He died on May 14 after being ill for some time.
Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh said in a WhatsApp response to Newsday that the ministry was extremely saddened by his passing.
“Ronald was a major figure in the development of the healthcare sector. His experience and leadership spanned decades across both islands.
“I was personally grateful that he lived to see the fulfilment of his dream of the Sangre Grande Hospital Campus project which was recently completed. We, who work in the health sector, will miss his leadership, compassion and presence,” he said.
Some other members of the medical fraternity reacted to Tsoi-A-Fatt’s passing.
