X,

Read your article in Tuesday’s Amandala. FYI – my father was one of the promoters who brought Muhammad Ali to Belize. I have enclosed a copy of a framed photo I keep at home. There are many in the photo you will recognize.

Front row right: Net Vasquez and Dean Lindo. Behind Dean Lindo is my father’s chauffeur for decades, Joe Carillo. I think right row is the Hunter boys. I am up front left with my housekeeper.
