Klerksdorp Midweek, Klerksdorp - The Sanpark Rehabilitation Centre revealed its Garden of Remembrance over the weekend. According to Annaleen van Staden, director, the centre was started in 1963 by the Bekker family. It was previously known as the Bekker Clinic. The name changed in the early 90’s. “It was also the unveiling of our Wall of Remembrance for staff members and volunteers that passed on while in the service of Sanpark.
