    Thank you PM Hon. Dr. Kenny Anthony for coming to Dominica for the State Funeral of Dr. N. Liverpool. Your kind words for Dr. Liverpool is greatly appreciated.

    Hope your short stay was an enjoyable one. I know this is not your first visit. However, please visit again!

    Sorry I missed it. :) I attended a funeral service on Friday in Toronto. May I state, for the late Rosamund Elie, wife of Davidson (Son Son) Elie, sister of Madonis Doctrove and Barber Dyer’s sister-in-law. I thought, this is why Barber was not able to attend her funeral.
    Those of us D/cans who were present reminded each other of the passing of Dr. Liverpool and of his State Funeral on that same day and wished we were able to attend.
    It was a beautiful, sunny, warm day in Toronto. I hope it was the same in Dominica.
    God’s love and peace!

    Dr. Liverpool served as President of the Commonwealth of Dominica from Oct. 2, 2003 to Sep. 17, 2012 after a long career as a law lecturer, judge and diplomat and served during the period when Dominica became the most dictatorial corrupt island in the OACS. Dr .Kenny Anthony should have added.
