Tish White died on Friday, 3 December. White, her husband, Dale, her children, and the extended family and community they grew around themselves were a beacon of light that shone in a dark conservative corner of Roodepoort and the world during the 1970s, 1980s and beyond. In this tribute, some of her closest colleagues reminisce.
Tish White.
Dale had requested that you collect me from the station. I boarded the Toyota and held my breath as we rode on the bumpy and rocky road at high speed, you with one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding your favourite cigarettes while changing gearsI breathed a sigh of relief when you stopped and parked near the kitchen door of the house. You welcomed me into the house and offered me a seat on the brown couch in the dining room lounge.
