On September 8, the earthly journey of Nkosazana-Ri’shayla Juan Roslyn Forte-Chandler reached its end.
And yesterday, surrounded by family, friends and well-wishers, she was buried in the St Leonard’s Anglican Church graveyard.
The congregation attending the funeral was so large there seemed to be almost as many people outside the church as inside as there was not nearly enough room inside for the number of people who came to wish Forte-Chandler farewell.
Forte-Chandler was active in many spheres, from the church to scouting to education and made a multitude of friends in each. (CA)
