My beloved friend of decades - I feel it for Linda and the children.

That was way too sudden.

That said I was speaking with a very close friend of his and we agreed that Dwight had a great life. It is the speed with which his body crashed yesterday - looks like a major embolism.

It really is a pity that Sir Dwight
was unable to fully enjoy his retirement . The last time I saw him
he was in SVG to attend the funeral of
his Aunt . This was about 12 years ago .

Due to his Stewardship as the Governor of the Eastern Caribbean Countries Bank . He was awarded many
Accolades in the Region ,for his excellent work .

May he Rest in Peace and his wife &
children find solace & comfort in their fond remembrances of him .

My one disappointment was that title and he knew it. He was a good friend.

I think that it would have been bad
form if he had chosen to refuse it .
I am very sure that getting a Knighthood changed him or his demeanor.

His Aunt was a very good friend of my
parents , and as I result I went to
her Funeral , to represent them , and
knew that he would also be there .
