From our hearts we sincerely congratulate you Dr. J. Zammit McKeon !!

Fr. Edward Xuereb (on 12/1/09)

Heartiest congratulations, Dr. Zammit McKeon. It’s an honour for our parish of Ghasri, that one of its ‘members’, from whose presence and help she already benefited, is now assuming such a prestigious office high up in his cursus honorum.
Given your experience, you will surely bring in your significant contributions in the administration of justice as you take up this new and very important position in the service of the civil society.
May the Lord, who is Truth and Justice, guide you in searching for the objective facts and in applying to them not simply the law but justice itself.
I’ll make a special intention for you tomorrow during the liturgy of the hours. Congratulations to Anna and the whole family.

I am a past health and safety student, and can only praise the lectures that he delivered to us, with great dedication for the subject. He will deal with the court sittings with the best ability.

The appointment is our honour and privilege - both within the legal circle and Maltese society at large.

Being well prepared from all angles - the moral, accademic and legal aspect.

Always loyal to his clients, colleagues and all forms of authority - foremost amongst which the judiciary.

Strict in all he believes in -an all rounder ... but ultimately also humane.

Another formidable asset to our judiciary.

Dr. Melvyn Mifsud L.L.D.
