Kangogo’s body was discovered after concern from his colleagues, who were alarmed when he uncharacteristically failed to report to work for three consecutive days.
Known for his reliability and professionalism, his unexplained absence raised immediate red flags, prompting a welfare check that led to the heartbreaking discovery at his Seattle apartment.
The cause or manner of his death has yet to be revealed to the public, as authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding his passing.
Originally from Kipkalwa Village in Elgeyo Marakwet County, Evans was known for his warmth, intelligence, and unwavering work ethic.
A graduate of St. Patrick’s Iten and Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, he pursued a promising career in the United States, where he continued to inspire those around him.
