Dear Editor,
I take this opportunity to send my condolences to Max Phelipa’s family and also on behalf of the Haitian footballers living in St. Maarten and elsewhere.
I also take this opportunity to pay a great tribute to a painter, a goalkeeper and a pioneer of football in St. Maarten in the nineties. He is who was able to make known the local and also the international football here on this island and also to bring from Haiti the first division players to promote the competition level.
We have lost a great man; he is gone but we can never forget everything he did in the sport, and again all our sympathies to the family.
Rest in peace.
Joseph Witus Pierre
