    It is with great sadness that we confirm the passing of Joost. He passed away in his home surrounded by his loved ones.

    He will be sorely missed

    @ superBul:
    Hi superBul thank you for posting that confirmation here. Someone at work who knows how much love rugby told me just before I left for lunch. So it was apt that Mango Groove CD was in my cars player and was able to listen to their version of Kinders van die wind. Anyone looking close enough from the outside may have wondered about the tear that waa shedding.
