Tributes yesterday poured in for nationally acclaimed folklorist, poet, broadcast-er, one-time public rela-tions czar of the PNC, and Stabroek News decades-long columnist, Allan Arthur Fenty, who passed away yesterday in his sleep at his South Ruimveldt Gardens home.
He had celebrated his 78th birthday just last month.
Well known for his contribution to the pre-servation of Guyanese cul-ture, such as proverbs and cuisine, Fenty offered weekly satirical and thought provoking analy-ses of this country’s land-scape in his folksy grass-roots column “Frankly Speaking by A.A. Fenty”.
