OBITUARY
Dr Harry G de Wet 10 September 1963 - 21 May 2017
Sadly Dr Harry de Wet passed away on Sunday 21st May in a light aircraft crash.
Harry was the beloved husband of Gail, a devoted and proud father of Chris and Natalie, a colleague and friend to Dr Piotr Kalebka, Leanni Shaefner, Robynne Linklater and Dr Steven Kingsley and a respected and well-loved dentist to his patients.
Affectionately known as "The Gentle Giant". Harry was devoted to his patients and would always go the extra mile for them, even working on public holidays or flying back from family holidays to see to an emergency.
Harry qualified with a BDS from Wits in 1988 and later a qualification in Implantology from the University of Stellenbosch.
He served two years in the Defence Force before moving in to private practice, where he became known for his clinical excellence in general dentistry, orthodontics and implantology.
Whenever possible, Harry would escape the busy dental surgery for the African bush or to indulge in his absolute passion, ..flying his Piper Arrow or his beloved Yak, known by many of us as his mistress.
Harry epitomised the sentiment of the words of the poem "Impressions of Pilot" by Gary Claude Stoker:
"Flight is freedom in its purest form"
He will be sorely missed by his family, friends, colleagues and his staff.
MAY HIS SPIRIT SOAR FREELY WITH THE EAGLES.
Robynne Linklater
