Joost van der Westhuizen

My heartfelt condolences to the family. May God prove to be a refuge for you during this distressing time. Psalms 9:9

My heartfelt sympathy to the family, friends and fans of Joost. I hope you will find comfort in knowing that there will be a time when every sort of disease and every sort of infirmity that plaques mankind will be gone forever.

May the God of all peace bring comfort Westhuizen family and friends at this difficult time.

Truly saddened to hear about Joost Van Der Westhuizen. His fine legacy will surely be remembered. I hope to meet him in Paradise!

A legend in difficult times. You were part of the reason why so many of us believed in the rainbow nation. May the Good Lord bless you for all time

A legend of note. Sad sad, dark day in the sporting world of South Africa. Thank for being the person and icon you were. You are now pain free. Gone too soon - hence, South Africans are fighters. You tried your best to fight this battle - unfortunately, no matter how we try, there comes a time when we need to deal with defeat.

I salute you - a man in the mirror.

May God be with the family in this difficult time, you always be missed

You were an outstanding rugby player and you will be sadly missed. Condolences to your whole family! We can now only imagine what you would still have brought to the game as a couch, administrator or mentor to the new young players! Taken far too soon! Rest In peace!
