    May the great man rest in piece.... still revered worldwide as an icon of track and a giant among men.

      Had interaction with Herb starting from 1961 (or, was it 1962) at *Western Champs held on Mannings High school grounds. That interaction with Herb continued until the last time we sat and spoke, of at all places in the JFF offices, about 2 years ago.

      Found him to be quite pleasant.
      May his soul rest in peace!

        Sad news.

        Our history and glory are encapsulated in such people.

          A true Jamaican Champion

          The original and founding father of our great track and field history.

          As a KC man during his Calabar coaching days you had nothing but nuff respect for him.

          Rest in Peace

            a true champion. A trooper and a gentleman.

            words can't say enough, sad to see him go.
