On the day it was evident that she is loved and adored by all, as friends and family gathered around to celebrate this joyous occasion with her. All those present wanted to wish her a happy birthday and the children showcased their delight of being part of this by doing some traditional Griekwasong and dance for her and with an ever so evident smile on her face we could tell that “Ouma Bet” was thankful and enjoyed all the attention.
