When Janique Giles drew her last breath, it was in the arms of her son, Brandon.
A neighbour and close family friend, who spoke to TimesLIVE on condition of anonymity, described the couple as doting parents who would do anything for their children.
“They lived for their children and family always came first. What is so heartbreaking is that their lives were cut short and they will never get to see grandchildren.On Monday, the family’s home was surrounded by police tape as crime scene examiners combed the house. Gauteng police spokesperson Brig Mathapelo Peters said officers were investigating cases of murder, attempted murder and robbery. No arrests have been made.“They would go on family holidays overseas and they just had so much love for one another. Wayne and Janique knew everyone their kids were friends with, they got to know the boyfriends and girlfriends who were readily welcomed into the fold. It was a beautiful family dynamic.
The family had been the first to build a home on the farming estate and had been a feature in the community since its inception. Their deaths sent shock waves through the residential estate, with many families moving to ramp up security.
