"I heard uncle Silas' funeral was fabulous."
"It was. Nothing but the best for family."
―Ronen and Domina Tagge[1]

Between 3 ABY and 4 ABY,[2] a funeral was held for[1] Silas Tagge—the former Head of Weapons Development in the Tagge Corporation[3]—after[1] he was killed by his sister—Lady Domina Tagge—following his unsuccessful attempt to take over control of the company.[3] After[1] he[4] recovered[1] from being blown up by the rogue archaeologist Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra,[5] Ronen Tagge—the nephew of Domina and Silas—caught up with news he had missed, including the funeral. He later discussed the funeral with his aunt, telling[1] her[5] he had heard it was fabulous, to which Domina responded that it was. As she thought back to killing her brother, Domina added that only the best would do for family.[1]

The events of Doctor Aphra (2020) 17 take place after those in War of the Bounty Hunters – Boushh 1 and, according to StarWars.com SWCE 2023: Marvel Reveals Star Wars: Dark Droids Horror Event and More on StarWars.com (backup link), before the events of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which Timelines dates to 4 ABY. As the latter issue establishes that the funeral of Silas Tagge took place between the two issues, it must have taken place between those two years.
