his disbelief at the tragic incident.
“I've been up most of the night just trying to make sense of how Mrs Grill a 92-year-old lady that has lived a rich, long and blessed life and devout member of the Bonteheuwel West Congregation - NAC church in Bonteheuwel had to endure a gruesome, horrific and tragic death as a result of being mauled to death by 2 pitbull dogs. It does not make sense, it should not make sense, it is just is not possible.Indeed shock overwhelms sadness. It is just not fair,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
