A familiar face in the Soutpansberg’s Indian community has recently passed away.

Mrs Bhanuben Laloobhai of Chitrakut, Wylliespoort, passed away on Monday, June 15 after her health started to decline.

Mrs Laloobhai spent many of her years in Eltivillas, then later in India and her final days on Chitrakut. During her life journey, spanning over 64 years, she will be most remembered for her immense zest for life. Despite suffering enormously from health problems for the last 23 years, she was an epitome of joyousness. She never gave up on her life and her cheerfulness will always be reminisced.

“We pray for the peace of her beautiful soul.”

The family expressed their gratitude towards the Soutpansberg and surrounding communities for their sympathy, condolences and support.
