After investigating many retirement
options from Cape Town to Nelspruit, Vossie and Des Vos decided on Warmbad Renaissance
as their retirement village of choice. Reasons for their decision include affordability,
well-kept grounds (despite the current searing drought), a magnificent Bushveld
setting, proximity to Pretoria and O R Tambo International Airport, a roomy
unit, friendly residents, to name but a few.

Without further ado, they asked
a property consultant to market their property in Vaal Marina in order to move
into U111.
Des was born in Springs 67 years
ago. However, her family soon moved to the former Transkei where she grew up.
After matriculating at King Edward High School in Matatiele, she was employed
as a telephonist by the GPO before joining Premier Milling. Here she advanced
through the ranks, eventually becoming a stalwart in the accounting department.

Vossie (65) was born in Maclear
in East Griqualand, and grew up on a farm in the Ugie district. He attended
Ugie High School where he matriculated. After a spell with the GPO, he also
joined Premier Milling and rose to the position of area sales manager, first in
Butterworth and later in East London.
