Dr. Douglas, who was given a thunderous applause when his name was called and mounted the stage, thanked the people of the communities of the St. Paul’s Cappisterre region and those of Sandy Point and the neighbouring communities, whose love and support over the years sustained him as a Family Physician/General Practitioner, Member of Parliament and Prime Minister.
“My generous giving to CEMSS was only one way of giving back to this institution that has moulded the lives of these children from these communities whose parents and guardians have contributed so much to my success,” he said.
“I gave the assurance that my support and unswerving loyalty to the CEMSS in the past, will continue into the future as I am being given the opportunity to serve in any capacity,” Dr. Douglas said.
