I learned this evening with great sadness of the
death of my very good friend and benefactor Kenneth Perigord. Words
cannot express the sorrow that I feel over his passing.
He
was simply a good person. He helped whenever he could. He came to the
rescue always. He was selfless and cared deeply about The Bahamas, his
children, his friends and the civic life of The Bahamas. I admired his
pioneering spirit in business and his contribution to The Bahamas
Petroleum Dealers Association.
Every year at
Christmas he contributed a Christmas tree from his Christmas Tree farm
and business to the Fox Hill Community. He was a great supporter of the
Valley Boys. There was nothing that was too big or small to ask him to
do which did not yield a positive response.
I am grateful to have known him. He was a great Bahamian.
May he rest in peace.
