The body of the Barbados Landship Association’s Lord High Admiral Vernon Watson on Wednesday made its final journey to the fabled association’s headquarters, The Dock at Licorish Village, My Lord’s Hill, St Michael.
In a sombre atmosphere, a Landship detachment and drummers accompanied the hearse that carried the casket of Lord High Admiral on a procession from Carrington Village to The Dock where his body lay in state as the community paid their respects to the unofficial “Mayor of Licorish Village” ahead of his funeral on Friday.
