Farewell abuti Simmy, I got to know you through my big brother Ephy, you became a big brother to me, ever stylish and always bubbly. I recall how you’d tell us the importance of family and education. You have became more than abuti Ephy’s friend, you were like a big brother to all of us, I met you when I was in primary school, today I am a young woman who was inspired by you. Go well abuti, Rest In Power❤️🙏🏼

To Lebala family. I cannot claim I know the pain you must be feeling in your hearts, but know that it’s deep. He most definitely would not have opted to leave this world so soon, let us try accept that God decided it was enough for him to endure that cancer. He was more than just a friend, but my support structure and my protector, importantly my loving brother Simzo. He joined forces with my lawyers for free, ensuring I become victorious in a very rough and challenging divorce. When I was down, calling me Rabza, he would say “come let me go buy you a special perfume”, and more offerings like let’s just go for dinner and laugh. Rest In Peace Simzo, Reabetsoe Motsepe

You were a great brother and neighbour. When we moved into our new home in the estate, you drove into our yard to welcome us. You have been blessed with a very warm and caring heart. Etlela hikurhula hosi ya mina.

Son of Mahlangu, that how he addressed me. A great friend and brother. Even at the height of irritation, Simmy never gave up on those he loved. In March, prior to the national lockdown, he drove from Pretoria to Melrose to visit me. We had a long lunch catching me. He scolded me for coming alone. He wanted to see my wife and children. We promised each other another lunch. We love you Simmy. Go well! Namaste! From Siya Mahlangu

Rest in Peace warra. I am glad that my musical jams were a blast in your ears, they kept you tapping and dancing as when we were together. I enjoyed listening to how you also called my name out, an e-flat note 'Thibis'. You were an advocate of note. Farewell my brother. Tx f the time we spent together.. Mothibi Ramusi and family

Malome Simmy, you were love personified. You loved your family unconditionally, Gogo May, Loatlile, your sisters, nieces and nephews. As a friend to Nokumuka I was privileged to experience the embodiment of love that you were, you treated us like your daughters and made sure that you always left us with nuggets of wisdom. You lived a full life and never compromised on anything. May the angels meet you at heavens gate, may your soul rest in eternal peace. Namaste! ♥️

You inspired me and many of us. Your kind heart, love, work ethics, high skills, giving heart yet so humble, what a pleasant spirit you are Sir.. You may have departed from the face of this earth, but the heavens have picked and gained the best sun ripped fruit from the tree- earth.. Sleep knowing you remain awake in our hearts.
Namaste.. Kwena

A wonderful human being, who's humanity, humility and kind spirit remains will be hard to match. He was God's precious gift to all the people he has touched. Gone too soon. Robala ka kgotso Mokwena.

When I called you and found out that you were in hospital, you insisted that I book a game of golf because you indicated that you would be out of hospital the next day. I did as you asked me to. What follows next were messages on social media announcing that you had passed on. I sent a message to your phone hoping that you would respond and we would proceed with our golf game. Now that you are on the other side, please book the game of golf. My brother my friend, ke lla ka mamina. To your dearest mother Mme Lebala, Loatile your son, your two sisters, nephews and nieces, Modimo le Badimo ba le roballe.
