I remember Amy and her sister Gertrude when they both used to work in my father's restaurant in St George's. Both of them were beautiful people.
Trudy to you and your family you have my sincere condolences for your loss.

I remember this lovely lady from my childhood days growing up in St. George's. The Darrells lived next door to us (the Swainson and Bascome family) in Samaritan's Lodge. Lots of laughter, sharing and caring - the "old" Bermuda when neighbours were close. And how can anyone forget her delicious fishcakes!

Jeanna, L'Tanya, Gertrude and family I extend my love and deepest sympathy on the passing of your beautiful mother and sister. May God bless you and comfort you.
