I had hope. Unfortunately when I got to see him at Bokamoso Private Hospital, God had taken him, moments before my arrival. I couldn't believe he was gone for I found a smile on his face. I thought of shaking him and saying stop playing games with such serious things. In my mind he was faking death. I thought of this because he was usually joyful and humorous in his own way. On the other hand, I wondered, which joke did he share before he passed? I immediately thought of our last moments together in the morning when he cooked motogo (soft porridge) for me and forced me to eat it saying I like to avoid eating breakfast.
Unbeknown to me, that motogo was going to sustain me in the most difficult day of my life. Ompatile was such a loving and caring husband. His loss is beyond measure."These are the words of Judith Sianang, the wife of the deceased. As a family, while we are deeply saddened by the loss of Captain Sianang, whom we loved and who loved us back, we take delight in the fact that his life is worth celebrating. He was a man of honour, humility, courage, a soldier in the army and in the Lord.
