Great and fond memories I have for Marlou. We interacted well during their long stay in Zimbabwe and at the University of Zimbabwe. She attended many parties at IHE and one could easily mistake her for a fellow student. She fitted in well in any society. The van der Zaags hosted many gatherings at their house which was walking distance from the university. They looked after Ropi and Runyararo from birth. Obviously this great show of support would not have materialised if Marlou was not in full support. I stayed at their house in Delft for a few weeks when they went away on holiday. A very accommodating family. Last year when Pieter fell ill she asked me to communicate with her directly on all issues which Pieter would have dealt with me directly. That way support for education for Ropi and Runyararo went uninterrupted. She took so much care to see Pieter recover and now just departs without a chance for Pieter to reciprocate. Life is cruel. We hope you are in a better world now. Thanks for all you did which we will always cherish.
