I had known Raymond personally for over twenty-five years. As an investigative writer, I was always troubled by the way the world treated her. I was always at pains to justify my ignorance at doing nothing to change the life of this beautiful human being. Unable to keep quiet anymore, I began to investigate. Through most of the guilt and anguish that rocked Raymond's emotions, I was there, watching. Even when the inevitable moment came for her to publicly go out as a woman, I was there, too. The result is the heart-felt account of her life, as told by her over several years... This account of Raymond's life cover a period up to 1990, when she enters formal employment.
In keeping with the spirit and celebration of women, take an opportunity to buy this book and read this fascinating yet sad and touching story of this denied woman. And whatever you do, wherever you are, promise not to ever treat another human being the way you would never wish to be treated. Treat everybody with respect, whether you approve of their lifestyle or not. Being so close to my subject has taught me the true meaning of the saying: the body is the temple of the Lord It taught me also that all people are special and beautiful in their own ways.... We could all make a difference by laughing and loving more and hating little.

"I Love You To Death" Outsells Other Titles By Rebone on Amazon.com
PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 01, 2011 – Mokopane, South Africa.
I LOVE YOU TO DEATH, a short crime fiction ebook that talks about teen love and abusive relationship is fast outselling other works by Rebone Makgato on Amazon. Although the story is short fiction, the genre hasn't discouraged readers and book lovers who purchase and read the ebook. This is primarily because the narration, told in simple everyday English, entices the reader to sub-topics that are so familiar and encountered by young lovers all over the world, especially girls, who always think they'd bagged the right partner.
Rebone masterfully draws the reader to the troubling relationship and teen angst. The reader is immediately drawn into the shoes of Glenda, the rebellious teenager as she becomes helpless in her devotion to her boyfriend Veli.
It was because love has blinded Glenda to such an extent that she worshiped her boyfriend. Much older than Glenda, Veli has been around the block. Even when Veli abused her, she always protected him. He was the best thing to ever happen to her. She never thought of leaving him. Until one day at Veli's friend's birthday bash in Johannesburg when a fight turned nasty.
When she ran away from her upmarket home at the age of eighteen to shack up with Veli, Glenda believed that he was the end of the world.
The trouble with Veli was that he was a drunkard.
And boy, when he was clobbered he argued and used Glenda's beautiful face as a punching bag. But all these teen tribulations weren't to put Glenda down.
One thing Glenda knew was that Veli loved her more than anything in the world - even to death.
The events that led to a brawl one Saturday saw Veli teach Glenda a lesson she would never need to remember because...
He loved her to death.
