Tragically, Vuyolwethu Donashe lost her husband, Ndumiso, and their two children, Siyamdumisa, 14, and Sidumise, 10, in a car accident.
They will be laid to rest in Zwelitsha, Qonce, at this time.
After qualifying in Gqeberha in June for the next stage of auditions for the International Arts Talent Showcase, Siyamdumisa and her family were on their way to Johannesburg to cheer her on at the final phase of competition.
Unfortunately, at around 6am on September 30th, the sisters and Ndumiso were killed in an accident with a Mitsubishi Pajero on the N1 South from Bloemfontein at Tierspoort.
Sergeant Peter Kareli, the police department’s spokesman, stated that a case of murder by criminal negligence was being investigated.
Just the other day, Dona, a 40-year-old
According to her 30-year-old sister, Nomahlubi Stamper, she was still struggling to accept her loss.
She [Donashe] is upset; in fact, she is so heartbroken that she cannot find the words to describe how she feels. Stamper remarked, “She’s in disbelief, but we’re putting our faith in the Lord. It hurts, but we’re putting our faith in him.
She explained that Misa’s happiness at having reached this round of the tournament had sparked the family’s enthusiasm for the road trip.
She also mentioned that Misa’s parents were both singers in the Qonce Methodist Church and that the entire family enjoyed music. Misa herself has a YouTube channel where she posts her original compositions.
We are a musical family; she sang in the Cornerstone Assembles of God youth chorus and in her school choir. At all times, she would hum to herself. Once she was home from class, she’d sit down at the piano.
