I want all of our supporters to pray for the repose of the soul of the late Candice McDonald and the others who died in that tragic boating accident on Sunday night off Mann Island near Harbour Island. Candice is the late girlfriend of T’Sean Mott who is now the treasurer of PYL. I have spoken to Ms McDonald’s parents and to T’Sean. They are understandably distraught and distressed. They need our prayerful support. I assured them that the Leader, Mrs Davis, the Deputy and Mrs Cooper and our entire leadership team are praying for them. Please remember them and all the other families in your prayers.

End
