Prime Minister Andrew Holness
This morning, many Jamaicans, including myself, were overcome with grief upon hearing the news of the demise of Francois St. Juste, a well-known radio and media personality who was cherished by many and held in high esteem. Francois brought joy to every environment he entered and was an extremely lovable person.
Mark Golding, Leader of the Opposition in the United Kingdom
The news of the loss of legendary broadcaster and radio personality Francois St. Juste has left JA feeling devastated. Listening to Francois on Fame FM, with the humour and joy he brought to the airwaves, was always something I looked forward to doing. He left an indelible impression on Jamaica’s media, and we are grateful that he was given the opportunity to live. Walk Good!
Olivia Grange is the Minister for Culture, Gender Equality, and Entertainment and Sport.
In no uncertain terms, Francois St. Juste rose to prominence in the field of radio broadcasting in Jamaica, becoming a well-known name among listeners located all across the island. We can’t help but think back to the beginning of FM radio in Jamaica, when Francois was one of the announcers who helped place FAME FM on the map. Not only did he carry out the duties that were expected of him, but he was also accountable for the education of others. The versatility of Francois was further illustrated when he took on a position in management later in his career. The booming voice of an experienced presenter behind the microphone is no longer audible, but the echoes it left in our memory will continue to reverberate for a significant amount of time.
Floyd Green is now serving as the Minister Without Portfolio in the Prime Minister’s Office.
What an absolutely magnificent specimen of the human race. Sincere sympathies to his family and friends on their recent loss. Francois St. Juste, may you finally rest in peace.
