SCHOOL CHILDREN were among those paying their respects at St Patrick’s Anglican Church today where the funeral service of Shemar Weekes is being held.

Children from his school Coleridge and Parry, Princess Margaret and Gordon Walters Primary were among those in the church.

In addition to family and friends, other members of the Coleridge and Parry School, including principal Vincent Fergusson, were also among the congregation.

Mourners filed past the body of young Shemar who was wearing a cream-coloured shirt, tie and a boutonniere. Blue was the dominant colour.
