Tuning In: Masterful performer John mourned
He was described as a gentleman and a gentle man.
The community is mourning the death of John Liebenberg. Heartfelt condolences are extended to Marion, Rene and Adrian on the death of John, a husband, father and grandfather. He was described as a gentleman and a gentle man.
This writer had the pleasure, privilege and honour of performing on stage with John from 1998 until 2014. A masterful performer, he was so much fun to work with and a creator of note. John will be missed so very much; he was a very special man to so many of us.
