The 55th Annual Newport St. Patrick’s Day Parade
is fondly dedicated to the memory of:
Kevin Martin Burns

1943-2009

Nature's first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf's a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.

                       -Robert Frost

“May St. Patrick watch over you”
