I first heard of Henry Kila's passing on the EM TV 6pm news bulletin after that fateful weekend. I told my family in the living room to watch the news (as half of my family are also from Yule Island and related to our late brother) as news of his death was being announced. <br /><br />Like many Papua New Guineans, I have come to know Henry Kila for over 20 years. It is a sad and great loss for our business community and the government as well as to his Kairuku and Central people; including the whole country. <br /><br />Henry was a great person and a friend to many people and had a great sence of humour and goodwill towards others. He liked to be around people of any background and was very helpful in many ways. I can recall his clever wit and good humour during Carbine Club luncheons and in many other social gatherings with family, friends and professional associates over the years. Thank you HK for the good memories. <br /><br />Yes, HK will be dearly missed by all who came into contact with him; either in their professional and personal capacities. I join with fellow PNGeans, his Delena and Yule Island village family and relatives; including his New Ireland family and 'tambus' to pay tribute to this great Papuan son, and Papua New Guinean who did a lot for the development of business, sport, his province and our country.<br /><br />May our dear brother and good friend Henry Kila rest in eternal peace with the creator of our universe; our Lord God.<br /><br />Farewell, bamahuta, haparua to you, brother HK. May God richly bless you in his mansion.<br /><br />Reginald RenagiReginald Renaginoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28244882.post-75397457609564599312010-01-06T14:03:10.811+10:002010-01-06T14:03:10.811+10:00HK was a great man, humble, good humored, great pe...HK was a great man, humble, good humored, great personality and a noble exemplary Papua New Guinean.
