Lionel Cornelius, \u2019n assistent-afrigter van die Boland Kavaliers, is Sondagoggend aan \u2019n hartaanval op die Bredasdorp-gholfbaan dood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lionel (36) het volgens sy vrou, Louine (33), tydens beurtkrag gaan gholf speel om die tyd om te kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is eintlik nog so onwerklik. Hy is Sondagoggend in \u2019n vrolike luim die huis uit. Hy was nie siek nie,\u201d s\u00ea Louine, wat om 10:45 die nuus gekry het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornelius het in 2014 tydens \u2019n rugbywedstryd ook \u2019n hartaanval gehad, s\u00ea Louine, \u2019n gr. 4-onderwyseres aan De Heide Primary School in Bredasdorp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHy het dit egter nie besef nie en aanhou speel. \u2019n Gedeelte van sy hart het seergekry.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornelius sou Sondagmiddag weer Wellington toe ry om sy pligte by Boland Rugby voort te sit. Hy het in die week in Wellington gebly en naweke huis toe gegaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Louine en haar pa is na die gholfbaan toe, waar hulle deur \u2019n bakkie voorgekeer is wat met Cornelius op pad na die Otto du Plessis-hospitaal toe was. Daar was glo nie ambulanse beskikbaar nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toe hulle by die hospitaal kom, het sy haar man se hand gedruk, maar geen reaksie gekry nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het altyd mekaar se hande gedruk. Dit was soos \u2019n teken. Toe ek sy hand druk, het hy nie teruggedruk nie. Ek het gehoop ek is verkeerd, maar geweet hy is nie meer met ons nie,\u201d s\u00ea Louine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornelius is kort n\u00e1 sy aankoms by die hospitaal dood verklaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die egpaar was agt jaar getroud en het twee kinders, Nahum (7) en Micah (3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Louine s\u00ea haar man het diep spore in ander se lewe gelaat en wou altyd seker maak almal is oukei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cN\u00e1 sy eerste hartaanval was sy woorde: \u2018Ek is jammer.\u2019 Hy wou net jammer s\u00ea omdat hy ons daardeur moes sit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornelius het geleef vir rugby en n\u00e1 die eerste hartaanval besluit hy wil \u2019n afrigter word. Sy droom was om teen 2031 die Springbokke se assistent-afrigter te wees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Louine s\u00ea sy het \u2019n kalmte oor haar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk huil by tye en dan skielik is my gesig kurkdroog. Ek dink die kalmte is daar omdat ek weet Lionel sou wou h\u00ea ek moet orraait wees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Boland-rugbyunie het op Facebook hulde gebring aan Cornelius wat \u2019n aanvalsafrigter by die Boland Rugby-unie en die Boland Kavaliers was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHy het puik werk gedoen en almal by die unie sal hom mis. Lionel, jou wedloop is voltooi. Tot ons weer ontmoet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Bredasdorp Health and Fitness-sentrum skryf hy het \u2019n omgeehart en opbouende glimlag gehad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHy het altyd die hardste gelag. Ons is dankbaar vir die tyd wat ons saam met Lionel kon deurbring en sal hom altyd na aan ons harte hou.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornelius word Saterdag in Bredasdorp begrawe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
