NELSON MANDELA 1918 - 2013


Nelson Mandela the First fully democratically elected South African President, leader of the African National Congress and statesman has died and we are all sadly diminished for his passing. He himself dismissed suggestions that he was some sort of saint, rather a sinner who kept on trying. Some people just make the world a better place by simply trying (and trying again and again), and Mr Mandela was one of those. Mr Mandela was a positive example of hope and forgiveness triumphing over hate, adversity and life experience, to his lasting credit.
