The two houses of Jamaica's Parliament held a special joint sitting last week Tuesday to honor former Prime Minister Edward Seaga, a major player in national politics for decades and the only survivor of the leaders who drafted the constitution when the Caribbean island gained independence from Britain in 1962.

Seaga attended the session of tributes at Gordon House, the home of the legislature. The 82-year-old often appears at public events in Jamaica. A respected authority on local culture and a former record company owner, he's even putting out a four-CD box set of Jamaican music later this month.
