All his family except for his youngest brother had disowned him.
On September 9, Lucas Motsepe, 59, was found dead by his landlord's children in the backyard room he was renting. They had become worried when they did not see him in the morning - given his poor health.
A counsellor and community worker, Mmabatho Khoza of The Ark Ministries, told Sowetan that Motsepe survived by doing gardening for local residents and received care from their NGO, Funanani Trust.
"He died at night in the backyard room he was renting," Khoza said. "He was found lying on the floor with parts of his face eaten by rodents.
"The nose and the flesh below both eyes was gone."
This was corroborated by funeral undertaker Senex Mashile, who said it had been hard to identify the deceased because of his disfigured face.
Motsepe's younger brother, Mandla, said that they had lost their family home after their parents died some years ago.
Mashile said one of Motsepe's other brothers had reneged on his initial promise to pay R2,000 for a full funeral service.
"His young brother, Mandla, [then] offered to pay the money in instalments with the meagre pay he makes from gardening in town," he said.
"That alone prompted me to do the service for free."
Some people and organisations such as Funanani Trust and The Ark Ministries and the families the deceased worked for donated money to buy groceries for the funeral service which took place at Mashile's home in Mamelodi Block C.
Peter Marema, a local councillor, praised Mashile for his role in the burial, describing him as a "'true community builder".

And which cup did you win after those many goals he scored?
All the hard work by Rudd Krol is slowly being undone by lesser coaches that followed him.
Leal survived mostly because of the spirit and determination instilled by Krol though one could see that trouble was looming given last minute equalisers especially goals scored by defenders. By the time Njenje took over things were starting to fall apart and he was not good enough to maintain the momentum.
De Sa is going to put the final nail in the coffin, not only is his personality going to become an issue but he is starting from scratch. I don't see Pirates doing well this season, if anything I think they are in for a tough season and in the end player power is going to be De Sa's undoing. I honestly don't see De Sa lasting the entire season, not many Pirates players will stand being scolded or being sworn at. Report Abuse

It is how you have played so far that should concern you. The swag and fighting spirit that Pirates showed immediately after the 3-0 drubbing by Chiefs is gone.

We have picked up 13 points from a possible 15 and are obviously top of the log.

Fortunately Pirates is not like CHIEFS and what happened with Moshin at Chiefs will not happen to Bucs, this is not a “copy and paste” issue. There were real reasons why Dr Khoza didn’t renew Krol’s contract which I may share with you if you are interested. As much as we (the ghost) still want Krol back to the ship as well, it was a sound business decision the Dr took not to renew his contract.
It is not the first time Pirates started like this, for the past two seasons we started badly and went on to win a treble and this season is no different, actually there is no crises at Bucs, we are only 4 games in the league and lost a mere one game. Roger-that is the right man to take us forward at the moment, we can’t cry for Krol forever. He did fairly well at Wits for some time now without the galaxy of players Pirates have so he should surely do even better…

@Mr PresidentBuccaneers:
Let us not be concerned about what other people are doing and concentrate on our game, for heaven’s sake we only lost one game so far this season so there is no crises in the ship. We have been in this situation before where paper fire teams lead from the beginning only to succumb where it matters most and that’s when the pirates of the Caribbean would be closing all sorts of movements alongside every coast. We did it twice already and this season is no different
==========================================================================
Are u okay that 1 player (Parker)has scored more goals than the whole club(FIRECRACKERS FC) combined?

All the hard work by Rudd Krol is slowly being undone by lesser coaches that followed him.Leal survived mostly because of the spirit and determination instilled by Krol though one could see that trouble was looming given last minute equalisers especially goals scored by defenders. By the time Njenje took over things were starting to fall apart and he was not good enough to maintain the momentum.
De Sa is going to put the final nail in the coffin, not only is his personality going to become an issue but he is starting from scratch. I don't see Pirates doing well this season, if anything I think they are in for a tough season and in the end player power is going to be De Sa's undoing. I honestly don't see De Sa lasting the entire season, not many Pirates players will stand being scolded or being sworn at.

It is how you have played so far that should concern you. The swag and fighting spirit that Pirates showed immediately after the 3-0 drubbing by Chiefs is gone. De Sa and Benni might have put up a public show of reconciliation but they are bound to butt heads soon, the Mushin Ertugral syndrome is going to be a big factor this season. Simply put factors that made Pirates bounce back in previous seasons are absent this season as a result it is going to be a tough season.
Khoza should never have let Krol go, that decision is going to haunt him this season.

Only one cup has been played this season boss, your question does not make sense.
We have picked up 13 points from a possible 15 and are obviously top of the log. Pirates have 4 points out of a possible 12 points, clubs get relegated picking points at a rate of 1/3 more worrying is you don't even know where your goals are going to come from whilst we play so freely goals are the least of our concerns.

Fortunately Pirates is not like CHIEFS and what happened with Moshin at Chiefs will not happen to Bucs, this is not a “copy and paste” issue. There were real reasons why Dr Khoza didn’t renew Krol’s contract which I may share with you if you are interested. As much as we (the ghost) still want Krol back to the ship as well, it was a sound business decision the Dr took not to renew his contract.
It is not the first time Pirates started like this, for the past two seasons we started badly and went on to win a treble and this season is no different, actually there is no crises at Bucs, we are only 4 games in the league and lost a mere one game. Roger-that is the right man to take us forward at the moment, we can’t cry for Krol forever. He did fairly well at Wits for some time now without the galaxy of players Pirates have so he should surely do even better…

I'm not questioning the way chiefs is playing at the momnet and indeed credit should be given to them, they are on fire. I'm just concerned with what some of your fellow supporters are sayong and celebrating as if the won something already.
Point of correction, work on your mathematics skill, it seem to be running away from you, Pirates 4 points???
