( L - R ) PAT RAMSAY AND MARK KERR-JARRETT
The following are some of the nominees for the 2005 Gleaner Honour Award, not recipients, as was reported in error yesterday. In addition, Pat Ramsay, one of the nominees, was incorrectly identified on Page A4 of The Gleaner yesterday. The photograph was in fact that of Mrs Jean Casserly, wife of businessman Alvaro Casserly. We apologize for the errors, the inconvenience and the embarrassment caused as a result. Today we repeat the list of nominees published yesterday.
