	ROSIE DOUGLAS
		Douglas' 81-year-old mother said her son jogged in the mornings and, as far as she was aware, was in good health.
		Douglas was the second son of 15 children (six boys and nine girls) of the late politician/agriculturalist, RBD Douglas, and Burnadette Douglas.
		Douglas, the fifth Prime Minister of Dominica, the banana and tourism country of the chain of Windward islands since independence in November 1978, first entered parliament in 1985 as representative for the home-based Portsmouth constituency that was formerly held by his late elder brother, Michael Douglas.

	ROSIE DOUGLAS
		Douglas suffered his first elections defeat in 1990, but was re-elected in a by-election in 1992 in the Portsmouth seat, which was previously held by his brother, after his death.
		Douglas went on to become leader of the DLP a year later, lost the 1995 general elections, and was Opposition Leader in Parliament.
		Douglas, a single father of four children, had been a target of criticism from his political rivals, for the fact that he was not employed in any professional field, an accusation, which he casually brushed aside.

		Rosie was one of those rare leaders the foundation of whose personal philosophy rested in the conscious and unconscious belief that he, as a leader, did not draw his authority from office, but from the people.
		Rosie and our group were resolute in our view that where history, politics and economics divided the people of the region under different colonial rule, the culture, forged as resistance, was a prime vehicle for overcoming that division and disunity, leading to One Caribbean.
		Rosie was on a first name basis, with leaders like Garang in the Sudan, with Charles Taylor of Liberia, with the leadership on both sides in Sierra Leone, the same is true of Gambia, of Nigeria, of Tanzania, of Zambia, and of course, South Africa and Libya.

		Douglas left an indelible mark on the island's landscape, from the attainment of independence in the 1970s, the cultural renaissance in the wake of political independence, the realignment of political forces in the 1980s and 1990s to the ascendancy of the Dominica Labour Party in the year 2000.
		Douglas was the prime architect in mobilizing island wide support for political independence for Dominica between 1976 and 1978.
		It is clear therefore, that Rosie's legacy should not be assessed by his brief tenure in office but by his impact on the political and social landscape of the island.
