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”
