It was with great shock and sadness to learn of the sudden passing away of Morena Ashley Mabogoane on Friday, 3 February following a short struggle with lung cancer at the youthful age of 64.

It is true that it often takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence and absence to value presence.

With other executives and our lifetime partners, we would regularly go on conferences and trips. I remember, like it was just the other day, when we went to the launch of the Toyota Landcruiser Prado VX at Gerotec, the Audi Q7 later, took the Transnet’s Blue Train from Pretoria to Cape Town when Tata Sakumuzi Macozoma was Transnet’s Group CEO, Morena Mbhazima Shilowa the Premier of Gauteng, and so on.

The founding vision still stands: “To ensure that informal Black Business becomes part of the mainstream of the South African economy.” The owner of, among other entities, 4 Degrees East, Sefako and his wife Molly Mabogoane recently celebrated his 60th birthday, and that this venue had been graded as a three-star, just the other year.
