By Aaron Humes: The People’s United Party and the Shoman family announce the death of businessman Yasin Shoman, 81, who died on Thursday after battling pancreatic cancer.

Yasin Shoman worked at Bowen and Bowen Limited for many years and also worked as a commercial pilot; he also served as chairman of the Social Security Board (SSB) until his resignation in 2006 amid a brewing scandal.

In a Facebook tribute to her father this morning, his daughter Lisa (Senior Counsel) stated, “Yasin was, until the moment he drew his last breath, a lover of this nation and a proud and devoted member of the PUP… He loved his Party and gave of himself unselfishly and totally.” She also remembered him as a “girl dad” and constant cheerleader and supporter of his children and family – someone “larger than life” to her.

The Party’s official notice thanks Yasin, “a true Son of the Belizean soil, for his life of service to the country, the Party, and the people of Belize and offers its prayers and gratitude to the Shoman Family during this time of bereavement. May the soul of the late Yasin Shoman rest in peace and rise in glory!”
