Congratulations to Dawn Da Santos Smith of the GHS Class of 1962

Editor: At this special time of caring and giving, it is good to see that there are individuals who have been quietly and consistently assisting others without fanfare. I speak of the Class of ‘62 of the Girls’ High School, St Vincent and the Grenadines.

Since our reunion in 2002, this group has been assisting GHS sisters to become better educated and make successful strides in the world. They are also very supportive of the accomplishments and achievements of their contemporaries.

Thanks, Class of ‘62 for the lovely reception for classmate H.E. Governor General’s Deputy (Ag.), Dawn Da Santos Smith held at the home of Dr Joyce Toney and Diplomat Joel Toney on December 10, 2019. Happy that I was able to attend and see Class of ‘62 sisters Margaret Allen, Helen Bowman Agard, Joye Browne, Irma Dougan, Ena Gibson John, Monica Huggins, Ercelle John Thomas, Lynette Norris Glasgow, Dawn Da Santos Smith, and GHS sisters Louise Allen, Joyce Providence Toney and Arlene Deare Kirton.

Her Excellency, Dawn Da Santos Smith, has remained the steady person that we have always known. We also wish another Girls’ High School sister Her Excellency, Susan Dougan, all the best in her role as Governor General. We love them and wish them all the best.

Thanks and congratulations to persons who willingly serve and make the nation and the world a better place.

Many thanks to the newspapers for publishing the thoughts and ideas of so many  of us in 2019.

Happy holidays and all the best in 2020.

Cheryl Phills King.
