🌺 GUYANA REMEMBERS – REMEMBRANCE DAY 2026 🌺
The Regional Democratic Council (RDC), Region No. 2, joined the nation in solemn observance of Remembrance Day on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at the Anna Regina Town Council. The commemorative service paid tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country, honouring their courage, selflessness and enduring legacy.
The programme commenced with the assembly and arrival of the parade, followed by the arrival of Regional Chairman, Mr. Devin Mohan, and the call to order. Welcome and opening remarks were delivered by Regional Vice Chairman, Mr. Humace Oodit. A poignant moment of remembrance followed as the Last Post was sounded, leading into two minutes of silence in honour of the fallen, before the sounding of the Reveille.
The interfaith service featured prayers from Pastor Mohamed Ally (Christian), Pandit Navindraunath Persaud (Hindu) and Imam Zamel Mohamed (Muslim), reflecting Guyana's rich religious diversity and spirit of unity.
The ceremony continued with the laying of wreaths, followed by the hymn O God Our Help in Ages Past. The feature address was delivered by Regional Chairman, Mr. Devin Mohan, while closing remarks were delivered by Deputy Regional Executive Officer, Mr. Omesh Sasenarayan. The National Anthem was also rendered before the formal proceedings concluded.
Also in attendance were Deputy Mayor, Ms. Lorna FitzAllen; Regional Education Officer, Ms. Shondell Hercules and other regional officials.
Remembrance Day serves as a solemn reminder of the courage, dedication and sacrifices of those who fought in defence of freedom and peace. Their contributions remain an enduring part of our history and a legacy that must never be forgotten.
We remember their courage. We honour their sacrifice. We will never forget.
🌺 LEST WE FORGET. 🌺
