From South Africa, Johannesburg. I run my own salon from home and have
some crazy clients that want their hair done at un-godly hours. So if
you are around pop in for a coffee, chat and a hairdo!
Well here are up dated pics as requested in Family Chat as I was told
mine was not great!
The one all done up like a doll was when I went with my nephew to his
High School Prom!
The others are from the most favorite past time of mine besides chatting
in Family Chat, and that is SCUBA DIVING! The are taken in Durban at
Ushaka Marine World and Sodwana Bay in Mozambeque!
Take care and see you ALL in Family Chat
Family Chat has lost another family member. RaveAngel was one of the most
vibrant, beautiful young women ever to grace us with her company and friendship.
Despite her battle with Cancer, she would come into Family Chat and make us all
laugh and cheer us all up. Many never knew of her battle, she always had such a
zest for living.
She meant so very much to so many of us.... simply put, we all loved her.
Obviously she felt the same way about her Family Chat family. Before her death,
she took the time to write a poem for her IRC friends. Even in her last days,
she thought of comforting others. Personally, I miss her... I mourn her passing...
I am so sad... but through my tears as I reread her Poem, I feel her presence
and am thankful to have known and loved her. Rest well Raver, you earned it.

It was always a pleasure to chat with you. You brought something special to
#Family_chat. Despite your suffering you always remained upbeat and positive
- enjoying life and living it to the full. One of your favourite sayings,
which summed up your philosophy of life, and which was the IRC quit message
I'll always remember you for was: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave
with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other
- body thoroughly used up - totally worn out and screaming "whoo hoo what a ride!"
RaveAngel, you did good - enjoy what awaits you now, you've earned it :-)
Love from JJ
The day I had to leave you, When my life on earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me
And now I say to you
My God gave me a list of things, He wished for me to do
And foremost on that list of mine is to watch and care for you
To my dearest family, So many things I'd like to say
But first of all to let you know that I have arrived OK
I'm writing this from Heaven, Where I dwell with God above
Where there is no more tears of sadness
There is just eternal love
Please do not be unhappy, Just because I'm out of sight
Remember I'm with you every morning, noon and night
I will be beside you every day and week and year
And when you're sad I'm standing there to wipe away a tear
And when you lay in bed at night The day's chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night
But one thing is for certain, Though my life on earth is no more
I am closer to you now then I ever was before
When you are walking down the street
And you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind
And when you feel that gentle breeze or the wind upon your face
That's me giving you a hug or just a soft embrace
And I will always love you from that magical land above
