I once asked the community at Sunday mass in Francistown whether Jesus had ever been tempted apart from those in the desert. Silas had his hand up: "The woman at the well" he offered. He had a cheeky sense of humour which I always enjoyed. He did magic.He was magic! Rest in peace friend.

That Brother Silas is no more!!! Whenever I meet him my first words are: "Honourable Bro. Silas,..." He used to reply:"No Father, I am just a little servant of God" What a loss! Its hard to beleave, but God is always so Good. With his humility he has just gone to whom he served all heartedly. May your soul Rest in Peace Bro. Silas.

One year with Bro. Silas at Divine Word University of Tacloban, Philippines way back 1980 as regent in formation with Fr. Kito Estepa, SVD. He was very simple. Very accommodating. We were then in temporary vows, but he tried his best to make us feel at home among regular members. RIP, Bro. Silas!

Brother Silas, please continue to work your magic for God and the hosts of heaven and bring some humour to them. Tell God about us and our situation. Enjoy the kingdom of heaven.
