    Describe her - was she once the Principal at Port Antonio Secondary in Boundbrook.

    If that is her, then I was acquainted with her during my days with the Portland Cultural Development Committee.

      Yes that was her. She was very involved until her very last days with Jamaican culture and mentored kids after retiring.

      Always smiling. I didn't know her in Jamaica but was introduced to her here in the states. She told me of the things she did as Principal of Port Antonio Sec, now Port Antonio High.

        Thanks Sass. Didn't know she was in the States, until last year. When I left Jam. she was still at the school, and our paths never crossed again.

        Thanks for the info.

          We had a group called JAMCCAR in Rockland county. I use to organise Soccer and some outreach and she was very active helping with music and provided assistance to any kid who needed it.

          She was a very good person and danced all the way to her grave.

          RIP Freda
