GFF expresses condolence to families of football partners
The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) has expressed condolence to the families of two persons on the passing of their loved ones who have made contributions to the football fraternity in various capacities.
George Humphrey
Winston Callender
Winston Callender, former national player and Vice President of the GFF, and George Humphrey of Humphrey’s Bakery and Farm Products Company Ltd., a contributor to national teams and GFF’s projects, have passed within the past days.
In a letter to the family of Callender, GFF President Wayne Forde expressed gratitude for his service: “We are very grateful for Mr. Callender’s service to the game as a national player and later in an administrative capacity up to 2008 as a Vice President on the GFF Executive. His place in the annals of local football is assured. We hope that this message may, in some small way, be a source of support and comfort to bereaved relatives and friends.”
Meanwhile, Forde recognised Humphrey’s contribution to football: “Mr. Humphrey made an invaluable contribution to football by investing significantly in tournaments through Humphrey’s Bakery and Farm Products Company Ltd. and provided support to many national teams. We would hope that in some way, our words of comfort may bring a little bit of peace and solace in this time of sadness.”
