TTARP’s Eastern Angels Arima Zone (EAAZ) honored
the Mothers and Fathers with a Tea Party Function on
Sunday 4th June 2017, with ninety members and friends in

the Prayer.

entertainment with his rendition of
“Because he lives”
, and
Justin Subran sang
“The way we used to be”

“Ah can’t
believe am losing you”

monologue about a man shopping at Hi Lo after
which Lynette Maule hosted the modeling segment
commentating on the attire of the models - Gloria Morris,

George and Lynette Brewster.
Perry Shade serenaded the mothers as he walked among

Way You Are” and “The Green Grass Of Home”.
The fathers were courted by Lisa Foster to the songs of
“To God Be the Glory”, “You Raise Me Up” and “I Will
Always Love You”
while Allison Johnsons-Parks took time
to hug and kiss them.
The door prize winners were Hazel Sheppard, Ann
Marie Kerr, Ronald Orr and Selma
Chevalier.
Tea was served and DJ Claud
“Maxeffeck” Bernard filled the air with
romantic music of years gone.
Bernadine Cummings was awarded
