AN INSPIRATIONAL
MEMORIAL SERVICE
“WE CALL YOUR NAME
and
REMEMBER YOUR SERVICE”
At the solemn but celebratory Memorial Service, we
respectfully paid tribute to the life and legacy of our highly
esteemed PDG Narcissus Frett - Moses, our beloved PDG
Charles “Charly” McBride and each of the fourteen departed
Lions for their dedication to humanitarian service.
Lion Chaplain Ronald Greene’s invocation that “those who
mourn shall be comforted,” set the tone for the
Commemoration of Service. With songs of praise and
scriptural readings, we were soothed with peaceful
reminders, “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” and “Let Not Your
Heart Be Troubled!”
In his homily, Rev. Canon Eddie Alleyne offered expressions of
condolence and encouragement to the surviving family
members and Lion brothers and sisters. “Our departed Lions
are martyrs in their own right because they endured and
completed the struggle to serve better”, he acclaimed. He
even advised us with a thought-provoking self-evaluation
question, “Where do we stand in the pandemic of our own
life?”
In conclusion, he eulogized our deceased Lions and
reassured us that, despite our grief and feelings of loss, “Do
not lose heart. Lions are always called to a higher service!”
Special thanks to Lion Monique Brizz-Walker, (Chairperson),
RC Ty’East Alleyne-Bobb, (Co-Chair) and members of the
Memorial Service Committee for a memorable presentation.
