They, like him, must remember that feeling of pride they felt at the birth of the nation.“I would like to thank you for everything you have done this year. It has been a very important year in Guyanese history and I am sure you all share the joy of Christmas.“Being here is a part of that sharing. Next year we celebrate our 50th anniversary and those like me, who are over 50 would know how it felt 49 years ago and we want to ensure that next year is not just a big party but a time of healing, a time of coming together, a time of sharing… and maybe we can enjoy that second independence.“We had some challenges but we hope that we can overcome those challenges and show what our sons and daughters can be,” President Granger said.First Lady Sandra Granger said that the exercise was to make the seniors feel special since most of them are from Homes across the town.“It’s Christmas,Lazar Markovic Liverpool Jersey, the season of sharing and giving. I think we need to strengthen the habit of honouring our seniors. I think one of the least things we can do at this time of the year is to honour them and since it’s Christmas, share a meal with them.“So that’s the aim of it; pure and simple. To give them a day out of their respective homes, bring them out and have them enjoy a good afternoon, with good food and good music,” Mrs. Granger said.First Lady Sandra Granger with one of the special invitees at today’s Luncheon.The senior citizens came from Uncle Eddie’s Home, Archer’s Home, Dharm Shala, St. Joseph’s Home for the Elderly and the Palms Geriatric Home.
