Geliefdes van die avontuurlustige Vasti le Roux (34), \u2019n haarkapper van die Paarl, sukkel om haar tragiese dood te verwerk nadat sy Saterdag (21 Oktober) op \u2019n staproete by die Dassieshoek-natuurreservaat naby Robertson deur \u2019n rivier meegesleur en haar lyk ure later deur reddingspanne opgespoor is.<\/p>\n
Le Roux was deel van \u2019n groep van altesaam 15 stappers wat Saterdag die Arangieskop-staproete aangedurf het. Di\u00e9 staproete neem glo twee dae om te voltooi.<\/p>\n
Sy het na bewering gegly en in die rivier, wat weens die naweek se re\u00ebnval sterk gevloei het, beland.<\/p>\n
Megan Davids, nooddiens-woordvoerder in die Wes-Kaap, het die voorval by navraag aan Paarl Post <\/i>bevestig.<\/p>\n
\u201cNooddienste is omstreeks 14:00 na die gebied ontplooi nadat ons \u2019n oproep ontvang het oor \u2019n groep stappers wat by die Arangieskop-staproete in nood verkeer. Die groep het onveilige weerstoestande te\u00ebgekom en besluit om terug te keer.<\/p>\n
\u201cEen van die stappers het in die rivier beland en is meegesleur. \u2019n Soektog is dadelik van stapel gestuur, in samewerking met ons hommeltuig-eenheid asook vrywilligers van die Wildernis-Soek-en-Redding (WSAR). Die reddingspan het later met behulp van die hommeltuig op die vermiste stapper afgekom en sy is dood verklaar.\u201d<\/p>\n
Volgens Davids het reddingspanne by die res van die stappers gebly totdat die rivier se vlakke gedaal het, waarna hulle na veiligheid geneem is.<\/p>\n
Geen ander beserings is aangemeld nie.<\/p>\n
Sers. Wesley Twigg, \u2019n Wes-Kaapse polisiewoordvoerder, het by navraag ges\u00ea die polisie het met \u2019n geregtelike doodsondersoek begin.<\/p>\n
Paarl Post verstaan dat Le Roux se gesin Maandag haar lyk gaan uitken het.<\/p>\n
Le Roux se broer, Franco, het Dinsdag aan Paarl Post ges\u00ea hul ouers, Annette en Daniel Bartolomeu (DB) le Roux, is hard deur die voorval getref.<\/p>\n
\u201cVasti het tot onlangs toe nog by ons ouers gewoon. Met hulle wat ouer raak, was sy maar die een wat altyd vir hulle daar was. Hulle hanteer die nuus dus glad nie goed nie.<\/p>\n
\u201cSy was iemand wat regtig altyd uit haar pad gegaan het om ander te help. Sy het sterk Christelike en morele waardes gehad en dit het gewys in die manier waarop sy haar werk gedoen en mense hanteer het. Vasti was \u2019n avontuurlustige mens wat lief was vir die natuur en diere. Ons het \u2019n blom verloor, maar ons weet sy is nou by Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n
Elandi van Zyl, een van Le Roux se beste vriendinne, s\u00ea Le Roux se dood laat \u2019n groot leemte.<\/p>\n
\u201cVasti was \u2019n vriendin soos geen ander nie. Ons was baie na aan mekaar.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHoewel ek nie strooimeisies by my troue gehad het nie, het sy die rol van hoofstrooimeisie vervul. Sy het \u2019n baie mooi toespraak gelewer en weer eens die fondasie van ons vriendskap hervestig,\u201d s\u00ea Van Zyl.<\/p>\n
\u201cEk het Vasti deur die kerk ontmoet. Ons was albei in daardie stadium deel van die Every Nation-gemeente in die Paarl. Sy was soos \u2019n suster vir my. Sy het werklik die definisie van vriendskap na die volgende vlak gevat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Van Zyl s\u00ea Le Roux se dood kom etlike maande nadat sy (Van Zyl) haar broer in \u2019n motorongeluk verloor het.<\/p>\n
Nog \u2019n vriendin, Juanri du Toit, wat sedert 2015 haarkapper- en skoonheidswerk saam met Le Roux gedoen het, het aan Paarl Post ges\u00ea baie van Le Roux se kli\u00ebnte rou ook haar dood.<\/p>\n
\u201cDit spreek boekdele van die soort mens wat sy was. Baie van die kinders wie se hare sy gereeld gesny het, se harte is seer oor Tannie Vasti wat nie meer gaan kom kuier nie. Haar passie vir haar werk was aansteeklik en jy kon dit sien in die gehalte van haar werk. Sy het elke oomblik van haar werk en tyd saam met haar kli\u00ebnte geniet.\u201d<\/p>\n
Du Toit s\u00ea sy sal Le Roux onthou as iemand wat altyd sterk in haar geloof gestaan het.<\/p>\n
\u201cSy wou alles volgens die boek (die Bybel) doen. Sy was nooit tevrede met tweede beste nie en sou eerder iets nie doen nie as om iets te doen waaroor sy nie tevrede of onrustig voel nie. Nie net verloor ek my beste maatjie nie, maar ek ook my sussie en my kollega.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2019n Gedenkdiens word vir Saterdag (28 Oktober) beplan. Le Roux word Maandag (30 Oktober) ter ruste gel\u00ea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
