Dear all,

Bobbi Bear has asked us to inform you that Sdudla's 7 year old son passed away last Saturday. He drowned while swimming in the river.

Obviously, the whole Bobbi Bear team is devastated by this news, as are we.

Bobbi Bear would like to ask all volunteers to send an e-mail of support to Sdudla at bobbibear@lantic.net. As is customary in the Zulu culture, these e-mails will be read out loud during the funeral on Saturday.

We'd like to wish Sdudla and her family all the strength during these times.

The letters can be addressed to Sdudla & Gogo (Sdudla's mother).

This message reminded me of this poem:


Stop all the clocks, cut of the telephone
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone
Silence the pianos and with a muffled drum

Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead
Put crêpe bows round the white necks of the public doves
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves

He was my North, my South, my East and West
My workingweek and my Sundayrest
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong

The stars are not wanted now, put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood
For nothing now can ever come to any good




Take Care,
Nienke
