THE LATE Prime Minister David Thompson was a friend and mentor to many, including Dominica’s Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit, who is the youngest Head of State in the region.
Skerrit was in Barbados this week to deliver the inaugural David Thompson Memorial Lecture, which looked at the Future of CARICOM.
In addition to hearing the wide-ranging lecture, patrons also got an opportunity to view an Exhibition of Photographs, which was set up on the terrace of the Errol Barrow Centre for Creative Imagination at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill, Campus.
Here, Thompson’s widow Mara and Skerrit as they viewed the exhibits. (YB)
