Have been informed of the passing of ex Oranjemunder , Eugene Bennett last month!
Thoughts and prayers to the family!
Eugene ,, worked with him at 3 plant ,, have debt of gratitude to him ... I was in a very dark and bad space and in serious emotional trouble .. He said one day , " we are going for a drive " drove me to the end of 3 plant jetty and said " whatever is going on I am not interested in , what I am interested in is seeing you survive this ,, If you dont have the will to survive this crisis then jump off this jetty now , If you can look deep inside yourself and see hope then climb back into this bakkie now and as we drive back start leaving some of the clouds that are overwhelming you . I hate to see a life being wasted and its time you realised you are worth something " Without saying it directly he had a good sense for where I was - his shock treatment got me to start healing myself .. We became firm friends ,, RIP Eugene ..
