DE BEERS ARE PART OF SOUTH AFRICA'S CRIME STATISTICS
It is with a heavy heart that i relay another horrifiying attack.
On the 20 February 2009 Hester Antoinnette Kirsten (nee de Beer) was brutally murdered in her home in King William's Town, at the age of 89, she was born in 1920. A dear great aunt of mine. I who follow the family geneology (tree) quite diligently am saddened by the information I need to fill in. She lived alone in her house where she has been staying for the last 60years. She had no children and her husband had died 46 years ago. Her whole life revolved around the NG Kerk in King William's Town and helping the community. Every one knew her as Tanie Ousie in KWT.
She loved gardening and her cats. Her gardener who had been working for her for 20+ years had taken it upon himself to end her life, steal her belongings break what he could and leave her home in such a mess. He had forced her into the kitchen, beat her on her head with a blunt object several times, crushing her skull and left her to bleed to death while he went on with his merry ransacking of her home. This gardener has been caught without remorse he openly admitted what he has done. He had no particular reason to kill her. Where is the JUSTICE? Is it possible to just wake up one morning and decide to prey on an innocent person and kill for the fun of it?
It was a large funeral with many de Beers i had never met before. Many old aunties and uncles there was a Sarrie, a Marie a Kleina who were nee de Beers that i had met. They are from Swellendam, Cradock, Somerset East etc. From my line of deBeers there were so many, now only handfulls.
I end by saying keep on sending your blogs and mail, thouroughly enjoying them
