Dr. Patrick Lawrence N. Seyon (1938-2020)With a tinge of sadness but infinite gratitude for his life of extraordinary service to education in Liberia, I pause to remember my colleague and friend Patrick L.N. Patrick passed away recently in the State of Massachusetts, USA in the loving care of his wife, Dr. Barbara Greene Seyon. The wound he sustained during the brutal attack on the University of Liberia and his imprisonment was seemingly never healed. Among others, I have heard current Finance Minister Samuel Tweah speak of completing his undergraduate education during Dr. Seyon’s presidency. Seyon of the University of Liberia came to see me at the Mansion on April 19 and handed me a letter for the president.
