His close friend, Parker Mampori told Mmegi Sport that he first met with the nippy left-footed player in 1996 at Chiefs. He was one of the youngsters at the club at the time alongside Mareledi 'Pele' Moleboge. "I once stayed with him in the same house in Phase IV with Pele (Moleboge). He liked to crack jokes and it is a pity that today we are mourning him. We talked a lot over the phone about different things even after he retired from football. When he worked in Orapa, he always told me that he wanted to come back to Gaborone to push some of his projects," Mampori said. He added that to show that he wanted to achieve something in life, Kehitile had a farm. "When I checked him in hospital, I never thought we would lose him and I was shocked when I heard about his death," said Mampori.
Extension Gunners' coach, Daniel 'Chicco' Nare said he could not believe it when he heard that Kehitile has passed on. He shared the same sentiments with Mampori that Kehitile liked to crack jokes. "When I was at Chiefs, the way he over-lapped helped our course a lot. Even when he stopped playing, we used to phone each other. I will miss him," he said.
