The owner of Mike’s Pharmacy, Lakeram `Mike’ Singh passed away in Florida yesterday while playing cricket.
In a statement last night, the executives and members of the Georgetown Softball Cricket League Inc (GSCL) expressed sadness at the untimely passing of Singh of Mike’s Wellman Softball Cricket Team.
At the time of his death, GSCL said Singh was leading his side in their second preliminary round match of the Florida Cup 2022. He collapsed on the field after bowling his spell.
He was then rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died.
GSCL extended sympathies to the family of Singh, the staff of Mike’s Pharmacy, his former teammates and by extension the entire cricket fraternity on the passing of the softball cricket stalwart.
“Our prayers are with this wife, children, other relatives and many friends at this difficult time”, the GSCL said.
“We have lost a true gentleman who was a fierce competitor on the field. Mikey died while doing what he loved”, it added.
