Tribute To Moruti Pule

And the late Moruti Pule, or Theko Tlase as he was commonly known, belonged to us now...he was a community man, nation builder, story teller, marriage advisor, businessman, family man, and to some like me he was a friend...he would go every home and preach peace, love and reconciliation...he had his own way of saying thing, you would need a spiritual ear and time to understand him.

I loved his teachings ne a mpha tlhogo tota...and I pray his teachings and words can leave in all of us remaining...in all the instances that I met him I always felt recharged and new...Moruti Pule loved God and he gave all his life to God.

He would close his shop for a prayer session. He would close his shop for burial services, he would close his shop to go Moria to pray...indeed Theko Tlase was true Man of God...and am happy while he was still alive I visited him at his shop and told him he is doing a good job for the community, I did not wait for him to leave this world ke bo ke bua...One thing I knew about was he was a time conscious man who he believed in time management.

He believed in saying things the way they were...”TRUTH” e ka nako dile dintsi did not sit well with many people... In him not only has family lost, River Villages have lost, as we mourn this man, this Good Man...May God give the family strength and courage...Yes we can cry but re lele jaaka batho ba ba tlhologanyang, ebile ba itse.

A Moya Wa Ga Moruti Pule O Bone Ikhutso O Robale Ka Kagiso. Ma ZION amatle gomotsegang abile le ikgomotse ka ba bangwe. This past weekend all roads lead to Sikwane...to bid farewell to this Good Man. Kgotsoong!!!!Kgotsoong!!!
