Corozal Bay’s Gentle Giant Laid To Rest

And from the grim lessons from the twin brothers deaths, we turn now to the official funeral service which was held for the late David "Dido" Vega in Corozal Town this afternoon.

As we told you, the 47-year-old PUP area rep. died on Friday morning from COVID related respiratory distress; he died minutes before his brother and sister representatives were being sworn in at the National Assembly.

So, he never made ti to Belmopan, but was buried in his home town this afternoon.

Daniel Ortiz took a brief look at the life of the man whose family, friends, colleagues, and supporters called the "Gentle Giant":

David Vega's wife, Ingrid could not attend his funeral as she is also in critical condition due to COVID and has reportedly been intubated.
