“It was with deep sadness that I learned of the passing of my former colleague, Mr. Floyd Watkins,” the Rt Hon Hubert Ingraham wrote on learning of the former MP’s death.

“Floyd was a part of our change team in 1992, as he became the Member of Parliament for Delaporte.

“He started his career as a Customs Officer rising up the ranks, before going on to study law. He was a successful attorney. He was also an accomplished building contractor and businessman.

“A focused and determined individual with multi-faceted talents, Floyd wanted to put those talents to service to his fellow countrymen.

“He is now the eleventh FNM MP from that 1992 team, one third of our cohort, to have passed away.

“My wife, Delores, joins me in expressing our sincerest condolences to Floyd’s family and loved ones,” Mr, Ingraham wrote. “May he rest in peace.”
