a boiler accident while holidaying with her dear mum in Diani, Kwale county. The two were airlifted to Nairobi and taken to Kenyatta National Hospital, where doctors fought tooth and nail to save their lives. Sadly, Aluoch died while her mother is recuperating in the hospital. The treatment for the two and the burial plans were estimated at KSh 10 million, and Kenyans led by the Lavington SDA Church, raised the amount and kept on ensuring that the two were on treatment. Fallen Georgina Aluoch’s teacher.
Why did Aluoch’s mum skip the burial? As mourners gathered in Migori county for the burial ceremony, Aluoch’s mother was sadly not present as she was still unwell and stuck in the hospital. She, however, shared a very beautiful tribute for her child, who used to take care of her and with whom they had been living since other members of their nuclear family were dead. There was a sombre mood when the body of the young girl was taken to the home, and an aunt said the family was shocked and in a lot of pain.

How did Alliance Girls Students mourn schoolmate’s death Deputy Principal Mrs. Faith Njuguna of Alliance Girls High School led a group of girls in mourning the departed girl, saying there is a season for everything. “We love Aluoch and also the mother in hospital and we will continue supporting her,” she said. “It is funny that at the hospital, Aluoch kept consoling us saying that it would be okay.
