He completed his doctorate at Imperial College London but returned to his home country and married Audrey Goldman in They learned that their son, Keith, who was not at home at the time, was on a security branch list of activists. The organisation shared information about legal rights, generated publicity and helped families link up with the Black Sash, medical professionals, psychologists, business people, academics and human rights lawyers.
These are currently lodged with the Historical Papers Archive at Wits. At the turn of the decade he was also appointed as a commissioner of the broad-based Human Rights Committee that was set up following the banning of the DPSC, which continued to help to raise awareness about state violence in the build-up to the first democratic elections in Dr Coleman, along with his wife, received the Order of Luthuli in Silver conferred by President Cyril Ramaphosa in November for his contribution to the struggle for democracy, human rights, nation-building, justice and peace and conflict resolution.
At his memorial service speakers paid tribute to Dr Coleman as a man of few words, who had the ability to listen intently. His actions reflected kindness: he never turned anyone away or refused to give help. He paid attention to the details in all areas of his life. A nature lover, he made careful notes on shells, birds and music and marvelled at the mechanics of how things worked. Max was a humanist: solid, trustworthy, he was consistent and, in his deepest self, unchanging — regardless of his audience.
We can draw a straight line connecting his values to his words and his actions. With his sights set on studying medicine, Dr Noble did an aptitude test through the Department of Labour and was told he stood little chance. His luck turned when, two weeks after the academic year started, he was called to study medicine at Wits.
In his first year he achieved two firsts and in his final year, he came third in his class of 92 students. Dr Noble was a keen sportsman and decided to study sports medicine simultaneously with orthopaedics. He was one of the first doctors to focus on a treatment for different sports injuries. He served as a medical adviser for cricket, rugby, football and boxing in South Africa. In he was one of the founders of the first sports medicine clinic in South Africa.
As part of his interest in protecting boxers from injury he studied the cushioning properties of boxing gloves and his findings influenced the way that boxing gloves are manufactured today. In his retirement in he moved to Plettenberg Bay and ran run a historic country guest house in The Crags, with his wife Colleen of nearly 60 years. He is survived by his wife, three children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
She completed a degree in mathematics and physics at Wits before immigrating to Israel in and joining the Hagana, the defence organisation that was the precursor to the Israel Defense Forces. She then joined a diplomatic course and met Chaim Herzog; the two married in She was seriously wounded in a bombing attack in Herzog served in various public positions over the years. She helped found the International Bible Contest, which is still held annually, and she founded and led the Council for a Beautiful Israel, a non-profit environmental group that remains active.
The couple had four children. Angove served the Actuarial Society of South Africa as an examiner for many years. She initially studied psychology but discovered actuarial science which become her true passion. She started her actuarial career working as a consulting actuary at Quindiem, and then combined her enthusiasm of teaching and actuarial science by taking on a major-time lectureship at Wits.
She was deeply committed to her students and took special care in being accessible, supportive and nurturing. Her projects across Africa have been instrumental in developing risk protection. In she also took on a part-time role with the Financial Services Board which became the Financial Sector Conduct Authority and was involved in supporting the development of microinsurance regulation. She was a member of the Products Standards Working Group commissioned by National Treasury in and an observer member of the MicroInsurance Network and a member of the associated working group.
She coordinated the A2ii's regional implementation work in Sub-Saharan Africa, strengthening cooperation and supporting capacity building for supervisors in the region. She also supported various projects of the Finmark Trust over the years and most recently served as a member of the FSD Network where she presented at seminars and moderated forums.
Her sessions for the A2ii and FSD Network were extremely well-received reflecting her dedication to the task as well as her well-honed teaching skills. She lived in Parkview with her cheerful household menagerie and was committed to the community as a member of the Rotary chapter. She leaves behind her mother Barbra, brother David and his family.
Her Wits colleagues will miss her cheerful nature and unfailing willingness to lend a hand or offer support. He matriculated at Christian Brothers' College in Boksburg in He specialised in obstetrics and gynaecology after working as a general practitioner in Pretoria, and thereafter devoted his career to academic medicine. Following his specialisation in anatomical pathology, he excelled and became Professor and head of the Department of Anatomical Pathology at Stellenbosch University and Tygerberg Hospital, a position he held from September to February During his tenure, he contributed significantly to the development of cytopathology and the correlation of cytological findings with histological diagnoses, a relatively new concept at that time.
He was highly regarded and much loved as a lecturer, receiving the Rector's Award for Outstanding Teaching in Undergraduate and postgraduate students never missed an opportunity to attend his teaching sessions - even if they were held at 07h00 in the morning. He was a mentor to senior staff, and his door was always open to those seeking advice on how to manage recalcitrant colleagues and challenging students.
His opinion was always invaluable, as he was wise, kind, and, while unfailingly fair, always knew how to find a diplomatic way to deal with a problem. Just being in his presence somehow induced a sense of calm and wellbeing. After retiring as head of department in , Professor Wranz took up a part-time sessional appointment in the Department of Anatomical Pathology, devoting his efforts to the teaching and training of registrars.
Professor Wranz faced many health challenges courageously and did not allow them to dampen his enthusiasm for life. Shortly before his death, he was diagnosed with a large aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. Since open surgery was regarded as too risky, he decided on a non-invasive procedure. Technically, inserting an aortic stent went well, but he developed multiorgan failure.
On 18 December , he passed away peacefully in the presence of his family. As usual, he faced this great challenge with dignity and courage. Professor Wranz was a real gentleman and a sincere, even-tempered, softly spoken, friendly, modest and loyal person of integrity. He valued friends and colleagues and enjoyed close contact with students as head of the Private Students' Organisation at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University.
A devoted family man, he dearly loved, supported and encouraged his children and grandchildren in their endeavours and set an example of how to live a meaningful life of compassion. Accompanied by his wife Elsefie and their children, he continued visiting his family and friends in Austria and Germany following his retirement. To the very end, he was a fanatical Formula 1 enthusiast; he was a Lewis Hamilton fan. Music played an important role in his life, from Austrian Bauernmusik to light jazz and pop.
However, classical music such as Beethoven's Emperor and Triple concertos, the great violin concertos, Mozart's compositions, and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf singing Strauss's 'Vier letzte Lieder' provided many hours of listening pleasure. Born in South Africa, Watt always had an aptitude for maths and science. After completion of this PhD, Watts returned to South Africa to work for Ove Arup where he designed bridges and managed construction projects.
This led to his selection as project manager for the revolutionary Centre Pompidou in Paris. He learned to speak, read and write French fluently in six months at the beginning of his tenure as project manager. After Paris, he worked in the Ove Arup London office for four years before emigrating to Texas with his family in He formed Brian Watt Associates, after working for Shell, which became renowned for designing pioneering deep water drilling platforms and floating island technology used in the Arctic.
Following a rich and diverse professional career in engineering and business, he retired to a life of sailing. During that time he remarried, visited remote islands, explored new cultures and survived sailing through a cyclone and visited over 40 countries. In a severe car accident in Louisiana left him permanently disabled. He had to give up sailing but enjoyed many years living near in Key Largo, Florida before moving to Texas in He lived a life of learning, adventure, mentorship. His tenacity, intellect, generosity changed the lives of those he knew and loved.
He was 90 years old. Born in Klerksdorp on 7 October , Archbishop Tutu was raised by his teacher father, Zachariah, and domestic worker mother, Aletta. When he was 12, his middle-class family moved to Ventersdorp. At the age of 14 he contracted tuberculosis and over the course of 20 months in hospital he developed a lifelong friendship with Father Trevor Huddleston, who became his religious inspiration and mentor.
He became a teacher instead after graduating from the University of South Africa. A year later, he married Nomalizo Leah Shenxane. He resigned from his missionary school teaching post, opting instead for a career in the church. In he received his licentiate in theology and was ordained as a priest in He was persuaded to take up the post of general secretary of the South Council of Churches between and and through this role, Archbishop Tutu became a national and international figure.
He embraced both abusers and the abused. Archbishop Tutu had a close link with Wits. He also participated in the general life of the University through advice and addressing innumerable meetings. In when Archbishop Tutu was prevented from visiting the United States to receive an honorary degree from Columbia University, Wits acted as host to the conferment of the degree by the President of Columbia University. In he included Wits in his 80th birthday celebrations with a lecture series to celebrate youth, interfaith dialogue, and non-violent methods of protest, despite his close friend the Dalai Lama being denied a visa to attend the celebrations.
He spoke on causes including corrupt governance, global warming and autocratic rulers. He communicated freely with tears and shrieks of delight. His self-deprecating humour and authenticity endeared him to many. Stephens was born in Boksburg to James and Maud Cawood and grew up in a civic-minded family.
Her father served on the Boksburg Town Council for 22 years and was mayor from until and again in She was deputy head girl of Boksburg High School and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry and applied mathematics in She then took time out to start her family before going back to work for East Rand Gold and Uranium from till In the later part of her career, she was involved with mentoring young graduates doing research and development work.
In she moved to Impala Platinum Refineries and was promoted in to chief chemist, first in the Nickel and Copper Laboratory and then in the Platinum Metals Laboratory. She served on numerous community committees both at local government and on a professional level and in most instances as chairman.
She served for 24 years as a councillor and was later awarded the title of Alderman for her many years of dedication and service. Boksburg grew and prospered during this time and went on to become a city. During her time in local government, she spearheaded the building of the Boksburg Library, helped get the Strelitzia Service Centre and Cosmos Home for senior citizens built, fought to get pensioner rebates for rates introduced and obtained concessions for disabled motorists.
She stopped the old Post Office from being demolished and got it declared a historical monument, and also campaigned for the revamping of the Boksburg North swimming pool to meet Olympic standards. In her early 60s she was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer but was asked to stay on and consult even though she was undergoing treatment. She beat breast cancer and would generously give her time to supporting fundraising initiatives and encouraging other breast cancer survivors.
After her retirement she also served as an external assessor on the Wits Admissions Board. Stephens enjoyed gardening, travelling, playing bridge and spending time with her family and friends. She is remembered for her courage, mentoring of others and astute bridge skills. She had an enormous zest for life and love for her family and friends. She believed that personal fulfilment comes from having a well-rounded life. She is survived by her three children Raymond, Brett and Debbie and beloved granddaughter, Sarah.
Professor Distiller received his medical degree from Wits and qualified as a physician, obtaining his FCP SA in , subsequently sub-specialising in endocrinology and diabetes. He returned to South Africa in and entered private practice. He was an active participant for number of international study groups and workshops related to diabetes and is on the Central Operational Committee for several large international clinical trials.
Professor Distiller authored over 80 scientific publications, presented at a number of international diabetes conferences and was on the editorial board of four publications. He was a member of the International Diabetes Federation Guideline committee. At the CDE, he understood that enabling patients to control their diabetes was the most efficacious method to treat the disease and he initiated the diabetes-team approach to diabetes.
Every patient was assigned not only a physician but an educator, dietician, biokineticist, podiatrist, and possibly even a psychologist to ensure diabetic longevity. The results showed improved diabetes control in the community under his care. Professor Distiller was a keen wildlife enthusiast and an avid rugby and cricket fan. He is survived by his children, grandchildren and second wife Barbara.
Dr Barry Lovius BDS , who died on 30 November , was one such teacher and is remembered with fondness and gratitude by those who studied under him. He then moved to Rhodesia now Zimbabwe where he gained valuable experience in a dental practice in Salisbury now Harare.
He moved to London and completed a post-graduate orthodontic course at the Eastman Hospital. In , he moved to Liverpool to take up the position of senior registrar at the Liverpool Dental Hospital and shortly afterwards he was appointed senior lecturer in orthodontics at Liverpool University, a position he retained until his retirement in The care and treatment of children with cranio-facial deformities calls not only for skill and knowledge but also for exceptional patience, perseverance and, above all, empathy; all qualities with which Dr Lovius was particularly gifted.
In his dealings with his colleagues he was noted for his interest in promoting diversity, the generosity with which he gave of his time, his honesty and integrity and his refusal to bow to political expediency. These things were also noted and appreciated by his students as was his sense of humour and his unstinting commitment to their learning and their welfare. In he retired but he did not, however, stop working.
He moved to Aberdeen to take up a full-time locum consultant post at the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. To that position he again brought his customary dedication, seeing patients not only in the orthodontic department of the hospital but also in several outlying clinics, including Elgin and Orkney. When he finally stopped working at the age of 70, he turned his attention to supporting his wife, Alison, in the final years of her career as a teacher of French, accompanying her first to Devon and later to Berlin.
Dr Lovius died peacefully at his home in Formby and leaves his wife, Alison, four children from his first marriage to Jean Grant and seven grandchildren. He was born on 12 October , the son of Herbert, a chartered accountant and Ruth Chadwick Arridge, who emigrated to South Africa in Arridge was exposed to the work done at the Bernard Price Institute and the early days of radar. Our textbook was The Radio Amateurs Handbook which told us about conventional radio but not about the microwave world brought about by the then secret cavity magnetron.
This worked at 3cm wavelength and used waveguides. All of us had to learn pretty rapidly about microwaves! His background was in maths and engineering, and his main interest developed around the problems of fibre-reinforced materials, which he applied as chair of the Department of Physics at the University of Bristol in He also fitted in well in both undergraduate teaching and in the teaching of the MSc course on the physics of materials. He married Mary Elizabeth Humphrey in and had two sons, Simon and Richard, and a daughter, Helen, who passed away in infancy.
There was also a 20th Century Fox Cinema not far away from the Metro. In one or other of these cinemas I remember sitting through nearly four hours of Gone with the Wind with a useful interval halfway through. Jeppe Street I remember as the site of the New Post Office, with several floors and a selection of Post Office boxes to which one had an individual key in order to access any mail.
I was sent up by my father to collect letters. After qualifying in , he worked in various positions mines, he moved-up the ranks to the head office of a large listed gold mining company. He held directorship and chairman positions at listed entities mining for gold, uranium, coal and platinum. In he married Valerie Perryman, and they had two children, David and Christine. Later he completed a senior managers programme at Harvard and a diploma in clinical organisational psychology from the well-known French business school, Insead.
Technically, Knobbs never retired and ventured into various businesses from mining to retail. At heart he wanted to help those struggling in life especially those of university age which led to him being a lecturer to honours students at the University of Pretoria. While his responsibility was to teach mining design and techniques, he started to look beyond this and drew on his organisational psychology knowledge to help students grow personally and create a career path.
Personally, he was an enthusiastic reader of books, fly fisherman, classical music lover, avid theatre-goer and traveller with his wife Valerie, he was involved in promoting start-up businesses in Somerset West and participated with Valerie in a food scheme for a local area that suffered from mass unemployment. He was born and educated in Johannesburg and completed his medical degree at Wits in After completing his internship, he spent time as a resident in internal medicine, orthopaedic surgery and finally radiology.
He climbed the academic ladder at Tufts University School of Medicine, becoming a full professor of radiology in , and of neurology in He initiated a fellowship training programme, training 36 fellows between and , and also started the Boston Neuroradiology Club. He was active in the American Society of Neuroradiology as both treasurer and president, he was an editor at the American Journal of Neuroradiology and as a charter board member of the American Society of paediatric radiology.
In June , because of his interest in and publications on paediatric neuroradiology, Dr Wolpert received a Special Recognition Award from the American Society of Paediatric Neuroradiology. He has had multiple speaking engagements, in the United States and overseas, and was Vice-President of the New England Roentgen Ray Society, as well as a member of numerous radiological societies.
He retired to Santa Fe with his wife Cynthia, with whom he had been married for 76 years. She preceded him in death in March He is survived by his three children and a grandchild. He was He served on the academic staff at Wits for nearly 30 years, retiring as an associate professor in Professor Boden studied architecture, town and regional planning and urban design. In , he completed his doctorate at the University of Washington in Seattle. He began his career working as an architect before joining Rand Mines Properties, where he gained valuable experience in urban planning.
In , the joined the then fledgling Department of Town and Regional Planning at Wits and contributed centrally to its progress. He was also active on many university committees, including campus planning and library administration. Professor Boden was passionate about urban design and about teaching, inspiring many students to develop their creative and practical skills in the field, and heading the urban design programme.
Boden advised the Johannesburg and Sandton town councils on matters relating to town planning and design and supported local resident associations. In his retirement, he returned to architecture, designing churches, school extensions and private homes. He also had the opportunity to explore his interests in art, books, history and travel.
He is survived by his wife, three children, and seven grandchildren. Clarke was passionate about municipal electrical engineering and ran numerous successful projects. He was born on 15 February in Butterworth, in the Eastern Cape, where he spent his formative years. After his graduation at Wits, Clarke completed his pupillage in the East London area. While in the UK he met a young Australian nurse, Eileen, whom he later married and with whom he had three daughters. They returned to South Africa and Clarke was appointed as the town electrical engineer in Somerset East in Here he ran the electricity department, which included a coal-fired power station, for 16 years.
In they moved to Newcastle in Natal, where Clarke took on the challenge of reconstructing the electrical infrastructure of the little town that was to become a boomtown due to the giant steelworks, lscor, opening a second plant there.
Clarke later moved to the Randburg Municipality, which was then a rural town with agricultural smallholdings. There were plans to establish the area as another economic hub along with modern housing and large commercial undertakings. He built an electricity department from the ground up, managing the design and construction of buildings and infrastructure, and appointing staff.
He retired in , but continued to work for the Association of Municipal Electricity. He led by example with passion, energy and knowledge. He was a renowned biophysicist in the field of bioenergetics, expert in mathematical modelling of molecular machines and biological oscillations. Professor Caplan was born in in London, but grew up in South Africa and was educated at Wits, receiving his bachelor of science degree cum laude in in chemical engineering and his PhD in focusing on physical chemistry of macromolecules in solution.
He then worked at the National Chemical Laboratory in Teddington in England until , when he moved for two years to the NIH as a visiting scientist. Following a sabbatical leave at the Weizmann Institute , he immigrated to Israel and became an associate professor at the Weizmann Institute as of In he became a full professor. Subsequent to the foundation of the Department of Membrane Research by Ora Kedem, Professor Caplan succeeded her as departmental chair He chaired the department again in In he became a Professor Emeritus but continued to be scientifically active.
His studies at the Weizmann Institute were first focused on energy conversion processes and systems, with an emphasis on membrane transport. He, together with Ora Kedem and Aharon Katzir, developed a new approach to such systems — non-equilibrium thermodynamics. As of the mid-seventies, his group started to study in addition to thermodynamics of transport processes through biological membranes the properties, kinetics, and proton-pump activity of bacteriorhodopsin in the purple membrane of archaea wrongly considered then as halobacteria.
These were the first years of studying bacteriorhodopsin and his group published ample of papers in leading journals about this. When Professor Caplan approached retirement, he mainly focused on mathematical modelling of molecular machines. These included, among many others, microscopic reversibility in enzyme kinetics, electrochemical potential, and the mechanism of rotation of the flagellar motor. His legacy is encapsulated in the piano classics and keyboard melodies he performed in many auditoriums, churches and school halls.
Gardiner was brought up in an era when swing, big bands and jazz were popular and he was influenced by pianists such as Carmen Cavallaro and Dave Brubeck. Gardiner was born in Queenstown, now Komani, to Dr Ivor and Bernadine Gardiner and was schooled at Queen's College, to which he returned regularly throughout his life to give fundraising concerts. A severe illness at an early age prevented any meaningful participation in robust sport so his mother, a pianist, encouraged Gardiner to learn to play the piano.
As a schoolboy he put his talent to good use by playing at assemblies and at raucous inter-schools rugby matches where he could be found at the keyboard of a honkytonk piano to the great delight of the crowd. At Wits he obtained his music degree and proceeded to London where he spent a year acquiring his performer's licentiate.
He spent many happy years in East London with his wife Nell and his three growing children until Nell fell ill in the early s and the family moved to Cape Town for specialised treatment. His elegant style and delicate touch in shows enchanted listeners all over the country. He is survived by his son, Ivor, daughters Debra and Julia, eight grandchildren, seven great grandchildren and many devoted fans.
Their pioneering research drew attention to the relationships between health, disease and social injustice. Her mother, Lily Rolnick Stein, was a homemaker. They worked as a team and conducted hundreds of studies, many of which shaped the field of epidemiology and community healthcare. Professors Stein and Susser, along with their three children, emigrated to Britain in after the arrests of many colleagues.
Initially they lived in boarding houses and worried about money. Professor Stein worked nights in a mental hospital and after a year, Professor Susser found work at the University of Manchester and Professor Stein followed, working as a researcher. In the family moved to United States, and they both found their academic home at Columbia University. Professor Stein began teaching first as an associate professor of epidemiology, then earning a full professorship and assuming administrative positions in what is now the Mailman School of Public Health in During this time their seminal work, the Dutch Famine, was published.
It examined a nine-month period of malnutrition during World War II. They argued that babies exposed to famine prenatally were more likely to have cognitive deficits, and elevated congenital nervous system anomalies including neural tube defects. These results helped lead to clinical trials to investigate the role of folate in pregnancy, and eventually to a recommendation that all pregnant women consume folic acid daily.
It is now one of the largest centres of its kind in the world, employing about investigators and staff members in the study of HIV across different disciplines, including psychology, psychiatry, public health, anthropology, sociology and social work.
They told of her fondness for South African treats such as rooibos tea, Peppermint Crisp chocolates as well as the annual visits to the country post-democracy. In his first year, he registered for a mechanical engineering degree, but switched to civil engineering.
I slotted into a career that has been a perfect fit. He was a bursar of the City of Johannesburg and remained in service to the City until His distinguished career eventually took him to the position of deputy city engineer roads, before becoming director of metropolitan planning. He worked with provincial and state departments and had a hand in realising projects such as the construction of the M1 and M2, and the development of Newtown.
After he played a meaningful role in the transformation process of the Johannesburg City Council. In Pirie joined the then South African Association of Consulting Engineers now CESA as executive director and during the next 18 years, until his retirement in , was active in the local and international consulting engineering fraternity. He helped establish the School of Consulting Engineers and worked with others in negotiating the Construction Industry Charter, which became the legislated template guiding black economic empowerment in the sector at the time.
He had keen interests in reading, photography, swimming, birding and wildlife in general. It was one of very few universities in the world where Jews of limited means really were and, crucially, really felt welcome, and where they could get an outstandingly good university education, nearly free.
The two young people in this dog-eared photograph were proud and grateful beneficiaries of that good fortune. Both knew that there were many ways in which they had been very lucky, and both were very much aware of the obligations that this created. Between them are their parents, the gentle and self-effacing Arnold, who had shown some promise at school, but had to leave at 16 to earn a living, and the fiercely loving and formidable Ethel nee Roomer , who left school even earlier. Neither got as much education as they had hoped for, and they both prized it deeply.
So, as you can tell, the Daguts thought that having two graduates in the family was a big moment, worthy of their smartest clothes and of being captured using expensive colour film. Merton was later to endow an award for the best student in economics I in memory of his parents and their commitment to learning. Maureen and Merton never strayed very far from Wits.
Maureen worked at the South African Institute for Medical Research and, after her marriage to another Wits graduate, Leslie Meyerson BCom taught high school biology for many years. In the mids, Maureen returned to Wits to update her knowledge in microbiology and completed her honours in genetics. She then joined the Department of Anatomy at the Wits Medical School as a tutor and lecturer until she retired. Maureen loved the anatomy department and was tremendously — and rightly — proud of that very distinguished department and of the generations of doctors that she had helped to teach.
Why Arts degrees? After lecturing at Rhodes, and a difficult period in Cambridge, Merton married Jenifer Orkin, who taught in the History Department and Economic History division for many years. Merton moved into banking, becoming chief economist and then a senior executive at Nedbank, before returning to the Wits Economics Department as professor and head in , and then serving as Dean of Commerce until his retirement in Maureen and Merton were never Wits stars.
The university had made them feel at home — and so it seemed to them only right that they should help Wits to welcome many more first-generation university students in the dying years of apartheid and the first years of democracy. Wits shaped Maureen and Merton, created many of their possibilities, and — alongside their families — played a big part in making their lives meaningful. The Daguts were just a Wits family.
He registered for a bachelor of science at Wits, majoring in botany and zoology and completing an honours year in His introduction to conservation followed when he was appointed to a section of the Nature Conservatory at Etosha in the then South West Africa. This experience stood him in great stead: throughout his career, he set out to fully explore any project he dealt with, to gain a complete understanding of all dynamics of the system: be it environmental, social, human or bureaucratic.
With game ranching recognised as a bona fide agricultural land use by the Department of Agriculture, Dr Grossman was appointed as deputy director, research tasked with setting up the game ranching unit. In Dr Grossman left the formal agricultural sector and began a highly successful consulting career. His wicked sense of humour and adventurous spirit is legendary together with an amazing sense of wonderment and empathy about everything natural, wherever it was. He once described a visit to the Kunene River as being deeply spiritual: the place spoke and he heard.
Ultimately, Dr Grossman was shyly proud of the community-run, commercial game and hunting ranch that emerged from his efforts and which remains the only current example of a successful aboriginal land claim in southern Africa. Wolf made an extraordinary contribution to Jewish education in South Africa for over 50 years. He became deputy head in and in headmaster — a position he held for 34 years.
Jeffrey became the headmaster of King David in Victory Park. He could remember everyone, down to the minute details of their school career and family lives. Good teaching is not only about imparting relevant subject matter, but also about providing a moral compass and the values and attitudes that will serve our students well in their future lives.
He was born in Kroonstad on 8 March in , and moved to Johannesburg with his family at the age of four. He went to school in Springs, on the East Rand and considered being a medical doctor like his father, Benjamin. But after matriculating in , he enrolled for a BCom at Wits and as a result of an uninspiring job shadowing experience with his accountant uncle, he decided to pursue a career in law instead.
Advocate Kuny was largely apolitical, unlike his Wits classmates and peers. When they returned to South Africa he was admitted to bar as an advocate in February A month later came the Sharpeville massacre and his involvement in political cases began. He started by defending a host of black South Africans involved in small offences such as pass burning, demonstrations, breaching banning orders and membership of a banned organisation.
Hamburger was the secretary of the Defence and Aid Fund, and she roped him into defending PAC youngsters who had no one to defend them. Most of his cases were fought in small towns in front of aggressive judges and prosecutors. He used his skill on cases that he believed mattered, shunning a lucrative commercial career. Advocate Kuny shunned the limelight.
He was a talented jazz pianist. One anecdote goes that when he became a senior counsel in , he took his family to a steakhouse in Johannesburg to celebrate. There was a piano there which he started playing. He looked slightly down and out. The former vice-president of the World Confederation of Private Education was also involved in cricket administration on national level and vice-president of the South African Cricket Association during His father, Daniel Henning, taught at King Edward VII for more than 50 years and he embraced his educational philosophy: for harmony, not discord; tolerance, not prejudice; and love, not hate.
On his retirement, Henning took on the role of editor for Independent Education magazine for 12 years. He also remained active within educational circles, and was a member of a number of investigative government commissions into education.
He spent all 45 years of his working life focused on, not just building homes for people, but helping people to build homes for themselves. After obtaining his Wits qualifications he completed the programme for management development at Harvard Business School in His enthusiasm for work was palpable; even when problems seemed insurmountable. He worked at the Urban Foundation UF from till , focusing on enabling home ownership. Many of the documents from this period have been gifted back to Wits and are housed within their archives.
During the transition to democracy, Nell chaired the multiparty negotiating committee, comprising different interest groups and political parties. Their task was to negotiate the new National Housing Policy and provide assistance to the Government democratically elected in He went on to found Shisaka Development Management Services and was executive director of the business throughout the rest of his career. His work at Shisaka included advisory services to the state national, provincial, and local governments , multilateral aid agencies European Commission and USAID , private and non-governmental sectors in respect to policy, strategy and programme design.
Their work helped to redefine housing and development programmes across South Africa. He led the team that implemented the Expanded Public Works Programme which provided work opportunities for many South Africans. At the time of his passing he was also the executive chairman of the South African Housing Club; the non-executive chairman of Arrowhead Properties; a non-executive director of Novo Impact Fund; and a non-executive director of Capital Plus Exchange in Chicago.
Outside the office, he loved spending time with family as well as many hours on his bicycle. His interest in the way that urban spaces worked and could provide community piqued everywhere he went. He was internationally renowned for his work on behavioural and later cognitive-behavioural theories and interventions for anxiety-based disorders. Professor Rachman was born in Johannesburg and completed his undergraduate degree at Wits.
He continued at the Institute and was involved in the pioneering studies of exposure and response prevention for obsessive compulsive disorder. In he moved to the University of British Columbia, where he was tasked with building the clinical programme. He was best known for his work in obsessive-compulsive disorder. Rachman enjoyed a broad range of interests including music, politics and world history. He was a well-known oenophile and enjoyed good practical jokes.
His lectures were reportedly filled with humour and scholarship. He was married to Clare Philips for more than 50 years and a dedicated father to four children and seven grandchildren. He is survived by his wife Naomi, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Dr Ismail was born in Pietersburg, as the town was known then, and when he finished high school, he was required to apply to the minister of education to study at Wits Medical School.
He returned to his hometown after graduation at the height of the apartheid era and, in terms of the Group Areas Act, was not allowed to practise in town. A man known for his quiet manner, he admitted to Arena magazine in that he was disappointed and even angry about the legislation, but was also motivated to make a success of his career. He distributed blankets, infant milk powder and nutritional sachets as a service to combat marasmus and kwashiorkor.
He was also honoured for his firm commitment to equal education for women in the community and advocated for women to be given equal opportunities to study at tertiary institutions.
