Thuso Moss
It is with great sadness that the Centre for Social Development informs you of the passing of our colleague Thuso Moss on Monday morning.
Thuso wore many hats in our division. As a facilitator, he was deeply loved by his EPTD SETA Level 4 and 5 students (unsurprisingly given the many hours of extra tutoring he devoted to them). He was a gentle voice of wisdom to the community development team as the team’s leader. He was a trusted member of the division’s management team because of his honesty, integrity and deep knowledge of the ECD sector. He was respected and looked up by literacy ambassadors, principals and funders alike as the coordinator of the VW Legacy Literacy Project in kwaNobuhle. His command of many languages, and his warm smile enabled him to make friends wherever he went.
Thuso embodied the warm, gentle, wise male energy so urgently needed in our country and particularly in the ECD sector. Having graduated with his Education Honours degree in 9 April 2019, he moved immediately onto perusing his Masters Degree in the use of indigenous games in the teaching of Mathematics. He often mentioned to colleageus that the PHD would follow. The world will be poorer without it, and more so without him.
The messages of condolences sent in to the CSD have described him as
a caring and compassionate teacher and gracious colleague.
[someone of whom one] always heard praises, admiration, respect and love from all who worked with him. He was an important figure and person in all that he did and contributed.
a kind and gentle man, who contributed so much to the learning of his students.
a beautiful human!
His passing leaves a huge hole in our hearts and in our organization.
We send our thoughts and prayers to his wife, three daughters and grandchildren in their time of grief.
