THE PNM is mourning the death of former temporary senator Garvin Simonette, son of the party’s first general secretary and senator Nicholas Simonette and Hummingbird Medal Silver (2011) recipient, Irma "Mother Ipyana" Simonette, both deceased.

Simonette died on December 2 after health complications.

“Born into a family of strong activism and social consciousness, it was no surprise that Garvin’s life would eventually lead him along the path of politics,” a PNM media release said.
