So many good memories: Prof Este in her white lab coat walking very fast from her home in Venter Street to Physiology Building with a small dog 'Stompie' (she saved him from somewhere) at her heels. Prof Este behind her desk covered with files and photocopies, writing those 300+ publications, in pen during the early days. Prof Este driving Ig's red pick up truck ('bakkie'), stacked with a freezer and boxes filled with lab stuff, into the rural areas of North West province. She led a large multi-disciplinary team in the THUSA study. And when it was hot in those rural areas, she drove back into town to buy ice-cream for everyone. So many researchers started their careers in this team and learned from her. Thank you for all the advice, feedback ("spoggerig!") and fun times we shared with 'binnepret".
