The late "Bra Bizzah" was born on January 1 1948, in Kliptown. He was the fourth in a family of five children. He was passionate about life and very sociable.

Whenever you were around him, you would always feel his warmth. He never raised his voice - even in a most difficult situation, he would always be humble.

Patrick Xabanisa started his education at Lillydale in Kliptown and completed his schooling at Sekano Ntoane High School. His first job was in Fordsburg, and after a time he joined Dairybelle. Yearning for better prospects, he joined Femo Auto Parts. In 2001 "Bra Bizzah" joined Johnnic Communications. He took ill in 2003 and was admitted to hospital. On his discharge he resumed his duties. Late in 2008 he became sick again, and passed away on March 13. He leaves behind his wife, two sons and three daughters - and a host of friends and relatives.

His funeral service tomorrow starts at the Roman Catholic Church in Moletsane, Soweto, at 9am. Lala Ngoxolo Hlubi Elihle Bhungane
