I dont know the gentleman, but I have seen the parade. If he started the parade, thats a big accomplishment.
My condolences to his family.

He was the Founder and main organiser of the parade in 1990 in Richmond Hill. The first parade was about 300 persons and every year since then the numbers grew . Originally Pandit wanted to unite the main Hindu sections of the community especifically the Ayra Samaj and Sanatan followings with other Caribbean Hindus . Unfortunately as the years went by some elements , not in harmony with the original aim tried to hijack the parade from Pandit Ramlall. The matter ended up in court and Ramlall won the case.
