Interview with Tim Marneweck
Tim had two sons at St David’s in the 70’s, Peter John and Paul.
Peter John was originally a sportsman on leaving school. He was a good cricketer, swimmer and rugby
player and was the first MOB to play professional cricket. He went into the army for the first 5 years then
became a provincial cricketer playing for the Transvaal cricket union in the 1980’s. After working in a sport
shop, then for McCullough and Bothwell, he eventually joined Liberty Life in 2000 and now has his own
franchise.
Paul, the younger son left school in the early 1980’s when Mr Murphy was headmaster. He went into the
army and was trained in guidance missiles and became a lecturer in the subject. He then went to work for
First National Bank for 19 years and is now sales manager for Old Mutual in the financial services
department.
Tim was on the St David’s school council (this was initially formed as an advisory council in 1970) until
1976 and then on the board of governors until 1983 with Kevin Brewer joining the Board in 1984. Tim
continued to work with the brothers behind the scenes and was a member of the Diocesan committee and
Bishop’s committee for close on 40 years, knew Br Jude well and thought of him as a “Walking Saint”.
There was a lot of controversy over the sale of the land on which the “Inandas” now stand. The land and
property belonged to the brothers and Tim is bound not to discuss this but acknowledges that the brothers
were satisfied with the result and Tim was given a certified document from the Marist Brothers of South
Africa Province in gratitude of generous devotedness towards the interests of the brothers. He took a lot of
flack and had promised not to talk about it at the time. He was also presented with a relic of Marcellin
Champagnat, something very special
At the time of the sale there was a lot of politics and tax involved. The brothers couldn’t be seen to be
dealing in property and the brothers did get a share of the profits as the monies came in.
Other MOBS that Tim mentioned were John Mills and said it was amazing what he did for the Diocese,
turning it around and getting all the churches to play their part. Others involved in this were Charles
Rowlinson and David Lawrence.
