Sam Goldblatt, bekende Kimberleyse argitek wie se handewerk in die stad se silhoe\u00ebt ge\u00ebts is, het op 28 Februarie die merkwaardige mylpaal van 100 jaar bereik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy groot partytjie by die Acacia-aftreeoord waarna lank uitgesien is, het familie en vriende van heinde en verre byeengebring. Goldblatt se lewensmaat, Eleen de Klerk, sy seun, William, dogter, Scharie Dreyer (sy seun, Robert, is verlede jaar oorlede), agt kleinkinders (een is ook oorlede) en 11 agterkleinkinders – ook die drieling agterkleinkinders, twee seuns en ‘n dogter – was daar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By die geleentheid was meer as 100 geliefdes, vriende en oud-kollegas. Toesprake is gehou, koek gesny, gelag en gesels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dreyer het die plekmatjies ontwerp met wat alles in Goldblatt se lewe gebeur het. Hy het die koms van radio, Groot Depressie, Art Deco-styl, Tweede W\u00eareldoorlog, koms van radar, Big Band, koms van Apartheid, Tupperware, inry-teaters, Sharpville-slagting, Rock and Roll, televisie in Suid-Afrika, fondue-partytjies, Soweto-opstande, disco, skouerkussings, gekartelde hare, VHS-videobande, “aerobics”, WVK-sittings, Internet, “boy bands”, Nelson Mandela se vrylating, demokratiese Suid-Afrika, slimselfone, stroomdienste, beurtkag, Covid-19-pandemie, Kunsmatige Intelligensie, en Tik Tok beleef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op een kant van die plekmatjies is foto\u2019s van vanmele\u00eb se Kimberley-geboue, koerante en instellings, en aan die ander kant kiekies van hom in sy jong dae in Johannesburg, gelukkige jare saam met sy oorlede vrou, Henryetta, hul kinders, en ook saam met Eleen en geliefdes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geheim tot sy lang lewe eenvoudig<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vir Samuel Jacobus Goldblatt, gebore in Rosendal waar hy bergwater gedrink het, is die geheim tot sy lang lewe eenvoudig: bergwater van sy kinderdae in die Vrystaat, \u2019n passievolle loopbaan van 74 jaar, en die leiding van God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die verjaarsdaggeleentheid was \u2019n gepaste eerbetoon aan \u2019n man wat sy lewe aan die opbou van sy gemeenskap gewy het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy is bekend vir die geboue wat hy ontwerp het – waaronder die Elizabeth Conradie-skool<\/a>, hospitale en munisipale geboue – en vir sy onwrikbare geloof in menseregte. Sy firma, Goldblatt, Yuill & Vennote, was op \u2019n tyd \u2019n krag in die Noord-Kaap met takke in Kuruman en so ver as Bloemfontein en Mafikeng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gedurende die apartheidsjare was hy en sy vennote, soos David Yuill, bekend daarvoor dat hulle “oral baklei het vir beter menseregte en geleenthede vir almal, tot by die parlement”. Goldblatt het dikwels sy stem dik gemaak teen die onregverdigheid van die tyd, veral oor die beperkings wat op swart bouwerkers geplaas is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bly in voeling met gebeure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Selfs op 100 jaar is Goldblatt steeds by die Akasia-aftreeoord betrokke waar hy weekliks aan “gimtrim”-sessies deelneem. Hy hanteer steeds van hul eie huishoudelike take, kook nog kos, en hou \u2019n skerp oog op die aandelemark en die nuutste nuus op sy rekenaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldblatt het \u0149 diep verbintenis tot Kimberley en sy mense. In sy latere jare het hy gehelp om die Sam Goldblatt-kompleks by die Yonder-sentrum te vestig, \u2019n projek wat bedoel is om die lewe van mense met gestremdhede te verryk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEES OOK: <\/strong>Visie leef voort in nuwe kompleks by Yonder<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vir die mense van die Diamantstad is Sam Goldblatt meer as net \u2019n oud-argitek; hy is \u2019n lewende legende wat \u2019n eeu se geskiedenis, integriteit en menswaardigheid verteenwoordig. Soos hy self s\u00ea: \u201cNatuurlik het God my gelei\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/sam3_17169-e1773250353701.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":300041,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/lur-salig-onbewus-van-sy-administrateur-se-strafregtelike-aanklagte\/","url_meta":{"origin":297573,"position":0},"title":"LUR salig ‘onbewus’ van sy administrateur se strafregtelike aanklagte","author":"Helena Barnard","date":"8 May 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"LUR Bentley Vass het ges\u00ea hy is onbewus van kriminele kwessies rakende sy administrateurs vir die Sol Plaatje-munisipaliteit, terwyl een wel strafregtelike aanklagte teen hom het.","rel":"","context":"In "Hofsake"","block_context":{"text":"Hofsake","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/hofsake\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"Bentley Vass.
