Bejaardes was Stemopgewonde

GansbaaiCourant WhatsApp Nuus / News

Die bejaardes van Herberg-aan-See (HaS) was behoorlik “stemopgewonde” tydens die spesiale stem-geleentheid vroeër die week, kort voor verkiesingsdag op Maandag, 5 Mei 2014. Die ontspanningsaal in die Tehuis was volgepak en almal het ewe opgewonde gelyk om in die eetkamer te gaan stem, waar Francia van Dyk van die OVK en haar helpers en die polisie seker gemaak het die stemmery verloop binne wetlike voorskrifte. Bykans 40 geregistreerde stemgeregtigde inwoners van die Tehuis het hul stemme uitgebring, met die res van hulle wat op stemdag persoonlik sou gaan stem het.

Wilhelmina Hendrina Sadie (Winnie) Steenkamp (93) van HaS was die oudste geregistreerde kieser wat seker gemaak het haar stem gaan ‘n bydrae lewer. Sy is op 12 Oktober 1919 in Hopefield gebore, waar sy ook grootgeword het. Sy het haarself in ‘n verplegingsloopbaan gekwalifiseer en is vir die afgelope 4 jaar ‘n inwoner by HaS.
