PLASKETT EXPRESSES CONDOLENCES ON THE PASSING OF BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS’ FORMER HEALTH MINISTER, CARVIN MALONE

Washington, DC – Congresswoman Plaskett released the following statement expressing condolences on the passing of the British Virgin Islands’ (BVI) former Health and Social Development Minister, Carvin Malone:

“I was very saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Mr. Malone. He was a stalwart in the local BVI community who provided tremendous leadership over numerous decades. Mr. Malone served as the leader of the territory’s Health and Social Development agency during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and left an excellent legacy of commitment, integrity and political savvy, especially with his tenure as the President of the BVI’s Virgin Islands Party for more than 15 years. 

“Virgin Islanders on the U.S. side send condolences to our brothers and sisters in the BVI on Mr. Malone’s passing, and I send my prayers for comfort and peace to his loved ones, family and friends.”
