Dear Editor,

Not often do we see commendations being given to the Jamaica Information Services (JIS) and so I would like to use your media to express thanks and to commend the JIS for the brilliant footage and social media coverage to celebrate the life of one of Jamaica’s most loved politicians, Roger Clarke.

I am particularly impressed with the video clips titled Laughter with Roger, which captured the many jokes that the former MP and minister of agriculture and fisheries would poke at others and even at himself. One cannot help but say, “here is a man that brought a smile to the face of those whom he interacted with”.

As a Jamaican living overseas, I am constantly trying to keep up with the happenings in Jamaica, and as such I have to log on to the Jamaica Observer and JIS website for some valued information, and I cannot tell you how impressed I am at the way they have given coverage to the work and life of Roger Clarke. I want to say to them job well done, and continue to do the fine job they are both doing.
