Tony possessed an excellent knowledge of the game even though he was never an accomplished player. He was a Barbadian whose skills spanned radio, television and print. He worked for BBC, Sky and a host of Caribbean networks.
Caribbean and International Cricket is richer for having been blessed with his ability to analyze and describe the particulars of the game. We are deeply saddened by his loss, but feel lucky that we got to know him. Few times in one’s life do you come across a person with such great passion, grace and expertise. We hope that all who knew him will find some comfort in reflecting on their fondest memories of him.
Please accept our deepest and sincerest condolences.

Michael Chambers, President
