The passing of Colin Rickards – A Caribana Stalwart

If I had to pick someone to write the History of Caribana: Colin would have been my choice. He was very knowledgeable about the organization, because as a member, he knew the organization and the players’ very well. His articles were very honest and to the point. Many people were sometimes critical about some articles, but Colin was always able to back up his opinions with facts. Facts he garnered as a professional journalist using his research skills.

Colin will be truly missed, not just by the Camera, but by the Caribana organization, because of the many positive articles he wrote about Caribana. He wanted Caribana to survive and many of his articles showed how he felt during the darkest hours of the organization. It would not be easy to replace this Caribana stalwart.
