Dedication to Rutendo Tapiwa Chigudu

By Rumbidzai Dube and Tinotenda Hondo Born on 24 August 1983, Rutendo Tapiwa Chigudu was a bubbly, beautiful and ageless daughter, mother, sister and friend.  She left this world suddenly on 6 May 2021 while in Johannesburg, South Africa and was laid to rest on 16 May 2021 in Rusape, Zimbabwe her birthplace. Rutendo was larger than life, gutsy and an incurable optimist who went through life’s most gruelling experiences with unfailing hope. She had a mischievous twinkle in her eyes and a loud, boisterous laugh that would light up her beautiful face, bringing bursts of sunshine into her eyes. If the smiling emoji was a person, then Rutendo would have been the muse.

I refuse to call it an obituary, but reflections. To many, she was R Tendo, a bastardised version of her first name, Rutendo (in picture) with Phillip. To me, she was just Tendo.
