Trinidad and Tobago Rugby Football Union (TTRFU) President, Leslie Figaro, has extended condolences on behalf of the TTRFU to Rowell Gordon, a TTRFU Youth Development Officer (YDO) and Harvard Club Championship Division rugby team Vice Captain, on the death of his father Roland Gordon.

The elder Gordon, 57, Chief Judge of the Soca Monarch competition, musical director and arranger succumbed to a stroke at the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex on Friday. He was Musical Director of the Amantes de Parranda parang group, as well as the Malick Folk Performing Group. He was also a music facilitator with the Ministry of Education. His sudden illness and subsequent death has shocked the T&T cultural and entertainment fraternity.

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to Rowell and his family. Mr Gordon's contribution to culture and entertainment is significant. His sudden passing will leave a void in the cultural landscape of T&T. Rowell has our support during these difficult times." said Figaro.
