Having spent a week in hospital, Anthony Williams was discharged on Wednesday and returned to his home at Nepaul Street, St James, on Thursday.
The 83-year-old veteran pan inventor, composer, tuner, arranger and founder of the defunct Pan Am North Stars fell at his home on October 17 and was admitted to the St James Infirmary. He was subsequently transferred to the Port-of-Spain General Hospital for tests and was eventually given a clean bill of health by doctors.
Williams has been suffering from diabetes and hypertension.
Pan Trinbago Tuners Guild president Fitzroy “Popo” Henry said yesterday: “Tony has been having seizures. He fell and struck his head and was rushed to the infirmary.
While at the hospital afterwards he was given the best of care and his doctors deemed him well enough to be discharged.”
Among a number of inventions and innovations, Williams is credited with inventing the spiderweb pan. (PRB)
