Today, Barbados rose as one to say farewell to our Sir Garry. As his casket passed beneath a salute of raised bats and entered Kensington one final time, the nation gave him its standing ovation. I laid a wreath as Prime Minister, but my heart said goodbye without office, title or protocol. Just Mia, saying farewell to my hero, my mentor and my friend. The world called you the greatest. We were blessed to call you ours. Go well, Sir Garry. Well played. Well lived. Well loved.
