We are so grateful to have had you as father. You leave us all with a massive cavern of grief to fill. We take such comfort hearing and telling the story of your frankly, terribly beautiful existence.

Ruski or Rascal was not easy to befriend but for those who did break through his grisly edges secured a lifetime of loyalty. They say you can a judge a person by the quality of their friendships, you all know who you are and I’m an honored to say those friendships became my own.

He loved his family and friends fiercely. His love for his family was often overbearing and not easy to receive but he was always our principle protector and when he did soften, every so often, oh how glorious the love was.

From the back of a match-box to the cutting of the ribbon, his devil was in the detail and he was intimately involved in every detail to the last.

He was a workaholic, a builder of legacies, often not his own. His preoccupation with legacy building perhaps led to his downfall in the end. But he was a compulsive doer.

His life is a rich telemetry - from dairy farmer to a doyen of the hospitality business in South Africa, from hosting royalty and dignitaries in his city hotels to founding the International Hotel School and building theme parks.

Over the 30 years that he flew across the African continent in light engine aircraft, landing in small fields in the Karoo or recently demilitarized airfields in Angola because the engines had cut out, it was a miracle his time did not come sooner.

He was a creative who did not comprehend limits, from training racehorses at the age of 16, to getting his pilot’s license at 21.

I guarded his affection jealously but I know he affected thousands of people across Africa and beyond, whether personally or in the commercial world, where the length and diversity of his exploits are well known.

Our Dad, Russell Stevens, passed on Friday at 11:30. He was a giant of a human being in so many ways. Once described as a combination between Machiavelli and Father Christmas, he was a man of singular focus and boundless generosity: a thread.
