I can't think of anyone I have known all my life on this planet, apart from my immediate family.
Apart from the Ramsay's.
Sybil youngest son Hon. Peter Davis, starts the proceedings. |
They lived in Middle Quarters, nextdoor to my grandparents, so everytime I visited my grandmother, I saw them.
Second son Robert, with CamaraSybil, or rather Dr. Sybil Davis, who turned 93 years old this week, is only one of three surviving members of the children of that family, so I was honored to be able to celebrate the milestone with her.

She has been consistently celebrating her birthday every year, (since I moved to Florida) but this year she declared it would be the last.
Hope it isn't, as I always look forward to the get together.
My cousin Barry, serenading the birthday girl |
Her brother, the late Father Ken Ramsay, had been one of my closest friends in Jamaica for decades, but he died during Thanksgiving weekend, about 4 years ago.
Always missing him.
Apart from being a priest, he was an accomplished water color artist, and I am happy Sybil gave me this painting from his collection, as it cements my memory of him.
