The St. Kitts & Nevis Immigration Department joins the Nation with sorrowful hearts, as we acknowledged the passing of His Excellency the Honorable Vance W. Amory on Saturday 2nd April. He was the second Premier of Nevis and ambassador of this great Federation.

He shall forever be in the hearts of the people of St. Kitts and Nevis and as we continue to treasure the National Monument of the Nevis Airport named in his honor. Be rest assured that people here and those entering by air would never forget the legacy of Vance W. Amory.

From the St. Kitts & Nevis Immigration Department we Salute a Fallen National Hero. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
