Synopsis:
PRESENTATION CONTENT by Rory Steyn
In 'Remembering Greatness’, Rory reminisces about Madiba’s death, how he heard about it , what he was doing before and at the State Funeral etc. Rory also shares how he ‘got closure’ after his passing.
It’s a great human interest story, which is very anecdotal and will include many moving, humorous stories of Madiba’s affect on and interactions with ordinary South Africans from a very up-close-and-personal perspective.
The length of the presentation can be 30 - 75 minutes, and all that is required is a good microphone.
