Our Plettenberg Bay and Knysna volunteers went to the Italtile crash site off Plettenberg Bay’s Robberg peninsula early this morning to pay homage to those who were lost in the crash as well as to Ray Farnham and Wally Hyman. They put flowers in the water at sunrise to coincide with the Italtile Kilimanjaro team who were summiting at the same time. Our thoughts are with the families and friends of those who died in the accident as well as Wally and Ray’s families and friends.
