Sy was \u2019n vriendin, \u2019n mentor, \u2019n suster en \u2019n ware voorbeeld vir ander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Weskus is in rou gedompel n\u00e1 die skielike dood van Virginia Jacqueline Vraagom (61), kurator-prinsipaal van Panorama Prim\u00eare Skool, wat Maandag 28 Februarie aan natuurlike oorsake dood is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vraagom was baie bekend vir haar omgeehart en liefde vir ander. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy is op 19 April 1960 in Steenberg\u2019s Cove gebore en was die vyfde van sewe kinders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy het haar skoolloopbaan by Steenberg\u2019s Cove Prim\u00ear begin en daarna na Panorama Prim\u00eare Skool geskuif. Sy het haar skooljare by Schoonspruit Sekond\u00eare Skool in Malmesbury voltooi, waarna sy haar onderwyssertifikaat by Zonnebloem Kollege verwerf en haar graad aan die Kaapse Skiereiland Universiteit van Tegnologie voltooi het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die sirkel is voltooi toe sy teruggekeer het na Steenberg\u2019s Cove waar sy vir 41 jaar getroue diens gelewer het. Sy het in daardie tyd \u2013 van 2010 tot 2018 \u2013 as skoolhoof gedien. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel sy uit die onderwys getree het, het Vraagom se hart en passie nog altyd by skoolhou gel\u00ea. Sy het toe die besluit geneem om haar eie vroe\u00ebkinderontwikkeling-sentrum, Fishing for Jesus ECD, te begin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vraagom is in 2019 genader om kurator-prinsipaal te word by Panorama Prim\u00eare Skool, dieselfde skool waar sy destyds self in die skoolbanke gesit het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Haar suster Gloria Barends glo sy het Spreuke 22 vers 29 uitgeleef. \u201cSy wou altyd die beste in haar werksplek doen. Ek wil haar onthou vir die mens wat sy was, want vir haar was die lewe Christus. Sy het haar lewe aan die Here gewy,\u201d s\u00ea Barends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die twee het \u2019n besonderse band gehad en geglo dat hulle nie net vleeslike susters nie, maar ook geestelike susters was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Barends vertel Vraagom was die gom van die familie en het \u2019n manier gehad om almal bymekaar te hou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy het graag gebak en kosgemaak en haar Vigi<\/em>-spesialiteit by elke partytjie voorgesit. Partytjies gaan nie dieselfde sonder haar wees nie. Dit is iets wat ek altyd sal onthou.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Vraagom het vantevore self bekend gemaak hoe trots sy op haar familie was en hoe na hulle aanmekaar was en dat die broers en susters se liefde vir mekaar oneindig is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ren\u00e9 Joorst, haar vriendin en kollega, onthou hoe hulle dadelik oor die weg gekom het. \u201cAs een van slegs \u2019n paar vroue-skoolhoofde en opvoedkundige leiers in die Weskus, was Vraagom \u2019n mentor vir my en baie ander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHaar deernis, dissipline en diep spiritualiteit was en bly vir my sleutel-inspirasiepunte.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Avril Daniels, die Vredenburg- kringbestuurder, s\u00ea hulle is hartseer oor Vraagom se dood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSy was \u2019n briljante en visioen\u00eare leier wat provinsiale en nasionale erkenning vir haar werk as skoolleier en -hoof geniet het. Sy was passievol oor die onderwys en die versorging van ons leerders in nood,\u201d s\u00ea Daniels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hy voeg by dat Vraagom se energie, deursettingsvermo\u00eb en vermo\u00eb om desondanks die uitdagende omstandig\u00adhede te oorkom, nog lank onthou sal word. Almal getuig daarvan dat Vraagom waarlik \u201chuis toe is\u201d en dat \u201cdie engele juig\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2019n Deurry-gedenkdiens word Vrydag 4 Maart van 16:00 tot 19:00 by Bougainvillastraat 19 in Laingville gehou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pleks van blomme vra die familie \u2019n bydrae van niebederfbare voedsel wat hulle aan minderbevoorregtes wil skenk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Die begrafnis sal Saterdag 5 Maart by Sandy Point-gemeenskapsaal om 10:00 begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sy was \u2019n vriendin, \u2019n mentor, \u2019n suster en \u2019n
