OT: RIP Francois Visagie

[Nakkiran Sunassee]

It is with great sadness that I received the news that Francois Visagie passed away on Wednesday night :(

A true gentleman, he was always ready to assist or advise on landy-/overlanding-related matters.

RIP Francois

Oh no.

That is terrible news.

He always had such knowledgeable comments and insights, a person you listened to when they talked.

RIP Francois, you'll be sorely missed.

Message from Lindy, Francois's wife:

Sal jy asb vir almal op julle groep sê hoe baie Francois julle klomp geniet het.

Vandag is beter...dis n lam-dag...maar beter.

Soos hy sou sê "Swambo says to tell the group" :)

I have unsubscribed Francois's email address from the group. I note that he subscribed in Nov 2007. His last post to this forum was on 22 August. I am quite curious as to what happened to him ? It seemed quite sudden...

Hennie,

He was only 59. Cause of death still unknown.  He passed away in his sleep.  They should know in about 2 weeks time.

I have read about the unfortunate passing of this gentlemen ; there have been a lot of news with similar sudden deaths ; I have lost two friends with similar cases during the covid early wave prior to omicron ; I also caught a heavy bout of covid during omicron and decided to be treated at home via my friend and doctor living in jhb ; one of the issues amply discussed between us in the what's app com's was the need to take daily blood thinners e.g. xeralto or aspirin 100mg cardio tabs due to the potential  clotting problems ; I am not saying that that is ? Was ? The issue but a significant number of sudden deaths coming now because of cardiac failures ; rgds ; Joao Felizardo

Terrible news, never met him personally but he always came across as someone I'd gladly share a beer and campsite with.
