Help Antoinette Niyo's Family in Their Time of Loss

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind-hearted Strangers,

It is with profound sadness that I share the news of the passing of my beloved wife, Antoinette Niyo. Antoinette was a devoted mother, a loving wife, and a cherished friend. On October 21, 2024, she passed away in Houston, Texas, after a long and courageous battle with illness. At just 38 years old, she leaves behind a heartbroken family: me, her husband Anaclet Rukata, and our four beautiful children, including our youngest, a precious one-year-old son. Antoinette and I were blessed to share 17 wonderful years of marriage.

Antoinette was a pillar of strength, love, and grace. Even in the face of her illness, she remained a source of hope and comfort for her family and community. Her passing has left a void that is deeply felt, and our family is now faced with the daunting challenge of moving forward without her guiding hand and loving care.

In this time of grief, I am reaching out for your support. I now face the overwhelming responsibility of being both father and mother to our four children while mourning the loss of my dear wife. I am raising funds to help ease the financial burden of funeral expenses for Antoinette and to support our family during this difficult time.

Your contribution, no matter the size, will provide immeasurable relief as we navigate this heartbreaking journey. If you are unable to donate, we humbly ask for your prayers and for sharing this campaign with others who may be able to help.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your generosity, compassion, and love during this unimaginable time.

With deepest gratitude,

Anaclet Rukata
