A couple lost their beloved dog and everything they owned when their home burnt to the ground.
Amid South Africans’ jubilation over the Rugby World Cup victory, a Steiltes, Mbombela, family was struck by a devastating loss last Saturday.
While watching the rugby with friends just down the road, Riaan heard about the fire when his neighbour phoned at about 22:00. “The Bible meant the world to me because my grandmother gave it to me, and it has been a blessing that I treasured. “He was a joy, a breath of fresh air, full of love and always happy to be around us. His warm, loving personality will be missed beyond words.”Riaan described his house as a place of family gatherings, a warm home always filled with love and beautiful memories. “I lost everything in the house; I was only left with the clothes I was wearing.”
