Minister of Energy, Transport and Telecommunications, Hon. Daryl Vaz, has extended sincere condolences on behalf of the Government to the family of the father and daughter who tragically lost their lives in a plane crash in Florida on Monday (November 10).

Speaking during a press conference at Jamaica House on Tuesday (November 11), Minister Vaz stated that, based on confirmed reports, Alexander Wurm and his daughter, Serena, were tragically lost in the accident.

He said the deceased was known for his unwavering kindness and lifelong commitment to serving others.

“He had been providing aid to Jamaica since the relief efforts began. My understanding is that he resides in Cayman, is well known by the Jamaican community in Cayman and has always been one who gives and gives and gives,” the Minister noted.

Mr. Vaz said the Government’s thoughts, prayers, and heartfelt condolences are with the bereaved family and friends during this time of profound grief and loss.
