Hi Micheal
When Nicholas and I left O'mund in 1990 we heard that Marianne Loubser passed away ?? Not sure of the date though. She was such a lovely friend in my early years in O'mund/

Gabi, I was in a term of self imposed exile and was not in Oranjemund for that time perios, however Adriaan Van Rooyen wanted to know how old was she (roughly), did she die here? He will go home and ask his wife tonite, also a Mariaan..... I presume she was Afrikaans?

Sara Lane

Ken Wilson, wife of Tanse....died in a plane crash in Indonesia in December 1997.  I was the last oranjemunder to see him, as i was staying with them in Jakarta, I flew back to Bali on the friday, and he flew to NZ on the Saturday. (i think.. or thursday and friday)...anyway the plan crashed over Sumatra. 

Tanse now lives in New Zealand.

I think the Marianne that Gabi is referring to was step sister to Andre Du Toit, who is married to Ann Jones. As far as I can remember, Marianne was married to Kobus Loubser.

Bev Burchell

Oh my gosh.... terrible to hear about Bevan!!! 
Marianne Loubser was Andre's step sister and was married to Greg Vice... she passed away in the late 90's.  Gill Ortlepp will remember more about the time etc.  It was tragic.
