The 12th Caribbean Hall of Fame Awards honored Sir John Holt at the Pegasus Hotel in Jamaica.
Mr. Garnett Reid, Chairman of the organizing committee of the Caribbean Development for the Arts, Sports and Culture Foundation, said “this was a special case”.
“We were planning to honor him. We regretted that he had been ignored over the years and then he died in the midst of our work. We had to make a decision, and the decision was that we would go ahead and honor him, anyway”.
Other entertainers in receipt that evening ~ Beres Hammond, Rita Marley, Etana, Tarrus Riley, Queen Ifrica, Ronnie Butler, David Rudder and Gem Myers.
