Scores of persons gathered today at the Kencott Seventh-day Adventist Church to pay their last respect to the slain church member and deputy security chief at the Jamaica Postal Service, 44-year-old Barrington Davis.

Brother of the deceased, Alrick Davis who delivered the eulogy, said Davis had blossomed on the job at the Postal Service, but did not live long enough to enjoy his success.

Barrington Davis and a female companion, 53-year-old Patricia Lurmot-Barnswell were abducted from his St Johns Heights Home in St Catherine on August 29.

The bodies of the two were found about two weeks later in a cane field in Innswood St Catherine.
