Late folklorist and columnist Allan Arthur Fenty was yesterday remembered as a larger than life individual who was always principled.
At a celebration of his life on the tarmac of the National Cultural Centre, his friend Franklin (Bobby) Vieira said Fenty’s command of the English language made people respect him “in every facet of pronouncing words, understanding the daily challenges of life, and even the way he made fun of persons with whom he interacted”.
Vieira recounted that Fenty, who passed away on February 11 at the age of 78 was always mentally prepared to face death and the actual programme of service to celebrate his home going had been prepared by Fenty and left with several close friends two years ago.
