In remembrance: Pheliswa Agnes Masekwana

04 April 2025

Dear colleagues and students

It is with immense sadness that we inform you of the passing of our colleague, Mrs Pheliswa Agnes Masekwana (50), on Thursday, 27 March 2025 due to natural causes.

Mrs Masekwana joined the University of Cape Town (UCT) in July 2016 as a student housing cleaner at Tugwell Hall Residence.

Her colleagues have described her as a humble person with a positive spirit, who remained calm in any situation. She was known for being a dedicated worker who genuinely cared for others.

She is survived by her husband Thobile; daughter Anelisa; and son Khaya.

Her funeral will be held on Saturday, 5 April 2025 at the International Gospel of Christ Ministries in Philippi, Cape Town.

The university has reached out to offer support to the Masekwana family, and our heartfelt condolences go out to them and all who knew our late colleague.

Sincerely

The UCT Executive
