A tribute to our brother Bernard Dsilva
A WONDERFUL PERSON
This is the Common attribute we observe from NSEW, of anyone who were close to BERNARD or just about Anyone who Knew him.
 In a Silent (Cerebral) way, you were with us, Armed with your perpetual smile. Your Aura reflected life with no pretensions, taking each moment, the challenges sometimes bitter and sometimes sweet, in your stride, keeping your best foot forward (Rufus) Always dedicated to your passion hobby in the field of Electronics, later made it your profession, where you did achieve, with hard work and sacrifice, and silently made us proud.
Sure, at number Seven you were for the family a gift from Heaven, and with an over populated family of six, in precedence, pardon us, we were not wise enough to realise. 
 You asserted your presence, with your mutter, when you could barely utter at 3.
This at the Dining table, with a Taciturn Host and head Rufus (Father)With your child hood perception, of anything and everything you drew him to laughter Lunch or dinner, now was entertainment, to look forward to, with youthful appetites sans too much etiquette. 
One of your favorites was” Give me My long-sleeved pants “(for leggings in winter)
There were many arrows of, cutting edge wit and humor in your quiver always ready to deliver, your beloved Marika, friends, family and associates, enjoyed.
This talent, was your only way of communication, Keeping everyone at ease and the world hassle free.
 There were lots on your plate to offer, of life and living that is never too late that we should emulate, be it the Old or young. 
  You were, The Ultimate Ethereal Victim of Time and Destiny 
 The why’s how’s ifs will always reverberate down here with many.  
 The only solace and comfort for us now is of knowing that you are not “Knocking on Heavens Door” and that the Rite of passage is Yours In, the celestial abode in the comfort peace and joy, and Arms of the Lord.

I’ll always remember Bernie for his quiet nature, kind manner and constant smile. It’s hard to picture him without that smile—it was such a special part of who he was.

Bernie will be fondly remembered.

May God give Marika and all the D'Silva family strength during this difficult time. You are in my prayers.

May Bernie's soul rest in eternal peace🙏

This memorial for our beloved Bunpao, Bernie, is for friends n family in Mumbai / India.

Dear Marika, DSilva family and Romaeo family, 
May you find the strength you need to see you through this difficult time, 
Remembering that...
There is no problem too big God cannot solve it,
There is no mountain too  tall He cannot move it, 
And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it, 
There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it.
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders,
I know my cousins that He will carry you!

Rest in peace Bernie, have fun playing 'Jack n the monkey' and cheering Daffy on!.
Love Basil and Elaine.

Dear Marika, Maria ,Christopher, claire, Greg, Joan & Audrey

I always loved talking to Bernie. He was so calm and easygoing, always ready with a funny comment. I have such great memories of us as young boys going to Gorai. We used to sit on the beach and talk all night, then wake up feeling so refreshed. It was magical to have the whole family there, and Bernie made that togetherness feel even more special.

Even when things were tough, Bernie never seemed rattled. Whenever I asked about his health, he’d just wave it off like it was nothing and say it would pass. He never wanted anyone to worry.

My heart goes out to the D’Silva and Romaeo families. Bernie was a truly kind person and someone who will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

He was the quiet unassuming guy with a quick repartee  definitely not mischievous but  kind eyes. Alwayz considered him 'the sweet heart of the Dsilva Boyz ',amongst 3 brothers , Bernie being the youngest . As his older sisters in law Dinks and I used to raid his  room on the loft (really his private domain) to rummage and clean  and  discovered his passion for collecting gadgets of all sizes and whatnot.   We came to know then he loved fixing these gadgets .such was this  adolescent who built his dreams further

Very shocking to hear about Bernie .He was a kid when he was with us in Aurangabad. I remember Aunty Jennie calling out to him , still can hear her voice calling out his name . He was such a sweet child . He really left us too early .I can imagine what your family must be going through.

I pray to God to give the family strength to bear this loss . May his soul rest in peace.

Neeta & Satish Patwardhan.

My deepest condolences to Claire, Greg, Dinky and the rest of the D’Silva family on the sudden tragic loss of your loved one. No amount of words will comfort you’ll at this difficult time but I hope and pray time will heal some of the pain and you’ll will only remember the happy times you’ll shared. You’ll are in my thoughts and prayers. May God grant him eternal rest 🙏

I was shocked and very sad to hear of our dear Bernie passing away in such a tragic manner. Too early to leave us. Just can't get over it. We had the privilege  of meeting Bernie in Nov.2025 when he spent the day with us in Canada. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy.  May God give Marika and the rest of the D'silva clan the strength  to bear Bernie's sudden tremendous loss. May his soul Rest in Peace.

🕊️sending strengh love and my deepest condolences to the family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and family. Take comfort in knowing he is now in the hands of Jesus.

May his soul rest in eternal peace and  heartfelt condolences to the entire family .

I recall Bernie as a quiet neighbor and gentle soul. Heartfelt condolences to his entire family. May his soul Rest in Eternal Peace! 🙏

Dear Maria, Joan,  Audrey and  All the Family of Bernie...

Fond memories flash back of a gentle young boy always wearing a smile.  Hard to believe he's left this world so suddenly..yet..our faith will see us through!

May each of you find comfort in knowing he's in a happier place where we will all reunite in the presence of Jesus !

May his Sweet Soul rest in eternal peace.

With you in your grief,

Yvette Gonsalves

Bernard you left us quietly your thoughts unknown.
We will cherish the good times we all shared together. 
The ever present moment was always your challenge and it took you away to God’s abode.
Rest in peace for when on earth you were one of the best to us all family and friends.
We miss your presence and voice and cherish your comments and jokes forever.
With a saddened heart I wish thee so long ,Farewell till we meet again
Chris and Yvette

Bernard was truly one-of-a-kind gem. Through thick-and-thin he was always in a good mood, and so happy and positive. His empathy for those around him was also second-to-none. He was one of the few true good souls that I had the fortune of meeting in my life, and while I am saddened that he is no longer with us, I believe he would want us all to smile and remain positive in life just as he had. My deepest condolences to all of his family and friends.

I have known Bernie for a very long time and though I didn't see him often, he always left a wonderful impression. He was such a loving and gentle soul. Looking back at my wedding photos and seeing him there reminded me of his kindness. He will be missed.

I am deeply saddened to hear about Bernie's passing. My heart reaches out to his wife, sisters, brothers n the entire family in this time of grief. Bernie will always be remembered for his kindness n his everlasting smile. Losing Bernie is unimaginable. May his soul rest in eternal peace n his memories  stay with us.

I had the good fortune of hanging out with Bernie when we were kids. I knew him through Carl-one of my best buddies and brother. Bernie, Baz, Carl and I had many a ‘sessions’ together. Boy oh boy, he sure could out-drink any one of us I recall he was physically very strong. What a real gem of a guy Bernie was. He will be fondly missed. My condolences to his wife and the whole family.

Rest in Peace dear Bernard

Gone way too soon Bernie.
You were THE ONE, who greeted everyone with the same warm smile — the guy who never had enemies, only friends (even the shy ones).  Our SHERLY neighbourhood always felt nicer because you were in it. 
Rest peacefully buddy

Bernie (Doc to his close friends) will surely miss you. I remember playing cricket in your compound in Sherly Village, plucking mangoes, Love Apples, Aulas, parties we had. You always had a smile on your face and very accommodating. Eternal rest grant to him oh Lord and let thy perpetual light shine on him. Amen🥲

Dear Marika,  please accept our sincere condolences, it was indeed shocking to hear the tragic loss of Bernard.  May God comfort you and give you strength to heal and keep you safe and well.  Take care dear.  Love Mel and Patty

My heartfelt condolences dear Marika and family and to the D’Silva family . May God comfort you all at this time and give you the strength to bear this loss and may dear Bernie’s soul RIP 🙏🏽

Remembering this moment with Uncle Bernie surrounded by family and friends. May he rest in peace, and may his family be surrounded by love, comfort, and strength during this difficult time.

HI BERNIE,
I can still picture your radiant SMILE which made me feel always welcome whenever I visited your house as a kid and your BIG hi whenever I passed by . Thanks 💕

May he rest in peace. The driver who fled the scene, his insurance company has to be sued for millions of dollars. It is small compensation for his death, but it has to be done.

God swept you away on the wings of a snow white dove up to the heavens above.  May you rest peacefully in his care Bernie. You will be missed here on earth but you were The precious chosen one.......
with prayers and heartfelt deepest condolemces to Marika and the whole D'Silva and Romaeo families
