I was born and raised on the beautiful Caribbean island of St. Christopher (St. Kitts), known in some places as Sugar City. I graduated from the Basseterre High School in 1970, and got married in 1976. In 1981 my husband, our son and I migrated to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. We have two daughters who were born in the Virgin Islands. Our children have blessed us with four grand-daughters and three grand-sons. I am now retired, after working as a public servant for 19 years.
