Hi Miranda,

The last time I stayed with Miss Gloria was in 1987 and then due to career and family didn't get back to Jamaica until 1999 so there was a pretty big gap there. When I visited Barry in 99 I sadly learned of Miss G's passing. I must say that in all the times I stayed with her she never had a cross word with me. I gave her the respect that she deserved and got the same in return. I remember Carl, Howard and Maureen and of course Barry. Miss G had a boyfriend (Mr. Pat) who drove a white Cooper automobile. There were certainly times of odd drama thrown in usually a visitor that got too high or was outright crazy to begin with that did something stupid. But so is the case everywhere. The island is truly magical and has it's own magnetic forces that keeps drawing you back for more.
