Upon being prompted, she revealed she’d called the thief a “dirty bastard”.“They don’t know how much it meant to a person – you can buy another ring but it’s not the same.”Jopie’s family were concerned about the potential danger of her actions, although community members had rallied around the 91-year-old.“I’ve been living in this house for 65 years … we’ve got so many friends and neighbours and it’s great,” she said.To the intruder, Jopie said: “Go and get yourself a job.”
