Body Of Kenyan Nurse Who Drowned In Canada Arrives Home

The body of Hellen Wendy, the 24-year-old Kenyan nurse who drowned in a pool in Canada while live streaming herself on Facebook, was on Saturday finally received by family and friends at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).

Following her death, the deceased’s family revealed that they were having trouble raising the fees required to ferry her body back to Kenya. 

Her kin started a GoFundMe campaign to help raise said funds and they were finally able to foot the bill to do so thanks to well-wishers.

Speaking at JKIA, Hellen’s father noted that the family, though still in mourning, was happy to finally get the chance to lay their daughter to rest.

“The journey to get our daughter’s body back was long and difficult but with God’s grace we were finally able to do so. We had waited so long for her body that we even decided to go to Canada but the processes there were very complicated but all that is done now,” he said

According to the deceased’s father, her body will be ferried to Lee Funeral Home for storage until Sunday when it will be transported back to her family home.

Family members will deliberate on an appropriate day to lay her to rest upon which the details of her funeral will be communicated.
