Bunny Rugs (William Alexander Anthony Clarke) aka Bunny Scott | 6 Feb 1948 - 2 Feb 2014

Bunny Rugs, OD aka Bunny Scott, was the lead singer of Jamaican reggae band Third World as well as a solo artist. He began his career in the mid-1960s, and was also at one time a member of Inner Circle and half of the duo Bunny & Ricky. Born in Mandeville and raised on John's Lane in Kingston, his father was an Anglican preacher.Clarke explained that his 'Bunny Rugs' nickname came from his grandmother calling him 'Bunny' as a child because he would "jump around the house like a rabbit" and from a member of the Third World road crew calling him 'Rugs' because of his liking for sleeping on the floor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunny_Rugs

In early 2014 he was hospitalized in Orlando, Florida, where he was treated for leukemia.He died on 2 February, 4 days before his 66th birthday. He is survived by his wife and five children. In 2016 it was announced that Clarke would be posthumously awarded the Order of Distinction (Officer Class) by the Jamaican government for his contribution to the country's music. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunny_Rugs
