After leaving school I wasn’t sure what to do so I started working for a dental laboratory. Not really my thing so I moved to a corporate environment and studied public relations and photography. I wasn’t involved with anyone and continued to hang out with my brother and the boys and the youth. I met Craig when organizing my 21st. around the same time my father was kidnapped. He was eventually released battered and bruised but my family lost everything to get him back. The police where useless and the perpetrator skipped the country with the money etc. there was no extradition treaty to get them back or anything. My father hated South Africa for a long time and decided to move to England. The time he left I caught my then fiancée with his boss. (a double loss) I was devastated. I ran away joined a band and went on tour. I sang all over the country and really enjoyed the life. I have met and performed with many great and talented people. During this time I fell for my manager and we had a whirlwind relationship, he never wanted to get married and certainly never wanted children so we parted on good terms. Chris was stable, I needed a rock in my life when everything else seemed to be crazy. During our relationship I met Deon and we became firm friends. I travelled to the Congo, England (looking for my father) Texas and Louisiana. I went back to corporate on my return, wiser, cheekier, and certainly more stable. Deon and I got together and have never been apart since. He is my passion and my great love. I can see his destiny and I know it is my place to help him achieve it because he has such a love and compassion for people. He is a fabulous teacher. (Biblically speaking) In life he is a personal trainer. But once again teaching people to live healthy and encouraging them to do so. I speak to large groups of people and I enjoy one on one. We moved to the coast 11 years ago and have mostly been happy here. I am still weary of people. I work at a retirement village where I arrange all the social activities of the members as well as tours and outings. I have been blessed to be able to travel to the Namaqualand flowers, Knysna, Cape Town, the Kruger park, various game parks, enjoyed the Cherry festival in Free State and so much more through my work. I think people are very eager to travel abroad when we have a wonderful interesting country with so much to see and enjoy. Married life certainly has its ups and downs. Thankfully the ups are fabulous. My experiences have made me very strong, I don’t allow many in, but connecting with my past has been very calming for me. Thank you all for all the stories. I love it.
God bless you all the I am so looking forward to seeing you in November.
