As the first black Speaker of the House of Assembly, Speaker Lowe, though very cognizant of Bermuda's history of institutionalized racism, never sacrificed the principles of parliamentary democracy for political expediency. For the many years he served as Speaker, he remained truthful to the principles of fairness, impartiality, and respect for all Members of Parliament. Combined with his humility, the adjudication of these principles not only earned him the respect of his Parliamentary Colleagues but also of the wider Bermudian community.
My husband, Professor W. Roy Wright joins me in sending heartfelt condolences to his family and friends and pray that we all will have learnt something from his time with us.
