Obiturary
Deepest sympathy to Simon, Melanie & family on the tragic loss of their son Nathan Bongers. The Bongers family were very much part of the Zeekoevlei Community and have been associated with the Club & Western Cape sailing for many many years.
The Memorial Service for Nathan will be held on Thursday 24th August at 14h00 at the United Church, 28 Bright Street, Somerset West. Tea will be held at Long Ridge Restaurant, Eikendal Road, R44 after the service.
Best Wishes,
on behalf of ZVYC,
Kathryn
