[Michael Alexander]

Found it very difficult to post this,

But sincere condolences to Sarel, Rohan and Chare' on the  tragic loss of their Oupa and mother.

The town is in mourning  on hearing this tragic news of the plane crash in the Cape this morning.

It is in time's like this, that one see's the support of a community like Oranjemund.....

Oom Gawie Le Roux was being medivac'd from Oranjemund at 04h00 this morning, Charmaine went with her dad..........

So sorry, have some fond memories of Oupa,Ouma and Charmaine on the Junior badminton tour to Cape Town a few years back!!!

Ons innigste simpatie aan Sarel en kinders. Nou sal ek eers die knipmes wat oom Gawie jare gelede aan my gegee het troetel. Rus in vrede oom gawie en Charmain.

Yes Malcolm - Gawie was the treatment plant foreman at no 4 plant. He then became the mines safety officer after Edgar Selby died { from a stroke }  .

[Malcolm Bertoni]

I worked with him at 4 plant before I moved to Affenrucken. I lost touch after that.

He was a good guy.

This is just so tragic.  Sad days, I will keep the families in my heart and thoughts.  Dad remembers them well, and sends his regards and condolences.
