We have been asked on behalf of the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Stephen Corbishley, to invite you and your family to the annual Bermuda Police Service Memorial Service and Ex-Police Officers’ Association (ExPo) Reception being held at Prospect, at the start of Police Week on Sunday, 7th October 2018.
The evening starts at 4.30pm with a Memorial Service for our departed Police colleagues at the Police Cemetery in Prospect (entry via Fort Hill Rd/Alexandra Road). The Police Colours will be marched in, accompanied by the Senior Command of the Bermuda Police Service.
In addition this year’s Memorial Service will include the Hall Family interring the ashes of Former Police Constable Andrew Hall.
Wreaths will be laid at the Police Memorial by H.E. The Governor, Commissioner Corbishley, Hon. Minister Wayne Caines, Reserve Commandant, RBR Commanding Officer, President of ExPo, and the Hall Family, with the Commissioner reading the names of the Officers and Reserves who have died in the last 2 years.
Immediately following this Service everyone is invited back to the Police Recreation Club (PRC) patio.This will be followed by a Reception hosted by the Commissioner on the PRC patio for our Police and Expo members, families and friends. The Reception is FREE and there will be a cash bar.
The Memorial Service provides us with an opportunity to remember our departed colleagues, and to share this time with their family members. We have endeavoured to make this a touching ceremony and families or individuals who wish to do so can lay wreaths or flowers at a particular time during the service.
There should be ample parking space immediately outside the cemetery for everyone attending. For those with mobility problems we recommend that they go straight to the PRC patio shortly after 5pm as it may be quite a long walk for them through the cemetery.
It would be most appreciated if you can confirm if you will be attending so we can help to estimate numbers for the catering of the reception. Please RSVP to our Vice President, Calvin Smith, the Commissioner's Staff Officer (see details below).
Hoping to see you there.
Kind regards
Brian Robinson, President ExPo
