Runako Morton played his final innings today.
Family, friends and fans turned out in their numbers to pay tribute to the fallen former West Indies cricketer at a funeral service at the First Church of the Open Bible in San Fernando, Trinidad.
Several prominent cricketers, past and present, were in attendance, including former ex-West Indies captain Brian Lara and West Indies Players Association president Dinanath Ramnarine.
Ramnarine read the eulogy while Lara paid a tribute to Morton, who died last week Sunday following a vehicle accident in central Trinidad.
A second official funeral service will be held by the Nevis Island administration at the Elquemedo Willett Park at Charlestown on Saturday at 1 p.m.
