She was excellent.” Morning Live’s Simphiwe Ncongwane says: “I’m still finding it incredibly difficult to accept that she is no more.

But for our sake and the family it’s important to release her.”In a poem, her sister, Nonhlanhla paid a loving tribute: “Your heart can be empty because you cannot see her. Or you can be full of love that she shared with you.
