Our heartfelt sympathy to Kees and the Bruynel family at the sad passing of Riek.
Riek was a very good friend to our late mother Corrie.
With her wonderful sewing skills she helped mum out on a number of times with dress alterations on special occasions. Riek will always be remembered for her positive influence going forward and with a wise seasoned word in difficult times.
We have been blessed as a family by her love, kindness, support and encouragement over the years.
Thinking of you all at this time,
with sympathy from the Roodbeen family,
Peter, Maryanne, Dot, Michael

Sad to hear of Mrs Bruynels passing. She was a lovely dedicated family person, and a very hard worker. Can still remember the days when she walked or biked down the road past our place. Such a pleasant caring lady. Our thoughts are with you all.

Thinking of you guys at this sad time. Mrs Bruynel was always so good to me, had a heart of gold and never had a bad word to say of anyone. I remember being very proud telling her that I had graduated university with a masters degree in business at the age of 44 and she told me well done and that some things take time and it was my time and she always new I was smarter than I thought I was . A beautiful person through and through.
