Cheerful and hardworking Bem
On October 9, 2022, towards 8 pm, Bem Basil breathed his last. For all who knew him, it was not a sad day because of the Christian hope that both Bem and they had. Many spent that day in prayer and as news of his death spread, the sadness began to change to thanksgiving. This is how Bem would have wanted us all to react to his passing into eternity.
