The Voice Publishing Company Limited regrets to announce the passing of a former Managing Director of the Company.
Mr. Lyndell Gordon
Mr. Lyndell Gordon, the elder son of Sir Garnet Gordon, had been seriously ill for the last two months and, on February 11, 2021, he answered the call that none of us can resist.
Lyndell was, by profession, a civil engineer and many of the structures in and around St. Lucia bear his stamp, albeit much of his work lay below ground.
Lyndell is survived by his two sons Iain and Sean who both now live in Canada.
