Theuns Eksteen (76), jarelange inwoner van Graaff-Reinet wat diep spore in di\u00e9 dorp getrap het, is die afgelope Sondagaand skielik oorlede nadat hy Vrydagaand \u2019n kopbesering opgedoen het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Eksteen se eggenote, Daphleen, het hulle buite gestaan om na die maansverduistering te kyk, toe hy agteroor geval het. Eksteen is op die toneel vir harsingskudding behandel, maar teen Saterdagoggend het sy toestand versleg, waarna hy na \u2018n hospitaal in Port Elizabeth gehaas is. Medici kon hom daar egter geen hulp meer bied nie. Volgens Daphleen het Eksteen die laaste paar maande aan vertigo (duiseligheid) gely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eksteen se afsterwe laat \u2019n geweldige leemte in die gemeenskap van Graaff-Reinet, waar hy tot met sy dood aktief op verskeie komitees ge-dien het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peter Whitlock, tesourier van die Graaff-Reinet Erfenisbewaringsvereniging, vertel:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTheuns het \u2019n passie vir Graaff-Reinet en die natuur gehad. Hy was die huidige voorsitter van die Erfenisbewaringsvereniging en het ook nou met die Rupertstigting en Reinet-trust saamgewerk om historiese geboue in Graaff-Reinet te bewaar en histories korrek te restoreer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUit sy liefde vir die natuur het hy \u2019n aktiewe rol gespeel in die bewaring van die destydse Karoo Natuurreservaat se grond toe dit in die 1990\u2019s bedreig is deur onwettige boerderyaktiwiteite. Hy was aktief betrokke by die totstandkoming van wat nou bekendstaan as die Camdeboo Nasionale Park, en ook stigterslid van Granaat \u2013 die Vriende van die Camdeboo Nasionale Park.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walter en Anne Murray, wat saam met Eksteen lede van Granaat was, vertel dat hy \u2019n gemoedelike, opregte mens was.
\u201cHy het altyd \u2019n kort, waardevolle boodskap met ons vergaderings gelewer, en daarvan gehou om af te sluit met: \u2018Water verdeel die w\u00eareld, wyn verenig die w\u00eareld, kom ons drink daarop!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samantha Graham, huidige DA-koukusleier in Graaff-Reinet, s\u00ea Eksteen was \u2019n staatmaker in die gemeenskap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHy was die seremoniemeester tydens die bekendstellingsgeleentheid van die DA in 2000 in Graaff-Reinet, ons destydse koukusleier, en ook \u2019n persoonlike mentor \u2013 ek het ontsettend baie by hom geleer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Graham was Eksteen nooit in enige besluitnemingspro-sesse tevrede met enigiets minder as slegs d\u00edt wat tot voordeel van die hele gemeenskap sou strek nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHy was \u2019n rariteit in die hedendaagse politieke ruimte, vanwe\u00eb sy eerlikheid, opregtheid en absolute integriteit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eksteen was hoofbestuurder van die destydse Suid-Afrikaanse Merino-stoettelersvereniging van 1973 tot 1994 en ook \u2019n hele aantal jare voorsitter van die hospitaalraad op die dorp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Theuns het \u2019n passie vir Graaff-Reinet en die natuur gehad.<\/div>\n
Peter Whitlock<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Garth Cloete is sedert 1974 bevriend met Eksteen en was ook \u2019n kollega. \u201cDaar was destyds seker nie \u2019n pad in hierdie land waarop ons twee nie saam gery het terwyl ons die land deurkruis het op inspeksies nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns was steeds saam aktiewe lede van Granaat, en Theuns was ook een van \u2019n groep vriende wat nog elke Vrydag saam gholf gespeel het.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eksteen laat sy eggenote Daphleen na, asook sy kinders Ben en Carla (Briedenhann), stiefkinders Billy, Tommy en Lize-Marie Bosch, en agt kleinkinders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
