A Celebration of life

I am making this page as a tribute to Hansie Cronje who's life was tragicly cut short at the age of 32. I want this to be a celebration of his life as knowing Hansie was a christian he is now with his God in Heaven. My sympathy is with his wife, family and friends who all will miss him greatly. 
I have chose  some photos showing the Hansie I remember with that beautiful smile.

I was lucky to meet Hansie Cronje in Adelaide during both 1994 and 1998 tours.  I found him to be a very nice man.  He was happy to sign autographs and have his photo taken.  One lady in 1998 said to him it is so good how you sign autographs for fans and he replied "no this is what we should be doing"  I will always remember that.  I even got on tv getting an autograph in 1998.  My friend who doesn't like cricket was watching the late news and recognized me getting the autograph.  He was my first ever favourite South African.
