Losing a loved one is a bitter pill to swallow.<\/p>\n
For Fortunate Kzole from Klopper Park it was truly heart-breaking when her beloved gogo recently died.<\/p>
However, she said her gogo is smiling down on her from heaven as she won the SPAR Go Big competition to the value of R3 790.<\/p>\n
The first week of May was a sad week for Fortunate and her family as they were dealing with the tragic death of their grandmother.<\/p>
The family went shopping at SPAR Klopper Park on May 1 for the funeral and witnessed a miracle.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy granny is looking after us.<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew it when my uncle told me we had won our groceries.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was so very happy when we won,\u201d said Fortunate.<\/p>\n
Fortunate fondly recalls how she would buy groceries for her granny at SPAR Klopper Park and take them to her when she went home for the weekend.<\/p>\n
