The burial of the late Cde Dickson “Chinx” Chingaira’s wife, Patricia Makoni, has been set for Thursday in Harare, a family spokesperson has said.
Makoni lost her battle against breast cancer at her Mabelreign home on Sunday.
Family spokesperson and Cde Chinx’s son, Lenin Chingaira confirmed the developments.
“We lost our mother on Sunday due to breast cancer. She fought hard for years,” he said.
“As a family, we have lost a pillar and life will never be the same without her. Her burial will take place on Thursday in Harare.”
Lenin said his mother was a great fighter who has left behind a rich legacy.
“My mother was an ex-combatant. She taught us to be principled and respectful. We will miss her wisdom and the boldness she had when it came to instilling discipline at home. She was a real combatant,” said Lenin, who was visibly devastated.
“She was also a musician in her own right as she sang alongside her late husband, my father.”
Cde Chinx passed away in 2017 after his battle with blood cancer.
Mourners are gathered at Number 17 Takeley Drive in Mabelreign, Harare.
