Khumalo’s daughter Nonhlanhla Khumalo praised her parents for teaching them humility, selflessness and the love of society. “It is sad and a joyous day for me at the same time to get an opportunity to talk about my parents," she said.
"I would express three things that we learnt from our parents. They cared, loved and cared for each other. Even when they argued, we knew deep down they loved each other. They acted the same in public and at home. My parents had love for culture and language. They taught us to prioritise education. Education was important to them. They used to say we will never choose for you what to study or who to marry.
Bishop Thandi Sithole, Khumalo's younger sister, said from a young age he showed passion for the language and the culture. “My brother was a caring and loving person. I remember when he came to Johannesburg he studied and found a job. He used to send my parents money every month until they died. He was that kind of person who always wanted to care for his own,” Sithole said.
“With his wife, they were a perfect combination. With both dying almost at the same time it is painful for us as the family. Rose had an amazing spirit. She always made you feel welcome when you visit them. Looking at how they passed last week, it shows that the words 'till death do us apart' really existed in that house.Choir conductor Sydwell Mhlongo, who worked with Khumalo for many years, said he was very strict when it came to music. “He never allowed us to make mistakes.
Former TV presenter and choral music tenor Themba Mkhwani, whose tenor talent was moulded by Khumalo, said: “I met Bab’uKhumalo in 1993, he mentored me until I was one of the highly respected tenors. He used me when he was composing his music in songs such as. In 2005, he invited me to join him in Ohio [US] where we taught white kids how to sing Zulu choral music. We have lost a great man indeed.”
