Dear Editor,
A recent letter suggested planting a tree to replace the dying Conversation Tree in commemoration of Mr Charles P Kennard. This is an excellent suggestion, as Mr Kennard was one of the most respected and honourable individuals operating in the sector at the time. His death was a tremendous blow to family and friends alike.
As a relative “youngster” at the time, the praise and acclaim that constituted the better part of his eulogy seemed almost insufficient to properly express the magnitude of his contribution to Guyana.. Any effort to venerate this distinguished son of the soil should be met with full support.
Yours faithfully,
Scheherazade Ishoof-Khan
