Huldeblyke - Tributes - Waldie Volschenk
Deur Marise le Roux
Waldemar Volschenk is gebore op 6 April 1960 in Zeerust (in die destydse Transvaal). Hy was die jongste van twee broers, gebore vir Phillip en Evonne Volschenk. Alhoewel hy nie in Namibië gebore is nie, het hy in dié land grootgeword en sy kinderjare in Namibië het vir baie opwinding gesorg. Hy het altyd met 'n glimlag op sy gesig teruggedink aan sy kinderjare in 'n huis wat gelykheid (tydens die Apartheidsjare) probeer bevorder het en waarin elkeen (nieteenstaande ras, kultuur, taal of geloof) verwelkom is om te gesels en van mekaar te leer.
