Barry Steenkamp, the father of the late Reeva Steenkamp, has passed away at the age of 80 due to health complications.
The Reeva Rebecca Steenkamp Foundation confirmed his peaceful passing and expressed their fond remembrance of Barry.
He had previously suffered a stroke during the trial of Oscar Pistorius, who was convicted of shooting Reeva in 2013. Barry is survived by his wife and two children.
Just four weeks ago, he and his wife June paid tribute to their daughter on what would have been her 40th birthday. Pistorius, who is serving a 13-year sentence, hopes his latest bid for parole will be successful next year.
