My dear Brother Kevin, today you would have been 69 years old and this year on the 10th June marks your 12th year death anniversary. I recall with very fond memories your daily phone calls of concern and wanting to know how the business was doing. Since your death, I now own the business and have built a world class workshop and office facility that I have no doubt you would have been proud of. I thank God for your life and the immense impact that you made in so many life's. We began our family journey with seven (7) and now we are only four (4) left. Gone but not forgotten.

My dear Brother Kevin, nine years have passed and it seems like yesterday. you are in my daily thoughts and I am constantly reminded of your gestures, your actions and the humorous personality that you had. As a family we miss you and there is no one that can take your place. You hold a special place in my heart and so sad that you were taken in a flash. God had a plan and we will journey on until our time too shall come. I am doing my very best for those around me and thank you for being my brother and example to me in this life.

Time moves on....other people come into our lives - yet, the gap remains. Where you stood in our hearts and lives is now filled with longing, yearning to fill that space with your presence we so loved. Your presence remains through the memories we made together. For those we rejoice and are full of thanks that you live on and always will while we’re yet alive.

The night before you were called, I arrived home late from Richards Bay and was unable to erect the Stainless Steel Flag Pole in my front garden. However that evening I proudly displayed this on my front porch in anticipation of the 2010 World Cup that was commencing the next day 10th June 2010. At around 2-35am the next morning, I was awoken by the noise of the flag-pole falling and went out to investigate thinking how on earth could the dogs have pulled this over. As I opened my front door there was not a soul in sight but only a wind that had come up. I picked up the Flag Pole and went back inside. As I was about to get back into bed, I suddenly became ill and had to use the toilet. After that episode I got back into bed and about five minutes later, the phone rang. Getting a phone call in the early hours of the morning very seldom is the bearer of good news. However when the voice on the other end said that you has passed away, I immediately went into a state of absolute shock and when Debbie asked who died and I mentioned you, she could also not imagine that you were gone and kept on saying that I was mistaken. For five minutes after that I covered my entire body almost as if I could momentarily shut the world out of my life. I pondered on what had just happened and am sure that it was you who came to say a last goodbye, with the flag pole falling, the sudden gust of wind and me feeling sick the way I did. I then had the unpleasant task of waking Mom to break this traumatic news to her. I phoned Bernice to tell her that I wanted to see you before they took you away. Nolan made his way to our home and drove us to Pietermaritzburg. I slept the entire journey and only awoke when we arrived at your home to be greeted by the mortuary van that was there to collect your lifeless body. I made my way to your bedroom and when I touched you, your body was still warm and you looked as though you were only sleeping. I spent a few minutes with you in the hope that by some miracle you would open your eyes and speak to me. Just two weeks before this day you spent the weekend with us in Durban and we had a good time and even did some fishing where it reminded me of our childhood days at the dam. When you left that Monday morning I was pleased that we spent quality time together and we had even spoken about future plans. Little did I realize on that Monday morning that it would be the very last time that I would see you in this life. When we carried you out of your home and into the waiting vehicle that was taking you to the mortuary, I prayed that God would have mercy on your soul. The days leading up to the funeral were heartbreaking and every time that I thought about you, I shed a silent tear. The day of your funeral arrived and there again, in life you were handsome and in death you looked more handsome almost as though you could open your eyes and be a part of this life again. Unfortunately the time had come for you to depart and take up your heavenly place. If there is anything that is expected of us in the life, it is to make a difference and this my dear brother you did. I can only smile when I think about how funny you could be and how you could have a crowded house in stitches of laughter with what you said and just how you said it. You were gifted with humour and your personality was one of good spirit. I have no doubt that there are many people whom you interacted with in life, that still think about you and what I good person you were. I so often think about you and have had many a good dream about you. As much as we would love to have you back, we have come to the realization that in this life there is a journey to be followed and once completed, there is no turning back. You have travelled your journey and you have run your race vigourously always focusing on the ultimate goal and mark. I have no doubt that you were greeted with the words""" Well Done thy Good and Faithful servant, enter into my Kingdom. You have left a very big void in the lives of so many people including myself but we are consoled by the fact of having a mind that has photographed you in so many different ways during your life, and now we have the pleasure of replaying these images at any given time. The mind is so powerful and these images are indelible, this in itself is incredible. We miss you my brother and one day will see you in the sweet bye and bye. Your baby brother "Loots' the nickname you gave me.

What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others. Kevin has left his mark not only in our family but in the lives of all who had contact with him. We were chosen and honoured to have shared a bloodline with this exceptional man. Times shared and laughs together will always be remembered. Rest in peace my darling brother until the day dawns and our sorrow is wiped away, memories of you live on in our lives. Our earthly home is a better place because you lived..

The journey of life is filled with moments of happiness and times of sadness. During the course of life we experience the passing on of Loved ones and throughout our lives we remember the times that were shared with them. My brother you have left so many treasured memories right until our last weekend together. It is now five years and to this date I still have moments where I cannot believe that you are gone. Unfortunately.... this is what we all have to pass through and for some of us it comes quickly and for others with much pain. For our family you were someone special and as we continue on this exciting journey filled with much mystery , understand that we too will someday join you. It is not until the loom is silent and the shuttle ceases to fly , shall God unroll the canvas and explain the reason why. Love Elvis & Debbie Until we meet again.

When I looked up from my prostrate position you were there wondering about this intrusion into the family you had become with our parents; when I stood up on my feet I looked you in the eye, my unsteady feet struggling right away to catch up with you out there ahead of me. You walked me into life and you taught me so much about living: giving of yourself sacrificially; laughing through struggle and pain, mostly at yourself; reaching deep and when that was not enough, digging deeper still to give the best and the last of yourself so others could be whole; forgiving freely; sharing generously; never complaining; always ready to serve others in humility. Today you would have been 62 but you reached this life's boundary at 57. Too soon!! You're still there every day as I remember and live by the lessons you taught. Kevin, What a brother you were, what a leader as I began my journey into life, and, what a gift from God. I follow still in the important learnings from your legacy, and still I give thanks that you were my brother!!!

3 years since you left and nothing prepares us for the moment in time when you lose someone you love, someone close to your heart...

We that remain let us love and appreciate each other for we never know when we'll be plucked. Thank God for Kevin's life and love

59 years ago today a boy was born. That boy became my older brother, Kevin. As we grew together, so did my love and appreciation of him. I looked for the day when we could spend time together recalling the memories of bygone years that would make our hearts glad. Now he's gone, the memories, however, live on. I will cherish them in my heart - giving thanks for my brother, his love & life.

My dear beloved brother Kevin, gone but still in my daily thoughts of what a good person you were. Gone but never forgotten.


others first

October 8, 2010

In the early years Stan & I were 'dating' long distance.  Stan was in Umtata, then Oudtshoorn and me in Pietermaritzburg.   I spent Thursday nights and Saturday nights with Stan's mom and dad whenever I could.  

Stan's brothers Kevin and Elvis took me under their wings.  I would get chocolate, ice cream bars and rides home whenever I needed that.  I felt loved by the entire family (except 7 year old Jilly who was jealous whenever Stan was around ~sorry Jill, I know you love me now as I do you,too.)

I knew I was marrying into a family who loved each other dearly, and put each other first.  Kevin proved that many times over the years,as we went back and forth, from whereever in the world we then lived, back "home".  Their home was always home for us.  Little tokens of love like, "Let me polish your shoes, Darl,"  and other  loving gestures were made.

I miss him already.  I can't imagine a family dinner without his jokes,  and I pray that Bernice, Craig and Carmen find comfort in the gem Kevin was to our family.   He always put others first.

A song to remember

June 11, 2010

We met Kevin when the family came to USA to visit Stanley, and they all came to LA, we had dinner in my house, it was an international gathering, South Africa, Argentina, Guatemala and of course American friends. My husband and friend from Argentina began to sing argentinean folklore, Kevin enjoyed the music, non of the non-spanish speaking friends understood the lyrics, but they love the songs, and after al little while we all were singing, at the very end, before living Kevin began to sing a hymn and everybody sang together. It was like the closing song, we all stayed with that message in our hearts. Unfortunatelly I don't know the english name of the hymn at this moment, but I do remember Keving singing it! God bless his journey back home!
