Oliver Lord Radio Brome, on his final exit from life’s stage yesterday, was saluted as a singer, composer, entertainer and businessman, the latter being “the most striking part” of his career.

The tribute came from Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office with responsibility for Culture John King before a small congregation of mourners at St Peter’s Parish Church.

King, a former entertainer himself, was high in praise for the late icon of entertainment in the tourism sector.

“On his way to doing it, he also took the opportunity to bring various persons underneath his wings and give them the  opportunity to be what they wanted to be,” he said. (GC)
