Johan Britz 6/5/1964 to 11/11/2022.
11/11/22 was one of the worst days of my life loosing the love of my life and my soul mate.
He loved God and his music. We met in a very unusual way, he knew from day one that God brought us together as the day we met he told me God had showed him I was to be his wife. We were married for 34 wonderfull years and in those years he told me every day that he loved me and served me with my breakfast every single morning.
He loved family and his friends and was always there for anyone in need. He devoted manys years as a Praise and Worship leader. He was loved by all. When he got ill he never allowed it to stop him from doing his worship and always trusted God for his healing. Even when the doctors said he had five years left to live Gods grace and mercy carried him through for many more years after that. But unfortunately our plans is not Gods plan for our lives. A week before his death when his illness was at its worst he sat down and asked God to please fetch him as he was unable to endure what he was going through.
So on the 11/11/2022 just before midnight he passed away peacefully.
Unfortunately I was not by his side when it happened. This left me with such a feeling of guilt as I was not there.
By the time I got to the hospital he had already passed on.
I came home got into bed feeling as if I was lost and my world had ended, the next minute he appeared beside me put his arm around me ( note this was not a dream it actually happened ). I turned to him with so much confusion but not scared and asked him “do you not know you passed away”?The next minute he was gone. I believed in my heart he came to say goodbye.
Now this is where my mourning started. I cried for weeks on end and could not cope being alone. One evening I sat on my bed with a bottle of sleeping pills which I wanted to take just to be with him again. I felt helpless, confused and lonely and did not want to live anymore. It was here that I had a battle between the devil and God. In my mind the devil was telling me to drink it then all will be over, and then God was reminding me how much hurt I will leave behind for my children and grandchildren that still needed me and was also mourning the death of their father and grandad. Eventually God brought peace into my heart.
I now live from day to day. The pain never goes away you only learn to live with it. At times I feel that Im doing well and getting over it, then unexpectedly it hits me again like a wave. There was times when I just want to be isolated from everyone and then the next day I wish someone would visit or just phone me. My feelings was all over the show.
Now nearly two years ago I fully trust in God to carry me each day and live day to day,
Knowing that oneday I will be reunited with Johan again.
I now live with all the good memories of the 34 years we were together.
With God in my life and my children they give me strength to be able to cope and enjoy each day.
Johan was an exceptionally amazing man with lost of passion for mankind and he left behind a good legacy that will always be remembered. He will forever be in my heart.
As I read your heartfelt tribute to your beloved husband, Johan Britz, I am deeply moved by the profound love and connection you shared. Your story is a testament to the power of true love, faith, and the impact one person can have on those around them.
Your journey, though marked by immense grief and pain, is a shining example of resilience and trust in a higher power. The way Johan lived his life, devoted to God, music, and serving others, is a legacy that will continue to inspire and uplift those who knew him.
the extraordinary experience you had after his passing, where he appeared beside you to say goodbye, is a remarkable reminder that love knows no bounds, not even those of life and death,
Your honesty about the struggles of navigating the dark days of mourning, and the constant ebb and flow of emotions, will resonate with many who have walked a similar path. Your courage in sharing your story will undoubtedly offer comfort and hope to those grappling with their own losses.
As you continue to day to day finding strength in your faith, children, and cherished memories, know that Johan’s love and legacy will forever be etched in your heart. Your love story is a beautiful reminder that true love never fades, and that the memories and impact we create with others can transcend even death itself.
Thank you for sharing this poignant tribute, Marie. May it be a blessing to all who read it, and may Johan’s memory continue to be a blessing to you and your family.
