Dear Editor,
Dr. Roger Forbes Luncheon’s funeral epitomised the man he was, punctuated with a great sense of statesmanship, servitude and unassuming authority. One of his many hallmarks, including his ability to contingently plan and mitigate any situation was evident there, when he read his own eulogy. His attributes was on full display with scores of grassroots and those in the hierarchy of leadership attending.
The ceremony had the Luncheon touch from start to end, the hymn from his alma mater, sonnets, Bob Marley, all of which were his last wishes culminating with the gathering of comrades he loved and those that loved him. He made an indelible mark on many of us, in and out of government.
His name will be forever etched in the annals of history as a National Icon. It was a great honour and I will forever be thankful for serving with him. Farewell HPS. “The Administration has noted your contributions.”
Sincerely,
Ronald A. Harsawack, M.P.A,
Former Special Assistant
Head of the Presidential Secretariat
