March 18, 2001 — April 27, 2026

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the untimely passing of our beloved Mphathisi Listen Mzangwa, who was taken from us far too soon on April 27, 2026, at the tender age of just over one month. Born on March 18, 2026, in the warm embrace of Kopanong, Mphathisi brought immeasurable joy and hope to his family and community in his brief time with us. Mphathisi was the cherished son of Thelma Justin Mzangwa, who fondly remembers him as her "smile keeper" and the light of her life. Though his time was short, he left a lasting legacy of laughter and love, a testament to the bright spirit he inherited from his family. His presence was a source of comfort and happiness, making everyone who encountered him feel a little brighter. Though Mphathisi was only beginning his journey through life, he was already making strides in his education at Michael Rua Primary School. His enthusiasm for learning and his love for soccer were evident, marking him as someone who would have undoubtedly made a remarkable impact in his community and beyond. A general worker at the China State Construction, Mphathisi was known for his diligence and reliability. His coworkers remember him for the joy he brought into the workplace and the laughter that followed him wherever he went. Mphathisi’s love for soccer was not just a hobby but a way of life; it was a passion that connected him with friends and brought out the best in his cheerful and kind-hearted nature. To know Mphathisi was to know a young soul filled with promise and a zest for life. He was known for his good spirit, and his laughter was as infectious as it was heartwarming. His radiant personality lit up the room, and he was a beacon of hope and happiness for those lucky enough to know him. A service to celebrate Mphathisi’s life will be held on May 9, 2026, at 08:00 AM at Mountain City B2157. Friends and family are invited to gather, share memories, and honor the beautiful life of a young boy who touched so many in such a short time. In a heartfelt message, his family shares, "You had a bright future coming in your life. You made me feel safe with you. I was really happy with you. You were my smile keeper, my heart. I am nothing without you in this journey. Uhlale wazi ukuthi ngiyo hlezi ngikuthanda. You will always be forever in my heart." Mphathisi Listen Mzangwa's legacy of joy and laughter will be cherished forever, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace, dear Mphathisi, for you will always live on in our hearts.
