Ferguson certainly emptied himself in the short life lived.
Amazing obituaries at the is family man, and at his Home-going to mention in particular this quote from his other rib Connie Ferguson: " You and I were joined at the hip, now I feel completely off balance, incomplete, with my other half. My soulmate."

The Africa Global Heritage Foundation mourns Meritorious nominee, the lawyer who helped Nelson Mandela escape the death penalty Joel Joffe in 1964, at the time of the Rivonia trial.

As the instructing solicitor for Nelson Mandela’s defence team at the Rivonia trial of 1963-64, Joel Joffe, later Lord Joffe, died aged 85, played a key role in helping the future South African president and others avoid the death penalty. That was the severest sentence that could have resulted from being convicted of sabotage, and Mandela described Joffe as “the general behind the scenes in our defence”.

After the trial, Joffe visited Mandela in jail on Robben Island and was told that there would be no appeal. With the case over and his profile raised immeasurably, he and his wife – Vanetta Pretorius, an artist, whom he had married in 1962 – had won the admiration of black South Africans but had a more mixed reception among white ones. In 1965 he resurrected his plans to settle in Australia, but when that country refused him access as an “undesirable”, due mainly to his involvement with the Rivonia trial, he and Vanetta headed to the UK to make their new home.
