Goodbye Tata

No one will forget the death of Nelson Mandela
Our (South Africa's) hero.

On the 4th of December at 8:08am Madiba died in One Military Hospital in Pretoria.
When his youngest grandchildren heard about his death they were busy watching the new Mandela movie that just came out.

Jacob Zuma has announced that Nelson Mandela's funeral will be on December 15, while December 10 has been marked as Madiba's memorial service. The official memorial service for the Mandela will be held at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg, President Jacob Zuma said on Friday afternoon.



Madiba Quotes
To remember him I have put together some quotes.

"Difficulties break some men but make others. No axe is sharp enough to cut the soul of a sinner who keeps on trying, one armed with the hope that he will rise even in the end."

 "It always seems impossible until it's done."

 "If I had my time over I would do the same again. So would any man who dares call himself a man."

"I like friends who have independent minds because they tend to make you see problems from all angles."

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
