It is with great sorrow on behalf of my wife Berlice and I, on the passing of the late Mr. Paul Farquharson. Please know that the entire Free National Movement (FNM) joins you in grieving the loss of a remarkable individual who left an indelible mark on the nation he served with dedication and distinction.
As an aspiring police officer, Mr. Farquharson displayed a unique commitment to personal growth and self-improvement. This decision shaped the trajectory of his career and paved the way for his remarkable rise through the ranks of the Police Force.
His service as aide-de-camp to prominent figures like His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, and His Grace, the Most Reverend and Rt. Honorable Dr. Robert Runcie exemplifies the trust and confidence placed in his capabilities. Mr. Farquharson’s dedication to community engagement highlighted his commitment to building bridges between residents and law enforcement, fostering a safer and more connected society.
Beyond his role as a distinguished law enforcement officer, Mr. Farquharson was a devoted family man and an active member of various charitable organizations. His compassionate nature was evident in his efforts to help the underprivileged and his active involvement in the Anglican Church’s Men’s Organization, the Salvation Army, The Bahamas Humane Society, and The Bahamas Plays and Films Control Board.
To his wife Sharon Farquharson nee Major his children; Paul Jr., Vonnette and Audril as you mourn the loss of a beloved husband, father, and cherished family member, please find solace in the knowledge that Mr. Farquharson’s legacy will forever be etched in the annals of Bahamian history. His contributions have left an enduring impact on the lives of countless individuals, and his dedication to serving his country and community shall continue to inspire generations to come.
With sincerest condolences,
Michael Pintard
Leader, Free National Movement
