MY condolences to the Sawh families (Sash, Julie and Jai) who have lost their loved ones, and to the Robertson family who have lost a dear father, husband and brother. These sons and daughter of Guyana have found a resting place in GOD's great arms!

God looked around his garden
And he found four empty places.
He then looked down upon this earth,
And saw their beautiful faces.

He put his arms around them
And lifted them to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.

He saw that the road was getting rough,
And the hills are hard to climb
So he closed their weary eyelids,
And whispered “Peace be thine.”

It broke our hearts to lose them
But they didn’t go alone
For part of us went with them
The day God called them home.

May god grant you eternal peace, my thought & prayers be with your family at this time of thiis horrific tragedy.

Wishing God's Comfort for the Sawh and Robertson families. It's difficult at such a time to know what words to say, but may God be with each of you always, to sustain you day by day.

It is with real shock that I heard of the brutal slaying at LBI. Deepest condolences to the Sawh and Robertson families. Firm action must be taken against the perpetrators of mayhem and madness. Failure to act now in the face of such blatant subversion will be considered a sign of weakness and worse may follow. It is the long-term interests of all Guyanese which are of stake.

On behalf of the Boodhram family we would like to extend our Sincere Sympathy to the Realtives of Mr Robertson, May God guide and protect the rest of the Family.
Mr. & Mrs. Winston Boodhram

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know

But know we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you'll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll stay

Sorry for your lost

Radha (Toronto, Ontario)

Having known Mr. Sawh from IETC during the late '60's and, he, being in the same cricket team with my husband, Stephen King, in Toronto, where we had the privilege of meeting again and again, it is even more sad to see such a sincere and quiet friend depart this world at such an early age. Our deepest sympathy goes out to both the Sawh's as well as the Robertson's families - I cannot imagine the pain in their hearts today.

at the end
of the road
he sits
waiting

he is patient confident
we will reach him
or he
us

each day
one day less
then he rescues us
and says...

I've been waiting
since you were born.

Sincere condolences to the Sawh family. Mr. Sawh was a true leader and a decent human being. - AJ

What a way for a true son of Guyana's soil to depart from us with so much unfinished business - He must be colaborating with God to complete what he's left behind. Our love and prayers are with rest of the family. Note: Cowards that crawls from under rocks, dies thousands of deaths. You will live to see it. God's guidance always.

My deepest sympaties to the families of this TERRIBLE tragedy. It is indeed a sad day for all of us here in the US to hear of such an abominable act carried out on a minister who was trying to make a difference in the politics of Guyana.

On behalf of myself and family, we would like to offer our profound condolences to Sattie, Roger and Dave and the entire Sawh family, as well as the Robertson family.

Sat was a noble, honest, sincere, dedicated and loving person. In the many years we have known him he has never been afraid to uphold the principles to which he was appointed to serve his country. To be cut off in the prime of his life is indeed a tragedy to his family and country. His loss will be felt for generations to come, but hopefully it will further the cause for which he fought for and that is for a better Guyana. May his family find solace in the knowledge that we all share their loss and may they be granted strength and determination to continue his good cause.

We mourn the loss of a good and loyal family friend. Our prayers are with the entire family.

Wilfred + Elsbeth Baldeo and family - England

This was so shocking and it all happened so fast, so many deaths in one family, and so much loss and heartache. It is almost too much for one family to bear, so we all join in helping them through this terrible time.

He was greatly loved by family, friends and acquaintainces. He was a deep family man. Sincerest condolences to his wife, Sattie, children and other relatives.

Sash Sawh's name will be entered in the history books, alongside the others who were martyred in Guyana. His name will never be forgotten. He served his country well. Rest in peace, dear noble Minister Sash Sawh.

Deepest condolences also to the families of Raj and Phulmattie. May God grant them the courage to carry on.

With love,

My Condolences to the Sawh Family. Birla Ram and Family from Novar

My family and I would like to take this sad moment to convey our deepest heartfelt, condolences and sympathy to the Shaw and Robertson grieving families, also I sincerely wish all those who sustained injuries a speedy recovery. I think this is high time the President of Guyana should seek foreign military intervention to immediately stamp out this murderous act of brutality and corrupt malpractice that is stalking Guyana. Its now or never.

Heartfelt condolences to the Sawh family, whom I have known personally for the past 16 years.

The news was indeed shocking and unbelievable. May God comfort the grieving families and may heaven open its doors freely to Roy, Sat, and Julie.

Roy and I developed a relationship since 1990 and even though I emigrated to New York, we continued our frienship. He has always been a father to my daughter Ronda, and a support to me in all my endeavors.

Roy wore a smile that lit up the universe wherever he went. He possessed a heart of gold, and nothing was beyond his reach. Because of his positive attitude and outlook on life, together with his pleasant demeanor, he conquered the obstacles and challenges of his life victoriously, and for that I am very proud of him. Likewise, no one was too small for him to help. He always saw the best in people, and had the best advise to give, especially to the teenagers in his family circle and at his job.

Unfortunately, Roy's passing coincided with my grandaughter Sophya's birthday. The day was grey for us and we had wondered why, but not until the next morning did we hear the dreadful and shocking news. On a comforting note, on April 27, we believe Roy visited us. Out of the blues, my grandaughter started calling my daughter "sweetie", a pet name that Roy used to call her. We're comforted and blessed that Roy's presence in our home was felt, and we thank the Almighty for that blessing.

Ronda and myself will miss Roy terribly. Although physical visits between us will no longer be possible, we know in our hearts that Roy is up with Jesus and smiling down on us, with that contagious smile which we remember so well.

Someday we'll meet-up again, Roy. Until then, keep watching over us while we remember all the good times and jokes we shared.

Love always,

Bernie, Ronda, and Sophya - Bernadette Chowthi

My deepest condelences to the Sawh family on his tragic death. I accompany you in this time of grief.

Godfrey and me was most upset at this latest round of violence in Guyana. When I left Guyana in 1973 it was a very peaceful place. I don't know what happen to this country.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mrs Sawh and Mrs Robertson and the children.

Godfrey Griffith and Megan Edwards

Our hopes and dreams are futile, only His desires are law. Yet we always aspire cause that's how we live. Condolences to the Sawh and to the guard family as well.

May Allah shower His blessings on both families. Peace
