SABA--Many on Saba were shocked Tuesday morning to have learned the sad news of the passing away of Francois Antoine “Twonny” Richardson. Richardson was found dead at his home in St. John’s by one of the tenants of his daughter’s apartment complex.

The cause of his death is not yet known, but in the meantime the Prosecutor’s Office has confiscated the body. Members of the Technical Department of the Police Force of St. Maarten flew over on Tuesday afternoon to investigate the matter.
Daughter Jolet Richardson arrived on the island Tuesday morning after hearing of the death of her beloved father.
Funeral arrangements will be made once the body has been handed over to the family. It is expected that the funeral service will take place on St. Maarten.
The late Richardson was 66 years old. He leaves to mourn his children and his many friends on Saba.
