is not complete so we can remember deceased OAs in College prayers and publish their obituaries on the OA website.

he Old Pelican Society (OPS) has been well supported this year by an enthusiastic committee
who have helped to encourage fellow OAs to leave a bequest in their will to King's. In February
the OPS met in London to personalise letters to OAs with the legacy literature - Generation
to Generation. After a couple of hours writing the task was complete and letters duly mailed
around the world to OAs celebrating their 65th birthday in 2015. he result of this hard work
was a number of OAs committed to leaving a bequest to King's and boosted the membership
of this loyal Society.
Members of the OPS are welcomed back to King's for a unique insight into school life on
Benefactor's Day (4 May 2016) and also invited to the King's Christmas lunch, being held at
the Cavalry and Guards in London, on Tuesday 8 December, in addition to other committee
organised events such as the Luncheon at Mulberry.
