Daughter bids emotional farewell to slain runner Moselakgomo

Khumo Moselakgomo says she wishes she could hug her mother again

The emotional farewell of eight-year-old Khumo Moselakgomo to her slain mother, Elizabeth 'Tsontso' Moselakgomo, was a poignant tribute paid at her mother's funeral service in Phake, Mpumalanga. Khumo described her mother as a beautiful angel and vowed to hold onto the memories they shared, carrying her mother's love within her heart as she grew.

Tragically, Tsontso went missing on September 9th while out for a run in Kempton Park, Gauteng, and her body was discovered three days later in Rhodesfield. Khumo expressed her desire to hug her mother again but knew she would always be with her through her memories. She also mentioned the devastating impact of the loss on her family, emphasizing that Tsontso had filled the void left by their earlier loss of their mother, who was a single parent.

Khumo concluded her poem, expressing her love for her mother and acknowledging that she would always miss her, but that she would carry her spirit with her as she continued to grow.
