In the 1920’s, a number of young German Brothers were sent on the missions to the Far East, to Ceylon, Burma, Manila, Hong Kong, Penang and Singapore. Many were to meet their sad fate at the hands of the retreating Japanese forces in Manila in February 1945. But those who were fortunate enough to be elsewhere at the time continued to make a very solid contribution to the Lasallian world of education. Among them was Brother Hubert Pilz.

"I was born in Burren on 8th September 1908, where my mother was Principal of the village school", wrote Brother Lawrence."My father worked in Lavelle's bakery, Main Street, Castlebar, and he used to cycle there and back to Burren daily.

In a break with tradition, we feature two Brothers in this issue. They have long gone to their reward. Yet it can be truly said that they were largely responsible for establishing the Lasallian presence in Hong Kong and setting it on a firm foundation. They were the first two Directors/Principals of St Joseph’s College.

Brother Anthony is sometimes referred to as a Hong Kong product, not in the commercial sense but because he was born and bred there and all his life he was conscious of his roots.
