BARBADOS’ OLDEST MAN James Sisnett, 110,  now has a bus shelter named in his honour.
Chairman of the 180th anniversary bus shelter committee of St Luke’s Anglican Church, Livingston Carter, said they arranged for the launch because Sisnett had made a significant contribution to the area and they wanted to honour him before he died.
He was the guest of honour earlier today at the launch of the shelter in Mount Hill, St George.
Sisnett, he says he feels “felt good” about the honour.
