I've reverted your edit because we have still seen no reliable, published sources that report that he has died. The St Lucia News site here, for example, has removed any mention of his death from the site. There have been many hoaxes of deaths of people in the past, so we need to be ultra-cautious about reporting deaths. We require that the information has first been published in a reputable independent source before we publish it here. I can't even find any confirmation on Twitter or Facebook.

PS: Thank you for providing a source, and I hope you understand why we were being cautious. However, the press release seems to state that he died on 13 April, when my understanding was that his date of death was 11 April. Can you clarify? Ghmyrtle (talk) 14:34, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
