The distraught parents of Reeva Steenkamp paid an emotional tribute to their daughter on the 10th anniversary of her murder.
June threw red roses into the ocean to remember their beloved daughter, shot by Oscar Pistorius on Valentine’s Day 2013.
Barry watched her poignant gesture sitting on the edge of Summerstrand beach.
They were joined by close friends on the beach near Port Elizabeth. It was the very same stretch of coastline where they scattered Reeva’s ashes after her death.
The Steenkamps invited Mirror Online to come to record the event.
June said: “Reeva was the perfect daughter and despite being 10 years on the pain is still exactly the same.
“We came here, because my closest friend who sat by me throughout the trial, died last year of cancer and we came to scatter her ashes today.
“We felt we wanted their ashes to be together in the same part of the ocean.”
The private low-key ceremony was marked by the couple bravely smiling as they recalled special memories of their daughter stretching back to her childhood.
They arrived at the beach by car at 10.30am and spent half an hour there before leaving.
June added: “I have no desire to see Oscar ever again - even if he is released in the coming months.
“But we have no say in whether he will be released.”
Reeva was killed on Valentine's Day 2013 when hit by four bullets in the apartment she shared with Pistorius.
Pistorius insisted he thought there was an intruder inside the toilet, but in the end received a 13 1/2-year jail sentence for murder.
He could be allowed free from jail, where he has been driving a farm tractor inside the grounds, in the next few weeks.
