\u2019n Vriendelike gees maak s\u00f3 \u2019n groot verskil dat wanneer di\u00e9 mens weg is, sukkel die wat agterbly met die leemte. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u00edt is, in kort, die verhaal van Piet Tolmie (70), die vriendelike man in \u2019n rolstoel op \u2019n stoep in Ho\u00ebr Drostdystraat, Kariega. Voor sy skielike dood was hy \u2019n bekende gesig waar hy daar gesit en waai het vir verbygangers en sommer ook \u2019n ogie oor die straat se veiligheid gehou het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDankie aan almal wat \u2019n glimlag op Piet se gesig gebring het en vir hom gewaai het. Min het daardie mense geweet hoe \u2019n groot inspirasie hulle vir hom was. Dit het sy dag gemaak en die w\u00eareld vir hom beteken,\u201d s\u00ea Griet, Piet se weduwee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Een van die mense wat Piet altyd gegroet het, was Re-althon George, \u2019n huurmotorbestuurder van Star Cabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c<\/span>U<\/span> pper<\/span> <\/span> Drostdystraat is deel van my roete. Ek het bewus geraak van die oom in die rolstoel op die stoep en hom begin groet. Later was dit deel van daaglikse roetine om te toet<\/span> en waai wanneer ek daar verbyry.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op \u2019n dag het Celeste McNamara, \u2019n familielid van Piet en een van Re-althon se gereelde kli\u00ebnte, hom gebel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy het ges\u00ea dat die oom siek is en hy moet hospitaal toe, maar die ambulans kan hom nie kom haal nie. Ek het ander ouens van Star Cabs gevra om my kli\u00ebnte te help terwyl ek die oom gou hospitaal toe vat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAi, my hart was seer toe niemand by die hospitaal my wou help om die oom uit die kar te haal nie. Hy was \u2019n groot man en dit was moeilik om hom uit te kry, veral omdat hy net een been gehad het. Dieselfde aand het Celeste gebel om te s\u00ea die oom het gesterf,\u201d s\u00ea Re-althon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens hom gebeur dit gereeld dat hulle as huurmotorbestuurders in noodgevalle mense na die hospitaal moet neem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Om uiting aan hul waardering vir Piet van Upper Drostdy se vriendelikheid te gee, het Star Cabs \u2019n plan gemaak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celeste vertel: \u201cDit was die mooiste en hoendervleis oomblik toe Star Cabs se karre n\u00e1 Piet se afsterwe hier in \u2019n konvooi gestop en kom groet het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie blomme en kaartjie van Star Cabs se manne was ook die enigste blomme en kaartjie wat Griet met Piet se afsterwe gekry het.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Griet s\u00ea dit het haar diep geraak, \u201cDie Star Cabs manne se eerbetoon was vir my \u2018n baie mooi gebaar. Re-althon het die lied Jealous of The Angels<\/span> gespeel. En ja, Skattebol Piet is nou tussen die engele. Elke dag saam met hom die jaar en ses maande wat ons getroud was, was wonderlik. Hy het my Bollatjie Roos genoem. Soms hoor ek hom nog my so roep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Griet praat net met dankbaarheid oor Star Cabs se Re-althon. \u201cHy het niks ontsien om my man te help nie. Piet was \u2019n groot man en Re-althon het hom man-alleen in die huurmotor gehelp. En ook by die hospitaal gehelp totdat hy opgeneem is.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re-althon s\u00ea, \u201cAlhoewel oom Piet weg is, val my o\u00eb nog elke keer wanneer ek in Upper Drostdystraat ry, op die le\u00eb stoep. En al is daar niemand wat waai nie, bring die gedagtes aan die oom in sy rolstoel op die stoep \u2018n glimlag op my gesig.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
