We have lost a great son of the soil

Dear Editor,

I learnt with great sadness of the passing of Hon. Sase Narain, Attorney-at-Law and Former Speaker of the National Assembly.

Sase was my friend, my brother and whose advice I sought on many occasions, confident of his wisdom and understanding of the world in which we live.

His interpretation of a miscellany of matters, mostly political and social were always useful.

In our last conversation, several weeks ago, we reminisced, paying attention to what Parliament was, when he presided over that important law making institution.

We have lost a great son of the soil, who mixed with people of every walk of life, gaining their affection and respect.

I miss his candor and his wisdom.

On behalf of my wife, Jennifer and family, I extend condolences to the bereaved family and ask them to take comfort, in the fact, that he served his country with great distinction.

‘He has passed a mountain peak and his soul is soaring in the Firmament of complete and unbound freedom;    He is far, far away, his companions and the clouds are hiding the hills from his eyes. ‘

Farewell my friend, Farewell my brother!

Yours faithfully,

Hamilton Green

Former Prime Minister
