Grenada-born Dt Slinger Francisco, 79, better known as the Mighty Sparrow has been conferred with the Order of the British Empire.

The award was announced in Queen Elizabeth II birthday honours list. The citation said that the award was for services to culture.

Born in Grenada and arguably the most popular calypsonian from the Caribbean, Sparrow has spent most of his life in Trinidad and Tobago. Important periods of his career development were also spent in Guyana.

Sparrow, of Jean and Dinah fame has had bouts of ill health in recent years.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
