Lebs, my brother from another mother, I really do not know where to begin, but maybe back in 2012 when we first met. We clicked right there and there as if were raised by the same parents. Our sister brotherhood kind of friendship extended to all my friends and family. To a point where all thought were blood brothers. You were since there as a brother, a friend, and housemate till we parted ways last year when I moved to Pretoria West. You so over protective of me and my kids, where all my kids and grandson actually took you as an uncle. You guided me, to where I am today and for that you will forever be in my heart. You encouraged me to pursue my Bcom degree, and assisted me with school work, today I am on my last year of finishing the degree. You understood my stubbornness as much I understood yours, we hardly had disagreements as we had the same character. I can write a book of our life together, but I never imagined having to talk about you in past tense. Who is going to call me Di’Lebza... who am I going to call Lebs…L, but as I write this, I can imagine you proof reading my spelling… wow… what an intelligent warrior you were Lebs. A smart, friendly, bighearted and compassionate soul. This is not a good bye Lebs, but a “see you later”… I know you are already organizing and guiding other angels in heaven as we speak, Farewell Lebs, may your pretty soul rest in peace till we meet again.

- Love Di’Lebza
Our family friend who became family, Lebo son, we are still in disbelieve, Christal cried, Rhobin was so shocked, Uncle Chris prayed & hoped that it was just a bad dream. The Hambly family will miss you terribly, your smile, your jokes, your hospitality, the list is endless. We love you and we pray that your Beautiful soul may Rest in Eternal PEACE. Rest save in the arms of Jesus Christ our Heavenly Father. Shalom. Lebo was the most energetic person I’ve ever met and his vibrant spirit was felt and so contagious. He was very driven and ambitious, in his own words: “ Tannie Khimose, I want to make money in my sleep” He was a very generous person. A people’s person & when he saw a need, he couldn’t help himself but jump in and help. He lived life to the fullest & something that I learned from him is “ GO BIG OR GO HOME “
To Lebo’s parents: You raised a wonderful young man who was a Blessing to all. He loved you so much & was always talink about Mom & Dad and how he WANT TO take good care of ya’ll. May God comfort you in this very trying times. Much love & Blessings. - Khimose Hambly

Thank you for the joy, laughter and happiness you brought into this world uncle Lebo, I wish we still had more time with you because there is so much more to learn from you. You will forever be in our hearts.
Uncle Lebo, what a vibrant soul! Always gave great advice and never failed to leave a smile on my face. We sure will miss your presence. He taught me to never limit my dreams and to work for what I want in life
I ask that God will be with his family in this tough time and allow them to grief but also to fill their hearts with new hope through the pain
- Rhobin Links


Lebo , I’m going to miss your smile and your caring hart. You always had a way to make people smile. Even when Natashia and I did our nails you would say “ yours is better than mine “
You will always ask if we needed food or petrol or anything else. You always asked if we were okay. You where so great with the kids. I’m going to miss you saying “ Good morning Juffrou Paula “ I’m really going to miss your caring hart , that great mind of yours with all your amazing ides. This WORLD is really empty without you here. Rest In Peace my friend. You where the most caring person in this world. You always made me smile That a smile can change a persons day. He may not be here anymore but will always be in our hearts

Lebo, my autie, giants of life leave imprint in our lives not because of the length of time they spent with us, but because of the height and depth at which they touched and impacted our lives. You made an impression like no other web developer ever made in my life. You are a true legend brother. Lebo was an ever flowing fountain of limitless creativity. Good was only good enough for him when it was great. He was never satisfied with settling for less. I’ll miss you. See you in the mornin. We remain connected Lebo. Fly with the angels now. You did your earthly work in a stellar way. Lebo could see inside people’s souls. He always knew how to create from words spoken or unspoken. What a talented human. And an amazingly gentle soul. Fly with the angels Lebo. Forever in our hearts. Always be kind even when it’s hard to be. Lebo’s parents. Your pain is valid. Allow God to ease you into your healing path. We will anchor you in our prayers. - Zuki Mzozoyana
Lebo, in the short time I’ve known you, you taught me how to be HAPPY, how to SMILE, how to SERVE. You’re amazing! Lebo was the kindest, most grounded person I have ever met. He wanted to create and experience a life of fulfillment, happiness and growth. You can be a positive, humble person in all circumstances. All the best. Earth has lost an angel.
- Charlize Herman


Lebo you were one special, amazing, friendly, disciplined, thoughtfull friend. You, Lebo always acknowledged people around you and valued peoples views. You never forced you will onto anyone until you had a clear view of a situation. Lebo, our friend, you are leaving behind a legacy to your family, friends and Natashia and the Boys, we are going to miss you dearly forever.! Rest in peace Buddy! To his family: Although Lebo is no longer with us on mother earth, he will always be in our hearts.! He is with Jesus now and watching over us with his big smile. - Jannie Kirsten
Lebo was ahead of his time. Who in their early 20s has goals like “ I want to build a team that gonna help me revolutionize the future of software and internet”. Lebo was a believer in ideas, people and had accepted the difficult burden of being a changemaker. He was magnetic and his passion infectious. That he is part of the Talented tenth. He believed that if he doesn’t make change happen then change won’t happen. He had radical ideas and had the ability to inspire loyalty. Lebo i wished we had had more time. I believe we would have turned South Africa and Africa upside down. You ideas we radical, Your passion was inspiring. Go well my friend. To the family: Your child was amazing. He was caring and went out of his way to make people comfortable and feel accomodated. He was inspiring, intelligent, a futurist and a gift to us. Thank you for sharing him with us. We Comiserate with you as we say goodbye to him!

Thank you, thank you very much Lebo. Lebo, the dude with the CAN DO attitude, generous in sharing his knowledge and time...truly selfless in his deeds.
With Lebo there was always a bright side, he gave hope for the better, anything could be fixed. May Lebo’s memories comfort your hearts and may they be filled with gratitude for the life he shared with you.
- Phillistus Tabane Lighten up the heavens with your smile, I really can not get over it, it was like a door to your heart, it said a lot about you. Meeting you through De Lebza in 2016, you welcomed us with a smile and so much warmth into your home. The sweetest person ever, farewell young man, I guess heaven couldn’t wait for you. Rest Bhuti. He smiled even on cloudy days Allow his spirit to leave on, you now have an angel looking after you, to prepare you a better sit, his not gone forever, he is just waiting for you on the other side. Allow him to rest, his part is done and his spirit will leave on..
Lebo, as you always said, “Howzit china? You good?” You were that guy that called for a favour and you were that guy I could call for a favour. You were humble and you hustled hard. Your laugh was genuine and it was infectious. You did everything with 110% commitment. You were never scared to believe big and to dream even bigger. I’ll never forget your smile and that - laugh from the depths of your being. I’ll remember you for the word - pushing. You were always pushing hard to do more and achieve more. You were truly a brand ambassador for attooh! to live today now. I’ll miss you dearly and I know that there’s a piece of you that will forever stay with me until we meet again. Your work was your worship. Thanks for the laughs my boet. “Lebo was truly an inspirational guy. He was a big dreamer and a go-getter. He wore his heart on his sleeve and went out of his way to make others happier. Lebo was always smiling and he had a happy heart. What I learnt from him is that you can teach yourself anything - take the time to learn the skill. It makes you better”
To Lebo’s parents, family, and extended family. My deepest condolences during this time. I pray that your faith will remain strong and fixed to continue on. I pray that your joy will stay evident even when it hurts. Your son was a sheer joy to many people and I know he was raised from the shoulders of greatness. There’s a song we sing at our church and it always brings me hope, the chorus goes: “Even what the enemy means for evil You turn it for our good You turn it for our good and for Your glory Even in the valley, You are faithful You’re working for our good You’re working for our good and for Your glory.” May you find strength within the sorrow and beauty in knowing that God’s plans are still to prosper. He remains a Good God, and we shall meet Him and Lebo when everything shall become clear

Lebo, you lived for creating and was focused on perfecting every detail of your “life canvas” put in front of you. You will be missed dearly by all. You had a personality that was contagious and you were such a very talented entrepreneur. Always laughing, always hustling and always uplifted everyone you came in contact with. It was truly a pleasure to have gotten to know you Lebo. You will be missed.
You led by example and taught me “It doesn’t matter who you are, kindness and laughter is contagious” My condolences for the family, be sure that you raised a fine young man and that brought light into all allot of peoples dark lives. You are in my prayers. - Theo Swanepoel You shone so much light into other peoples lives, may you shine on in heaven with the angels. You were always jovial and happy. You loved to make people laugh. Your personality made you shine and you were such a gentleman. One day you will be reunited again, but for now, remember the wonderful person that Lebo was.
- The Mare Family

Lebo was a very close friend of mine. He was like a brother to me. We shared a lot together. Lebo was kind, caring and generous. He taught to go hard after my dreams and not settle for less. He was highly motivated and was always encouraging. Lebo, news of your passing broke my heart. The last time we spoke you wanted to move to Cape Town so that you can help me with the church. Thanks for caring about me and being loyal to me. Thanks for considering me as you friend and brother. Thanks for being a good friend that was closer to me like a brother. I am upset that this news reached me after many months of trying to get hold of you. I will dearly miss you and you will always be in my heart. I love you my brother. Dear Lebo’s parents. You have a good son. Lebo was loved by everyone who encountered him. He loved people sincerely and deeply. Those he loved knew it because he said it and showed it. He had a good name too because he worked hard and wanted to be the best in everything he did. He was always happy and a ball of energy. He was always encouraging and would never leave you feeling down or discouraged. I met him in 2004 at a prayer meeting at Pentec’s Belco Residence in Kuilsriver, Cape Town. He loved the Lod Jesus. He lived with me in my room at Res. We shared everything together. He loved food and cooking. That was good for because I didn’t love cooking. He protected people he loved. I hope you find comfort in knowing that he lived his life to the full and loved genuinely. I only have good memories of him. May the LORD give you strength and grace to deal with this loss. May his peace and comfort be with you. - Mbasa Mguye
Lebo if I have to describe you in 3 words, it would be loving cool intelligent a true friend, you taught me not to give up in anything i want. Lebs, Vulamazulu, Bhonyongo I really do not know where to begin, but maybe back the day when we met in 2015 as your brother-inlaw. Through your sister Malebo and you welcomed me to your life as a big brother to you, a friend, and till we parted ways last year when Malebo and I moved to Pretoria West. I remember when I was getting married you arranged everything for me and guided me, to where I am today and for that you will forever be in my heart. You encouraged me to become a good husband and the father to my kids, you understood me as much I understood you, we hardly had disagreements. I never imagined having to talk about you in past tense. Who is going to call me Duduzile... who am I going to call Lebogile…L, but as I write this, I can imagine you proof reading my spelling… wow… what an intelligent warrior you were Lebogile A smart, friendly, compassionate soul This is not a good bye Lebo, but a “see you later” …? Its feels like you are sleeping I can knock at your door and call wake up Lebogile,I don’t know who is going to braai with me Farewell Lebo, may your pretty soul rest in peace till we meet again. Love you big time Buddy. Dear Lebo Family there is no word that will make you to forget about such a wonderful child that you lost as a friend and brother to Lebza what i can say is that please stay strong your son is in better place now i know the pain is bearable rest Lebza - Mduduzi Khonjelwayo
Lebo was a always full of boundless energy. That was more evident from his warm, honest smile to his loud & proud personality. That i will definitely miss about him. I honestly don’t believe Lebo ever thought anything to be impossible LOL. To Lebo’s Family, know that this man has impacted each and every person he has ever come in contact with, and he did that in a very positive, cheerful and exciting way. He always seemed like he had no doubts nor limits to anything he wanted to achieve. He poured out all his energy into things, even his friendships. Brother i haven’t seen or interacted with you in a very long time and yet i remember our moments so vividly. I am sad that i will not see you again. Thank you for leaving us with such amazing and beautiful memories of you. Love you always. To his family: “Thank you for blessing us with such a wonderful human being. His time was fulfilled and he’s memories will be cherished forever.”
- Lwazi Sijaji
Lebo you were a free spirited person, someone who always had positive things to say and find ways to make others laugh with your jokes. You taught me to always live a happy life…or “Just live your life, go after the things you want” Thank you for showing love when you could, and living life as full as you could, you will surely be missed, one person that made you laugh whenever you talk to him as though you talk daily…May your soul rest in Peace Lebza
To Lebo’s family: I pray God will comfort you in this time where death has be accepted quickly, may the memories you had with Lebo leave you smiling and live on forever, God is with you and will be your comfort always, hold on to Him.
- Nozuko Nompozolo
Oh my son, I only heard today about your passing, I am grateful for the years we shared in tertiary, always such a dreamer and innovator. Thank you for the unconditional love you shared with me. May your beautiful soul rest in peace Lebza. You were such a charmer who could get away with anything, he used to call me mom back in Pentech. Lebo you always told me “Oh my, that anything and everything was possible if you believed.” To his family: May the good Lord comfort you during this time, thank you for the teachings you gave your son. Thank you for allowing him to cross paths with us at Pentech (CPUT). We have memories of him that we will keep in our hearts forever.



Lebo, my buddy, I am not good at this, especially when it is to such a good friend and special person. Indeed, a special human and awesome person. Don’t worry, I won’t forget to buy PROPER whiskey next time, VAT 69 definitely don’t cut it. You are leaving a massive space, not only in your newly found partners from work or your friends, but to Natashia and the boys. In a very short time, you made a massive impact on the boy’s lives and I am 100% confident that the values you taught them, will always have a positive impact in their lives. (What an example of a dad!) Still don’t understand why you, why now and why so sudden, but I rest in the fact that we will some day reunite in Heaven and then understand as it says in 1 Corinthians 13. I want to celebrate your time on earth just as you would have wanted it and don’t worry buddy, we’ll look after Natashia and the boys, I think you know that. Until we see each other again. Your buddy, Jannie. Lebo, our friend, I just text Natashia that Tuesday to find out how all of you are doing with the Cold and Flu, thinking that, as soon as everyone is better, we can do our way overdue braai, with your favourite Potato Salad and Pampoen Koekies, and then I got the most, unexpected, shocking news!! Yes, I still do not understand why, why you, why so sudden, why now.! I guess, you decided to go home, back to our Heavenly Father.! In a short period of time, nearly 4 years, you got a special place in all our hearts. I will surely, most definitely, miss your voice when I come over for Cuppuchino with my friend Natashia, “Hallo Dellie, how your doing, how’s Jannie?” Your kindness, friendlyness, positive attitude, endurance, values in live, one could see from far. The Impact that you made, and caring heart looking out for Natashia and the boys, we will always be thankful for. We will do that overdue braai with Natashia and the boys and then, we will celebrate your life together, which I think you would have appreciated. We already miss you, a lot ! REST IN PEACE OUR DEAR FRIEND!
Adelle
Dear, friends and family of Uncle Lebo, Uncle Lebo was a very good friend for all of us. I loved him so much, he was a very good man for Natashia and the kids. Lebo was so brave, for the things that he did for the kids and Natashia. Lebo was also a friend and father figure to the boys Ross, Devro and Nathan and a friend to Sodi. Lebo, we will miss you so much.!! You are now in heaven with Jesus.
From Carla

Lebo was full of life. Lebo loved people hard. You Lebo taught me to NEVER give up, fight hard for what you believe in, love each other as it’s the world was coming to an end and to always learn something new every chance you get. I’m lost for words Lebza, rest my friend and be that angel that will shine brighter for you family and those you loved. I’m sorry God needed you at a time where everyone who valued you may not be there to say goodbye but in spirit we will be there. I regret not reaching out more Lobo, I regret not checking up on you. To his family: May God comfort you during this heavy, trying and painful time. Lebo loved his family dearly and spoke a lot about them. Be at peace that he is not in pain and that you have gained the best angel anyone could ever ask for. It won’t be easy but walk with God through this.

And that’s why, right now, We are asking You to give us Your divine wisdom and guidance on dealing with the passing of our loved one Lebo. We don’t always know why death happens, so many un answered questions, Our souls is weary and we are heartbroken. We know we have to live a life and honors lives doings. Even though we may feel like we can’t move forward or see what’s ahead, You see and lead us. And You know us.
So please guide us & Show us the paths that lead to abundant life that you showed us through our loved one Lebo, and convict us when we were tempted to question and stray from You. As You guide us, restore us. We will place our hope in You at all times especially in the passing of our loved ones, because You know all things, and by You, our life is held together and meaningfull You are our strength in times of need, and You have become our salvation.
So hold please hold us and specifically Lebo’s Wife, parents and siblings close, Lord, and teach us all to walk in a manner worthy of the calling You have given us .
Direct our steps as You guard our life without or loved one Lebo , because we want to glorify You for the opportunity of another “ Butterfly” reaching your kingdom. Bless Lebo in heaven, In Jesus’ name, Amen. Codolences Sias, Karen and Serjo de Kock
Lebo was such a humble person, always had a smile on his face and would never see him in a bad mood. My condoles to the Mulusi Family. We have lost someone truly special.
- Johanna
Lebo, I am so sorry for what happened to you. I know that it was tough, I wish I had something that could have helped you in your time of need. But well Lebo only God knows why he took you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Rest in peace broer till we meet again.
- Daisy Lebo was a larger than life personality! Kind , a good listener and loved to laugh…..hard! He was dedicated with his work, a perfectionist and his part in our business will be missed.


But if there is one thing I would never forget it would be the day Lebo offered to pray at one of our Friday morning meetings when we were still at the 4D offices…..he prayed that day that I got goosebumps! Everyone just started to applaud him spontaneously after he said Amen! Lebo your presence will be missed.
- Rayno
I have not been able to say anything since I heard the news of your passing ,because every time I think of you I burst into tears. I can still hear your laughs and the jokes you used to make I’m struggling to accept that you are gone. My heart is shattered Lebo Good friends never say goodbye. They simply say, “See you soon.” So, my friend… I’ll see you soon,and I will forever cherish the friendship we shared and carry all the lessons you taught me. My life will forever be better because you’ve been part of it, dear Lebo I will never forget you. Whenever I needed a friend, support, comfort, and encouraging words, or to be challenged, you were always the one I would turn to and you never failed to put a smile on my face and help me get up again, and you always made sure that I never loose faith in God. Dear Lebo I will never forget you. You were such a wonderful soul and I pray God rewards you in heaven for all the lives you touched. Rest in peace my dear friend To Lebo family: We have lost an Angel. It is my prayer that God will comfort you during this sad time. May he richly bless you as you mourn, and may the light of His presence be a continual source of consolation.
