This page is dedicated to Jako and his family.
On the 18th of January 2017, the Venter family—Jako, along with Jana (who had already moved on the 17th of November 2016) and the children—relocated to Auckland, New Zealand. With mixed emotions and a touch of sadness, we send them our heartfelt wishes, hoping that God will bless them abundantly as they embark on this new chapter filled with exciting explorations and adventures.
We hope to reunite again soon. Sending all our love and best wishes from your family and friends in South Africa.
It’s hard to see you go, but we’ve made countless memories to cherish and reflect on during the lonely days that lie ahead.
Our Best wishes
As you begin a new life in a foreign and unfamiliar country, we hope everything works out and that you find success as you move toward new horizons. Always trust in the Lord, stay positive, and remain focused on the journey ahead.
