rugby-afrigter<\/a> buite skoolverband. Hy het ook die Bolandse Cravenweekspan, die SA Akademiespan en Rawsonville se eerste span afgerig.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSy seun, Dirk, vertel sy pa het ‘n besondere manier gehad het om met mense te werk. “Hy kon die beste uit die mense om hom bring en het duisende mense oor sy leeftyd heen gehelp.” \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Boodskappe van medelye en herinneringe aan die invloed wat Delport op hul lewens gehad het, het op sosiale media ingestroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel hy afgetree was, het hy gereeld by die skool gaan kuier en handjie bygesit.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Oom Basie Delport was ‘n legende by HTS Drostdy en hy was baie geliefd,” het Louis Steijn, die hoof van HTS Drostdy, ges\u00ea. “Hy is in die vroe\u00eb 1970’s as onderwyser by die skool aangestel en het vir jare pas-en-draai-werk as vak aangebied. Hy het werklik meer as die ekstra myl vir die kinders by die skool gestap. Albei sy broers \u2013 Oom Hansie en Oom Hennie \u2013 het saam met hom by die skool as onderwysers gewerk. Oom Basie was ‘n fantastiese rugbyafrigter en het lank Die Boland-Cra\u00advenweekspan afgerig. Hy was ook ‘n kra\u00adnige atletiekafrigter waarin sy eie kinders, wat ook Donkies was, presteer het. Hy het ‘n uitsonderlike geheue gehad. Hy het elke kind in die skool se naam geken en sommer di\u00e9 van hul ouers ook.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“N\u00e1 sy aftrede het hy gereeld kom kuier met sy boek met rugbytellings by hom. Dan het hy almal kom groet en staaltjies uitgeruil en vertel hoe trots hy op sy eie kinders se prestasies n\u00e1 skool is. Hy was in hart en siel ‘n trotse Donkie en ons sal hom baie mis.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Delport, wat 60 jaar lank in Worcester gewoon het, het die afgelope ruk in ‘n tehuis in Belville gewoon, waar hy Sondag (27\u2009Julie) oorlede is. Hy laat sy kinders Dirk, Pieter en Francis Delport agter.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
