Former Blue Bulls president passed away.
15 January 2013
The Blue Bulls are sad to hear about the passing of one of their former presidents (and life-long vice presidents) Piet Olivier.
The former president (78), who suffered from cancer, passed away at the Little Company of Mary Hospital in Pretoria on Monday, January 14th, 2013.
“It is a sad day for all of us as we lost a real stalwart. Piet Olivier was a very passionate man and served the BBRU with great pride and distinction,” incumbent president of the BBRU, Louis Nel said.
Olivier was president of the Blue Bulls Rugby Union from 1998 till 2001 after he served as a vice president for many years. He first joint the BBRU as administrator as chairman of the former Yskor Rugby Club in 1977.
He work at Yskor as a production manager and later for Steelforged, a subsiduary of Iscor, as general manager.
Olivier also was a former mayor of Pretoria.
He will be buried out of the Dutch Reformed Church, Pretoria East (across the road from Loftus Versfeld) on Friday January 18th at 11am.
