Rev. Br. Edward KOWALA SDB

R.I.P.

A Salesian of Don Bosco for 60 years, Br. Edward KOWALA died on Friday 10 February 2017 in Hong Kong’s Canossa Hospital, aged 90. Born in what is now the Czech Republic, he did military service during WW II, ending up prisoner of war in England. There he came to know the Salesian Society which he joined in 1956. In 1958 he volunteered to come to Hong Kong as a missionary. Br. Edward’s educative pastoral service, after two years in Aberdeen Technical School (1960-1962), was offered mainly in St. Louis School, where her served for more than 50 years, (1962-1974.1977-2017). The only interruption was a 3-year study for a Divinity Bachelor Degree in Maynooth, Ireland, which he undertook in view of his teaching of Biblical Knowledge in St. Louis School.

The Salesians of Don Bosco are grateful to the Don Bosco Past Pupils of St. Louis School, the Little Sisters of the Poor in Aberdeen, and the staff of Canossa Hospital, who all took loving care of Br. Edward in the last months of his long life.The Salesians and his past pupils remember Br. Edward as a beloved brother and loving father, a dedicated teacher, a jolly companion in soccer matches, a zealous educator and pastor of youth, a gentleman, and a friend.

There will be a Requiem Mass on Friday 17 February at 08:00 p.m. in St. Anthony’s Church, 69A, Pokfulam Road, West Point, Hong Kong. The Funeral Mass will be held on Saturday 18 February at 10:00 a.m. in the same Church. Burial will follow in St. Michael’s Catholic Cemetery in Happy Valley.
