[lac-discuss-en] Loss of Colleague - Roosevelt King - ALS: BANGO in Barbados

[Humberto Carrasco]

This is an awful translation!!

I wanted to say:

Dear all,

I am sorry about the death of our colleague Roosevelt King. I have fond 
memories of the time we spent together in Costa Rica.
At this moment, it does not matter the differences that we had. He was a 
man who passionately defends his ideals and convictions, and what he 
thought was best for the region.
I hope his family can find soon consolation for such a huge loss.

Regards
