Janene Moodley, the mother of two sisters killed in an accident in the Northern Cape last weekend, says the family is \u201cdevastated by the tragic loss of our beloved Cassidy and Connor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sisters, accompanied by their older sister Storm, were on their way back to Johannesburg when the accident occurred near Victoria West in the Klein Karoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They returned from Cape Town after attending their cousin\u2019s graduation, IOL<\/a><\/em> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Family spokesperson and uncle, Lance Poonawassy, said the cause of the accident is still under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storm was initially in critical condition in hospital after the crash. Poonawassy confirmed she remains \u201cbruised and battered,\u201d but is recovering at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBy the grace of God, Storm\u2019s condition has stabilised, and she has safely returned home,\u201d Janene said earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outpouring of support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cassidy and Connor will be laid to rest on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTomorrow my girls will conclude their journey on this earth,\u201d Janene wrote on Facebook<\/a>, expressing her \u201cdeepest gratitude\u201d for the outpouring of support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFrom the depths of our shattered hearts, my family and I would like to express our deepest gratitude for the overwhelming love and support we\u2019ve received since our nightmare began on Sunday,\u201d she wrote in another post on Friday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe truly appreciate your presence and support during this incredibly difficult time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
