We are sad to announce that

Alan E. H. Bates

left us on Sunday July 23rd 2023 at the age of 83.

Alan, a Chartered Accountant, came to the Bahamas in 1965 from his native England to join the accounting firm of Price Waterhouse. He loved the Bahamas so much he never left. In due course he went on to establish and build his own successful accounting practice and became one of the earliest members of the Bahamas Institute of Chartered Accountants.

However, Alan’s life was by no means limited to his professional endeavours. He loved the outdoors and was an avid sportsman and enjoyed swimming, skiing, tennis and squash, where in his youth he represented the Bahamas. In later years he liked to play the occasional round of golf and continued to enjoy the beautiful waters of the Bahamas through boating with his family. For many years Alan was a lifetime member of Bahamas Air-Sea Rescue Association and a designated boat captain, participating in a number of rescues.

Alan had a long full life but will be sorely missed by Astrid, his wife of 50 years, his son Nicholas, and daughter Fina, as well as many friends and by his staff at the accounting firm, who regarded him as much more than their boss but also as a mentor and role model.

Alan’s ashes will be scattered at sea in a private family ceremony.

Left to cherish his life is his loving wife Astrid Linea Bates; son Nicholas Bates; daughter Fina Johnson and many other relatives and close friends.

The celebration of life will be announced later on in the year. Date to be determined. Donations can be made in his name at the Bahamas Humane Society or Finas Fosters: venmo:@josefina-johnson-1

Evangelist Dr Patricia Symonette returns to the Bahamas to celebrate 60th birthday with gospel concert

By JEFFARAH GIBSON | Tribune Features Writer jgibson@tribunemedia.net

What better way for a veteran evangelist to celebrate a milestone birthday than with a special praise and worship session/gospel concert?

And that is exactly what

Dr Patricia Symonette is doing.

The former choir director of Ebenezer Mission Baptist Church is returning home after 23 years to celebrate her 60th birthday with “A Night of Praise and Thanksgiving’ concert.

The special event will be held this Sunday at Ebenezer Mission Baptist on Charles Vincent Street.

The concert will feature the Ebenezer Reunion Choir, Bishop Lawrence Rolle, Davian Chase, Shaback, Jenny Bain, Latter Glory Praise Dancers, saxophonist Rev Christopher Smith, and comedian Sharon Seymour. The emcee for the event will be Dr Carolyn Rolle.

Dr Symonette said she could not have thought of a better way to celebrate her birthday on July 31 than by bringing together some of the people sung alongside during her early years.

“As I was thinking about my 60th birthday, I was trying to figure out what ways to mark the occasion. I thought what better way to celebrate than to give God thanks for 60 years. I wanted others to also be a part of it.

I thought why not invite the people that I have been with over the years,” she said.

“The first thing I thought about was the Ebenezer Choir that I directed for over 30 years… so inviting

all of the former members to come back for a reunion choir was key. We did ministry together for so many years. These were the people that really supported me and changed my life.”

The concert, she said, will combine some of the old with the new in terms of the music performed.

“Maybe a lot of the performers for the concert were not around during my time, but I have been working with young people for so many years. One way we do worship is to praise God as a form of dance,” she told Tribune Religion.

While praise and worship are the focus of the event, Dr Symonette said she also wanted to inject some humour into the proceedings.

“I always believe that laughter is good for the soul. Sometimes as church folks we get so serious. And while worship is serious, I love fun and I love laughter, so that will be a part of the celebration,” she said.

Dr Symonette said she looking forward to worshipping with everyone all in one place.

“I am looking forward to seeing friends and family and to the worship experience. I am looking forward to the choir and performing all the songs we haven’t done in years; picking them back up and just remembering all the good times

that we have together. I am looking forward to a singing, shouting, foot-stomping, and hallelujah to the Lord,” she said.

Dr Symonette was born and raised in Nassau. Since childhood, she was active in Ebenezer Baptist, a church founded and led by her father, Bishop Elkin Symonette, Sr.

There, over the years, she served in turns as choir director, Sunday School superintendent, chair of Evangelism, and host of the church radio broadcast, “Channel of Blessings.” She was ordained at Ebenezer in 1995 and is endorsed by the same church to pursue CPE and chaplaincy.

Valedictorian of her 1999 graduating class at Nassau’s Atlantic College and Theological Seminary, Dr Symonette earned a BA degree in Rheology. At Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, she completed her Master’s degree in Counselling in 2003, graduating summa cum laude. She was granted a Master of Divinity equivalency in 2013 by the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education (ACPE) in Atlanta, Georgia. She completed the Doctor of Educational Ministry degree in May 2020 at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia.

In 2003, Dr Symonette also began a seven-year

directorship of Tallahassee’s Bethel Family Counselling and Outreach Centre. She relocated to Atlanta in 2010 to join the Care and Counselling Centre of Georgia (CCCG). Through CCCG, she completed two units of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) at the Metro State Women’s Prison and Northside Hospital. She completed a year’s residency (2011-2012) as chaplain at the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (Egleston Campus).

Serving as CPE administrator in 2013, she concurrently supervised chaplain interns at the Gwinnett Medical Centre. She completed her training

as an ACPE certified educator in 2019.

Since 2014, Patricia has been director of Spiritual Health at the Wellstar Atlanta Medical Centre (Downtown and South Campuses). In 2020, she became Wellstar Health Systems South regional director of Spiritual Health.

Dr Symonette married to an Atlanta native, Bert Gary, with whom she co-pastors at Owl Rock United Methodist Church. Her hobbies include singing, cooking, playing the guitar and travelling while meeting people from varying ethnicities, cultures and backgrounds.
