Lama Gonpo

Dear Friends of Kilung Foundation,

We are deeply sad to share that Lama Gonpo Tsering died on Feb. 27th. When it became certain that he would not be able to receive a liver transplant, his family was able to transport him back home to Dzachuka for his final few days.

Dza Kilung Rinpoche and the Kilung Foundation are grateful for the medical support and prayers sent for Lama Gonpo by so many people, helping to give hope, and then ease his passing.

Gonpo spent his life to help others. You can remember Gonpo by making a donation to the Community Center being named in his honor.
