West End burial ground gets a post-Irma clean-up
On Saturday, November 11, 2017, Mr MacDonald Smith and his crew worked tirelessly to clean-up the burial grounds in West End.
Honourable Andrew A. Fahie, Leader of the Opposition and First District Representative, commended Mr Smith and his crew for assisting in the restoration efforts.
"He lost his wife but he did not lose his community spirit. He did not lose his love for people nor his love for God," expressed Hon Fahie.
The burial ground was damaged by Hurricane Irma and was in a dreadful condition.
The First District Representative stated that Mr Smith requested chainsaw and food and "they will do the rest."
"This is true First District community spirit. This is true BVI pride, giving a helping hand even when he needs one," emphasised the opposition leader.
Mr Smith is "kind, selfless & hardworking"
In an invited comment from a few members of the First District community, one lady stated that Mr MacDonald 'Mac' Smith is a very "kind, selfless and hardworking" man.
Barry P. Lewis commented that Mr Smith is a "fighter and always willing to help anyone."
"This man always helping somebody to do something, even if it small. He's a people person," said Mr Lewis.
