  • I think he was the member of Parliament for Vieux Fort (North) as I cannot remember him in the polls for Vieux Fort (South). His brother, Bruce Williams stood for Vieux Fort (South) at that time.

  • Everyone is dying right now, I am always blowen away when people freak out over death, you were born to die, from the very first breath you started a journey towards death, so I am not surprised that he died at that old age, old people die all the time, even Governer Generals. It's a gift to the living.
