Turkey Lane, a street in Roseau, will be named after the late Cardinal Kelvin Felix who will be laid to rest following a memorial mass on Wednesday. Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit made the announcement in an interview with state-owned DBS Radio after viewing the body of the deceased clergyman on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“Just to say that we will be renaming Turkey Lane in his honor,” he said.<\/p>\n

“That will be ratified in cabinet today and the necessary arrangements will be made for a proper ceremony, improvements to the street, and so forth. Of course, we will get from the Catholic Church the precise nomenclature that we should use.”<\/p>\n

He explained that the gesture is being done in honor, remembrance, and appreciation of the Cardinal’s contribution to Dominica, “the region, and to the world.”<\/p>\n

“I am fortunate to have [had] many occasions to meet with him, especially when he was resident in Soufriere,” Skerrit remarked.<\/p>\n

“He always had some very good and sincere advice.”<\/p>\n

His Eminence Kelvin Edward Cardinal Felix died on Thursday, May 30, at the age of 91. He was the highest-ranking Roman Catholic churchman to ever come out of Dominica. From priest to Archbishop and then to Cardinal, he reached the highest echelon of authority in the Church.<\/p>\n

He also held many prominent positions including the President of the Antilles Episcopal Conference and the Caribbean Conference of Churches.<\/p>\n

In 2014, he was made a Cardinal by Pope Francis. Sometimes called “Princes of the Church,” Cardinals have two chief duties – assisting the pope in the governance of the vast worldwide Church and, above all, electing each new pontiff whom they serve.<\/p>\n

He was also honored with Dominica\u2019s highest accolade, the Dominica Award of Honour, in 1999.<\/p>\n

Turkey Lane intersects with Cross Street and connects Victoria Street and Independence Street in the capital of Dominica.<\/p>\n

Landmarks on or near the street include Our Lady of Fair Haven Cathedral, the Neg Mawon Emancipation Monument, St Mary’s Academy, and the Electoral Office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Turkey Lane, a street in Roseau, will be named after the late Cardinal Kelvin Felix who will be laid to rest following a memorial mass on Wednesday.
