In Loving Memory of

Noëmi

Noëmi Ral

It is with profound sorrow that the Embassy of the Kingdom of Belgium in Kenya informs you of the death of Noëmi Ral on May 20, 2021 in Johannesburg.

Noëmi who worked at the Embassy as First Secretary was our ray of light. She was tragically hit by the Corona virus and after battling it courageously she passed away.

She will be dearly missed by her family, friends and colleagues.

We would be grateful if you registered here your message of condolence which will be conveyed to her family.
