Rugbyliefhebbers is geskok oor die skielike dood van Lionel Cornelius van Bredasdorp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 geliefde inwoner is Sondag (8 Januarie) in die ouderdom 37 op die gholfbaan aan \u2019n hartaanval oorlede. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lionel, wat die aanvalsafrigter van die Boland-rugbyspan was, was baie geliefd \u2013 nie net onder die spelers nie, maar ook onder sy kollegas en Boland-ondersteuners. Lionel sal veral onthou word vir sy baanbrekerswerk op die rugbyveld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marquine Lukas van die Atlantics-rugbyklub, wat nie net saam met hom by die Boland-rugbyunie betrokke was nie, maar ook \u2019n goeie vriend van die oorledene was, s\u00ea: \u201cNooit sou ek kon dink Kersfees 2022 sou ons laaste groet wees nie; soveel vrae sonder antwoorde . . . <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSaam kon ons rugby, krieket en gholf speel, en as ons saam kon hokkie, netbal of wat ook al \u2019n bal het gespeel het, sou ons dit ook gedoen het. Hy het altyd daardie X-faktor gehad. Indien dinge op die rugbyveld sou swaar gaan, sou ons altyd kon verwag dat hy met iets spesiaal na vore sal kom, al was dit \u2019n skepskop \u2013 sy linkervoet was dodelik wanneer ons dit nodig gehad het. Hy was absoluut legendaries in alles wat hy aangepak het en wanneer hy die kriekethelm op sy kop gesit het, het ek altyd geweet hy gee sy alles \u2013 \u2019n 50 of \u2019n 100 was altyd \u2019n moontlikheid,\u201d het Marquine ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In \u2019n boodskap aan Lionel het hy ges\u00ea: \u201c2023 was die jaar wat jy jou deurbraak in rugby wou maak. Jy was so opgewonde oor alles wat jy aanpak en almal kon dit aanvoel. My liewe Lionel, vandag is steeds onwerklik hartseer, jou toewyding om altyd \u2019n mensemens te wees sal vir ewig in my hart bly staan \u2013 tot ons eendag weer ontmoet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Huldeblyke het ook op Facebook ingestroom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ivanor da Kosta s\u00ea: \u201cEk wens woorde kan soos goue olie oor julle rou wonde loop en al die seer wegneem, maar woorde is net woorde en daarom eerder \u2019n gebed dat die Here julle sal toevou met Sy ontsagwekkende genade en liefde. Mag Hy, die outeur van die lewe wat ons lewensasem in Sy hand hou, julle vul met Sy nabyheid, wysheid en troos. Die leemte wat jy agterlaat is groot, Lionel, en jou sprankelende geaardheid sal gewis gemis word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Bredasdorpse Rangers-rugbyklub, waar Lionel ook \u2019n afrigter was, skryf: \u201cOns betuig op hierdie wyse ons innige meegevoel met sy vrou en kinders, sy ouers en sy bre\u00eb familie. Dis \u2019n reuseverlies in ons vriendskapskring, maar \u2019n groter verlies vir die sport rugby waarvoor hy so lief was en besig was om die leer in afrigting vinnig te klim.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lionel laat sy vrou en twee kinders agter. Lionel word Saterdag 14 Januarie om 10:00 uit die Church of The Holy Spirit in Bredasdorp begrawe. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
