Farewell to an Old Friend

Madelaine Mlungwana : 26/12/1956 – 14/06/2015 

Hamba uxolile Mama Madelaine! Go in peace our Mother Madelaine! 

Sizokukhumbula. We will miss you! 

It is so difficult to believe that Maddy has left us after 33 years, her loss has left a great sadness here at Umngazi and I am sure around the country, and indeed the world. Knowing that we all have very special memories of Maddy will ensure that her smile as well as her dancing on the bar counter with everybody will forever live on at Umngazi River Bungalows, at Basils Bar as well as in all our hearts and minds. 

‘May the road rise to meet you, 

May the wind be always at your back, 

May the sun shine warm upon your face..’
