    Thanks for posting your memoir.

    Let us hope that Jamaica does not see the likes of anything close to Gilbert again for many years to come (better yet, never again!)

    Thanks for sharing your experience, Rob. I agree with Yoooper, very well written.

    Ivan was a big rain producer, lots of water damage. But we had a/c and the satellite dish working at Sunshine Plaza in a couple days.

    Been here for every hurricane since Gilbert and none have been remotely close to Gilbert.

    Gilbert destroyed the original round house on Zion Hill and darn near killed Linston and the family.

    I was at sea and all I could do was watch the weather fax and pray. I had no news for two weeks
