RIP Al Debbo (1924 – 2011)

19 July 2011 By admin

The FF Plus has with great sadness taken note of the passing away of Al Debbo and expressed its sympathy with his family during this time.

Al Debbo was one of the extremely talented actors and comedians who could act without a script and still be funny and his passing away spells the end of an era. According to Adv. Anton Alberts, FF Plus Parliamentary spokesperson on Arts and Culture, Al Debbo will always be remembered for his empathy with others, his love for his people and to make them laugh, his love for his family and for his country.

“During my time as Head of Legal Services at MNet, I came to know Al Debbo personally and he enriched our lives by, amongst others, being one of the first faces on KykNET. He was a man who crawled deep into our hearts and we will always remember him. He was a true legend,” Alberts added.

Al Debbo also often at the request of the party acted at gatherings where he stole the hearts of young and old. As a member of the defence force’s entertainment division for many years, he also showed that he was a patriot especially due to the fact that he had received offers to work in Hollywood which he turned down. His passing away leaves our hearts a little emptier but we are grateful for the time he had been here to enrich our lives.
