Given Lascelles Chin’s decades of contributions to nation building, it would have been remiss of Prime Minister Andrew Holness to not be present at yesterday’s thanksgiving service for the life of the 86-year-old businessman and philanthropist.

Holness, whose tribute followed that of Chin’s daughter, Lisa Watts, reflected on how he witnessed Chin changing lives, especially through the LASCO Police Officer of the Year Award, the LASCO Nurse of the Year Award, and the LASCO Teacher of the Year Award.
