Hello Sir Jon,
Wishing you & your family all the best for this New
Year.
I know you have spent some time in Barbados, thought you would
like this, also very interesting stuff for all our cricketers.
Sir Jon, I believe you mentioned some time back, someone in
Trinidad, was working on putting together a collection of Abbey School photos
and medals and stuff, is this person still available to continue with this
quest.
Sir Laz. was inquiring about some of our priced collection, that
Sir Nigel sent down to Trinidad.
I believe it is secure with the association in Trinidad.
Anyhow, hopefully something will be done, to represent our
school's history, I hope this is the reason this collection was sent to
Trinidad,
I am hoping this will be addressed by Sir Laz. in his meetings
with the association.
Cheers from Winter-Wonder Land,
Adios, Glen.

Hello My Dear Brother Sir Kazim,
I thank you for this information.
I don't think we can make contact with him, judging from the
email we got from Sir Trevor, about his memory.
I don't know what to say, maybe Sir Nigel could give his wife a
call, telling her we were thinking of him, and we would like her to know, his
brothers were looking for him for some time now, without luck.
We must pray for our brother, and hope he is in peace in his
state of mind.
This completes the enquiries Sir Laz. sent out.
Thank very much My Dear Sirs, for your attention about the
brothers in question.
Best Regards –
Glen.

My Dear Sir Trevor,
Thank you very much for this information.
This should help Sir Laz. in his investigation, on these two
brothers.
I believe this is the brother Arthur Knaggs spoke about to me, a
few years ago, but he was ill then.
I believe he also was the 1st. Boy Scout on the Mount?
Best regards, have a good day my friend,
Cheers, Glen.

Hello, Kazim,
I can see that the list I sent you will provide new email
addresses.
Take for example, Gangaram Rampersad.
He is listed in the database as email address needed.
But, he has been in touch with me and so I got his email address.
Keep well.

Here is a Microsoft Excel file format of the MSB database.
I was not sure you all could use the Open Office version.
So I deleted the last one and uploaded this one.
Sorry about this.
However, you must realize the work of this database is extensive
and laborious.
Nigel knows only too well.
Blessings!

Ladislao, Don, and Nigel, here is the updated MSB Database.
You can retrieve from my Dropbox link below.
I am also attaching a Word document file with the changes that
were made since the last database was uploaded.
Also, my next project is to put all the emails together in (500)
batches to send out the database to see which emails work and which are no
longer valid.
Nigel, I have to find a better way to embed the photos. They keep
jumping all over the place when updates are made. So, I have to attend to that
with your help of remembering what faces go with what name. I will have to
compare my old database with the new one to sort it out myself. So bear with
me.
Send me your kind feedback if you have any to share, which I
believe you do have. Blessings to you all my dear Brothers, continue to take
care......Kaz

Dave,
Please accept my sincere sympathy at the passing of your brother,
Delano.
He has had a long inning, and the good Lord has called him home
now.
Recall his life with fond memories and say only good things about
him.
He should now be rejoicing in the presence of Almighty God, his
destiny having been met.
May his soul rest in peace.
With love.
Nigel
