Andrew Brown (69), \u2019n inwoner en jarelange restauranteienaar op Yzerfontein, is Vrydag op gepaste wyse deur vriende en geliefdes in \u2019n stampvol Beaches Restaurant gegroet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brown, wat onlangs weens gesondheidsredes dood is, was bekend vir sy smullekker disse en gebak. Hy het die Beaches Restaurant 27 jaar gelede saam met \u2019n vennoot op Yzerfontein geopen, kort nadat hy hom hier langs die kusdorp kom vestig het. Brown was die afgelope drie jaar alleeneienaar van die gewilde restaurant, wat al vir jare \u2019n bekende baken op die dorp is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens sy vriendin, Jurne Brown het sy restaurant die afgelope Vrydagmiddag gedurende sy gedenkdiens uit sy nate gebars om hul vriend en Yzerfontein-geliefde te kom groet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brown sal onthou word vir sy lekker kos. Volgens Jurne was hy egter \u2019n bobaas-bakker wat die lekkerste troukoeke gebak het. \u201cHy was lief vir kosmaak, maar het \u2019n passie vir bak gehad,\u201d vertel sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brown was ook geliefd onder sy personeel wat hy volgens inwoners en restaurantgangers baie goed behandel het. Carol Sias, wat tydelik die bestuur van die restaurant oorgeneem het, kan daarvan getuig, omdat sy reeds 26 jaar lank vir hom gewerk het. Sy het haar oor die jare opgewerk tot sy regterhand en hy het sy passie vir die bedryf en vir kos aan haar oorgedra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHy was \u2019n merkwaardige mens. Hy was streng as baas, maar het \u2019n persoonlike verbintenis met elkeen van sy personeellede gehad,\u201d vertel Sias. Volgens haar het hy personeellede graag persoonlik bygestaan en seker gemaak hy ken elke aspek van hul lewe omdat hy belanggestel het. \u201cOns gaan hom baie mis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jurne s\u00ea Brown was baie beginselvas en het opgestaan vir dit waarin hy geglo het, asook vir sy werknemers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel die restaurant sy \u2018baba\u2019 was en sy personeel soos sy eie familie, was sy hond, Hurley (5), sy beste vriend. \u201cHy was baie lief vir daardie hond,\u201d vertel sy. Hurley, bekend as \u201cMayor Hurley\u201d, l\u00ea daagliks op die stoep van die restaurant en groet verbygangers, pas die straat op of gaan baljaar saam met strandgangers in die branders. \u201cAlmal ken Hurley. Hy stap gedurig deur die strate van Yzerfontein.\u201d Jurne het die goeie nuus gedeel dat di\u00e9 swart labrador sommer blitsig \u2019n nuwe tuiste in dieselfde straat as sy vorige eienaar gekry het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHy bly steeds by die see,\u201d s\u00ea sy verlig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sias voeg by dat Hurley Brown se hele lewe was. \u201cHurley was sy kind,\u201d glimlag sy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
