AARTSBISKOP DESMOND TUTU
- ‘N MORELE BAKEN IN ONSTUIMIGE TYE
Dit is met groot hartseer wat ons verneem het van die heengaan van Aartsbiskop Desmond Tutu. Ons opregte simpatie en meegevoel met sy familie en vriende, die geloofsgemeenskap en ook elke Suid-Afrikaner.
Aartsbiskop Desmond Tutu sal onthou word as ‘n morele baken in onstuimige tye gedurende die stryd teen apartheid en ook as ‘n baken vir geregtigheid in onlangse jare. Daarvoor sal hy onthou word.
Mag hy in vrede rus.
