Cabinet Minister Derrick Bragg will be laid to rest on Friday at St. Stephen’s Anglican Church in Greenspond.

Bragg passed away on Monday at the age of 59, after a short battle with cancer. His obituary reads:

‘The saying goes “to know him, is to love him”  and that quote summed him up perfectly. When Derrick entered a room it lit up. His smile and his sense of humour endeared him to everyone. He made difficult tasks easier to deal with, his rapport with his public unmatched.‘

A service of remembrance and celebration for Derrick’s life will take place on Friday, January 26, 2024 at 1 p.m. from St. Stephen’s Anglican Church, Greenspond with Bishop John Watton and Rev. Renee Easton officiating.
