Friends and family gathered at St Stithians College Chapel in Johannesburg on 17 June 2010 to mourn the death of Zenani Mandela, the great-granddaughter of Nelson Mandela.

Thirteen-year-old Zenani was killed in a car accident in the early hours of June 11, 2010, after attending the 2010 FIFA World Cup Kick-off Concert in Orlando, Soweto.

“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.” — Nelson Mandela

We know all South Africans and indeed the world join us in this profound sense of loss and sadness on the death of our beloved Founder, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela.

Our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences are with the Mandela Family and friends at this time.

Let us stand together now and in the days ahead, and do what needs to be done to honour with dignity Tata Madiba. We know you share with many of us the same passionate wish to see Nelson Mandela’s legacy being kept alive and made available to the world.

His legacy lives on in all of us – it is in our hands now.

Hamba kahle Madiba.
