Reinet Marais

Thank you. Didn't know about that. Just think it might be a nice way to allow everyone who wants to, to attend and say their goodbyes.

Does anyone perhaps know of a live streaming service or anything along that line I can make use of to live stream the memorial service? I'm not tech savvy, so need something easy to work with. I was thinking about Facebook live (although I'm not sure how it works). Anyone with suggestions perhaps?

Hi all. Any of you who had a special bond with Francois who would like to attend the memorial service in Centurion, Pretoria? Please let me know.

Dankie almal. Ek lees een vir een elke boodskap. Beteken so baie. Ek is stukkend. Ek weet hy is nou waar geen pyn is nie… miskien binnekort sal ek vrede ervaar. Vanaand is ek stukkend, hartseer en sommer net kwaad 😭

It’s with much heartache that I have to let you know, Francois passed away this morning around 5:30 😭

Thank you so much for this message xx

Baie, baie dankie xx

Hi all - François’s wife here. François asked to give you guys an update as he is struggling typing at the moment. He is weak and trying to stay strong, but it is difficult at the moment. The Hospice can’t accommodate him at the moment. There has been a Covid outbreak at the hospice and we can’t take any chances. So we have to wait it out and see what’s happening. He is still at hospital, receiving IV feeding and doing the best he can, but he is very tired. We appreciate all the help and prayers. It means so much to both of us.
