The Patron, Management and members of the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club especially the Bakewell Under-17 and Second Division Teams would like to express profound sympathy to the widow, family and friends of the late Naeem Nasir, Owner of our official team sponsor.
Bakewell and Mr. Nasir have been supporting the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club since 2000 and has been one of the main reasons why the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club is widely the best.
The members of the club are deeply shocked at the passing of a great person whose compassion and love for his fellow human beings was unmatched. His love for youths was evident in his investment in sports, culture and education while as a businessman he was not only successful but very visionary. The Rose Hall Town Bakewell Teams over the last two months had won the Berbice Under-17 and Second Division Cricket Titles and had dedicated the victories to Mr. Nasir not knowing that he would not be too long with us.
The Club salutes our beloved friend and pledge in his memory to uphold our high standard. Guyana has surely lost one of its greatest sons and as a nation we are poorer with his death.
Hilbert Foster said in the release, “On a personal note, I would like to express my sympathy to his wife and staff especially our close friend, Mr. Rajin Ganga. Mr. Nasir over the years has been a source of advice to me in my capacity as Secretary/CEO of the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club and despite his success as a businessman I have always found him to be a humble and very simple man. There is an old saying that great men do not live long and it has proven true with Mr. Nasir. He would be forever remembered by all of us at the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports club for his love, kindness and support and the club would pay its own tribute to him in a permanent way.”
“May his soul rest in peace. Farewell Mr. Nasir we shall all miss you.”
