Residents of Meadow Bank yesterday summoned police ranks to the area after they discovered the body of a well-known man lying on the roadside.
His sister, Evelyn Lewis, subsequently identified the man as 57 year-old Richard Lewis, called Pan Am.
According to persons around the area, the man was seen cleaning fish at approximately 8:30 hours in front of the Greater Georgetown Fisherman’s Cooperative at Meadow Bank. He had collapsed twice then picked himself up and walked to a nearby stand.
A short while later, Lewis was seen lying motionless at the entrance to Meadow Bank. He had apparently tried to leave the location for some destination. An associate said that Lewis was hypertensive.
When this newspaper arrived at the scene Lewis’s body was still there and someone had covered his face with a piece of cardboard. Later, Evelyn Lewis positively identified her brother’s remains at the Lyken’s Funeral Parlour.
She said that the last time she saw him was when he visited her home on the West Coast to collect some items that were brought for him by another sibling who resides overseas. She said she had no idea where he lived.
Richard Lewis is also survived by a son who is a shoemaker.
