Trelawny’s civic and political leaders, senior police officers and firefighters, paid their respects to Her Majesty, The Queen by signing the Condolence Book in her honour on Friday (September 16).

Custos Gentles told JIS News that the Condolence Book, which was previously at the Trelawny Municipal Corporation in Falmouth, will be taken to the southern section of the parish to facilitate residents, who wish to pay their respects.

As such, it will be at the Custos’ location at Lowe River in Albert Town on Monday (September 19), which is the National Day of Mourning, and on Tuesday (September 20).

It returns to the Custos’ Falmouth office on Wednesday (September 21), before returning to Lowe River on Thursday (September 22).
