Deon, the whole World is going to miss your talents.

Your humour always lit up the room when you walked in.

Your charm that you carried around your neck with pride.

Your charisma that radiates the company around you.

Your dance style, which is so unique.

The way you rolled your partner over your stomach.

Your personal well groomed mannerism.

You became an icon as a sumo wrestler.

You were good at your trade as a policeman.

You touched the lives of all your colleagues.

You are the love of your wife and kin's lives.

Words cannot describe your worth to humanity.

Then suddenly, on 7 January 2006 you were gone.

Taken away to higher calling.

Taken away to perform your honourable duties in heaven.

You will be, no you are, sadly missed by all.

Prepare a table for your friends.

So that we can all, be united once more.

Let every ones sorry turn to joy.

With the knowledge that you are waiting for us all!

Go in peace my dear friend until then.

12^th JANUARY 2006
