The late KAUNDA will be put to rest on Saturday, 27th January, 2018, at Pax College in Polokwane, Limpompo Province, South Africa .

He was based in South Africa working as the Regional Superior of the Catholic Religious Congregation of the Brothers of Charity for Zambia and South Africa.
Brother Kaunda died in an accident on his way from the OR Tambo international airport on his return from Cameroon where he had gone for mission work.
