Gwendolyn had a beautiful voice and a wonderful personality. I met her through music and will never forget her.

Dear Colleen and family, I never met Gwen, but many stories of her life were shared with me... I have pictured her doing yoga asanas on 7 mile beach, Negril, Jamaica while Colleen swimming in the Caribbean sea alongside a stingray... Her voice and her drumming will live on in recorded performances... Absolutely captivating... RIP Gwendolyn... And, deepest sympathy to her family and many friends who had the privilege to know her... As we say in Jamaica, ONELOVE, ONE 'Miss Bev' Pratt
