It was with deepest sadness that I got the note from Gwen Williams that our year-group (67-69)colleague Annette Hunte-Lessey had passed away. I am sharing a note on her passing that I have taken from the newspaper Newsday.

Annette was a warm, mild mannered, engaging person.

I hope that over time she was able over to forgive members of our group, along with second years, for being less than supportive of her when such support would have provided her comfort.

She was an outstanding alumnus of the college, as a teacher, and pillar of the San Fernando community till her passing.

"Remembering Hunte-Lessey

NEWSDAY 3 DAYS AGO

THE EDITOR: Annette Hunte-Lessey, a woman of virtue, worth, and ebullience, will be fondly remembered by many.

Her achievements shattered countless barriers in our history when representations of women were met with many calumnies. Her passing is certainly a great loss to the community of San Fernando.

As a former educator, cultural enthusiast and renowned master of ceremonies, Mrs Hunte-Lessey was indeed divine. She was a woman of faith, strength, and humility.

Therefore we should celebrate her life with deep reverence. My sincerest condolences to her family, friends and colleagues. May she rest in peace.

RE: The Brunch - 1972 - 1974 Year Group

2022-NOV-03-2211Hrs

Yesterday, November 2nd. approximately 60 persons including members of the 1972-74 student body, former lecturers Wafe, Briggs and Greaves, former Burser Percival, members of the 73-75 and 71-73 year groups, and spouses of Mausicans laughed, brunched, sang and enjoyed a good lime at the Woodford Cafe in Chaguanas.

Organized by Thora Best, Carol Weekes- Brown, Dale Scobie, Jasper Joefield and yours truly, the gathering was entertained by the humour of Gary Woo Chong, the music and timely interjection of comedy by Anthony Sanchez, the journeys down memory lane by Mr. Wafe and Ms. Briggs, and letters from Mr. Persaud complaining about the "fowl thieves" from Mayfair Mansion and Fair Haven. There were no letters of complaint from "Pineapple Smith".

What a wonderful time we had. Of course, we used the occasion to put attendees on notice that the MTC Foundation will be coming soon. At that time we expect that all Mausicans will jump at the opportunity to make contributions to the fund. Until then,  all available resources should be used to hoard these contributions....Sou Sou, under the mattress, "your Nennen or Tanty", Savings club, etc., to keep those charitable donations safe until the foundation is fully registered.

Here are some pictures from the occasion.
