Terealle Heidi Obituary
Terealle Heidi Akello Oyombo Dani passed away on October 2nd, 2023, after long illness. Even though her failing heart took her away from us, her loving heart continues to radiate in our lives and fills us with warmth and joy.
Heidi was born on July 24, 1994, in Kisumu, Kenya to Frederick Oyombo and Constance Gewa. She attended Malezi School, Clover Elementary School, Palms Middle School, Robinson Secondary School and Virginia Commonwealth University.
Heidi is survived by her dad, Fred; mum, Connie; sister, Tamika Oyombo; aunties (Caroline, Nancy, Olga, Florence, Josephine, Lucy); uncles (Vernon, John, Christopher) and a host of cousins.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, John Gewa, Rosemary Gewa, Raphael Oyombo, Margaret Oyombo; uncles Vincent and Kevin; and aunties Pamela and Winnie.
Dani, we love you, but God loves you more. May you dance with the angels, our dear one.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.-Jeremiah 29:11.
