A motion is before the Sangre Grande Regional Corporation (SGRC) to have the Toco Recreation Ground renamed in honour of former SGRC chairman Martin “Terry” Rondon.
The long-standing former Toco councillor suffered a heart attack after returning home from physical therapy on Tuesday.
Rondon, 74, had been ailing for some time after having surgery.
Current SGRC chairman Kenwyn Phillip said the corporation plans to honour Rondon in several ways ahead of his funeral next Wednesday at 11 am at the St Charles RC Church in Tunapuna.
“On Monday, we will be having a motorcade with a candlelight vigil. We’re trying to do the motorcade from Matelot, and we will stop at Toco for a viewing because that’s where he is from. We are then hoping to bring the body to the SGRC’s headquarters for another viewing and we will have the vigil there.”
He said the vigil will be “like a wake” and will be celebratory with some live entertainment. Read More
