An official book of condolence will be available for signing in tribute to Gilbert Darrell today and on Monday at the Cabinet Office.

The former MP and cofounder of the National Liberal Party died last week. He was 95.

David Burt, the Premier, offered condolences to Mr Darrell’s family and friends.

Mr Burt added: “The people of Bermuda owe a debt of gratitude to Mr Darrell who served his country with determination, dedication and conviction.”

The public can call on the building from 10am to 4pm to sign in the book.
