Statement from the President of Cricket West Indies, Dr. the Hon. Kishore Shallow on the Passing of Charles Wilkin, CMG, KC
It is with profound sadness that I learned of the passing of Charles Lucien Arthur Wilkin, CMG, KC, a distinguished Kittitian, lawyer, sportsman and thoughtful servant of Caribbean civilization.
On behalf of Cricket West Indies, I extend deepest condolences to his family, friends and the people of St. Kitts and Nevis.
Charles Wilkin understood that in the Caribbean, cricket is a part of our history, our identity and our understanding of ourselves. He also understood that institutions, like the game itself, must constantly be examined, strengthened and renewed if they are to serve future generations.
