In Memoriam: Estelle Ellis, Daily Maverick’s ‘lisquito’-in-chief, is laid to rest

‘Estelle’s compassion shone through her writing and made me a more caring person too — her life was too short, but her memory will be a blessing!” Readers remember a journalist whom one calls the Mother Theresa of South Africa. An author, philanthropist, humanitarian and journalist, Estelle lived to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Long live Estelle’s spirit, long live.
