grief, sharing memories of happier times spent with Charles.

of videos from the previous day, they were seen laughing and enjoying each
other’s company, oblivious to the tragedy that would soon unfold.
In her
posts, Jackie conveyed her disbelief and sorrow at Charles’s sudden departure.
She
reminisced about his vibrant spirit and zest for life, unable to come to terms
with the fact that he was gone.
“My
heart is broken, Someone wake me up, with a candle,” Jackie wrote.
Charles was 38 years old at the time of his untimely death.
His family issued a statement and appealed to everyone to respect
the privacy of the grieving fiancée Ciku Muriuki and the Ouda family
during this difficult time.

deep sorrow that the family of Charles ‘Charlie’ J. Ouda and Ciru Muriuki
inform you of his passing on the night of 3rd February 2024.
