My condolences to the family and close friends of a fellow soldier, great athlete, extremely special, down to earth, fun loving and kind St. Michael’s girl and all round nice person. You were always nice and encouraging to the younger students. It seems that having not seen you for so many years, suddenly we were all happy to see your photos at Christmas and now we are saying goodbye. RIP beautiful soul Presteen, and may you rise in glory. Nisi Auxilio Dei Nihil.
There are some teachers you cant even remember their names and some you will never ever forget. The girls of St. Michael’s Girls’ School from the 70’s will never forget you.
Rise in glory, Presteen. (we loved calling her by her first name when she was not in earshot!)
Saddened to learn of the passing of Presteen. Haven’t seen her since leaving SMGS, but will always remember her ability to make everyone laugh, her athleticism and as our only hope to win a medal at Interschool Sports “back in the day”. May her Soul Have Eternal Rest.
Condolences to the family. May she rest in peace. I will never forget that name. Presteen left a lasting impression on my memory. I first met her when I entered SMGS. Though much older, she was always pleasant and welcoming to younger students.
My best times ever was attendung achool sports and watching Presteen and Janet Stoute compete against each other and Queens college. It was awesome, Gone but remembered fondly . R.i..P
My heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the Sobers and Elliot families. I remember her as a school colleague at The St. Michael’s Girls’ School in Barbados. She was an excellent athlete and a beautiful person who always wore a smile. We have not seen each other since school days, but I will always remember her beautiful personality. May she Rest In Peace and rise in glory. Grace Hackett, Ph.D.
Sincere condolences to Lynette and family. Presteen and l were sisters from a different mother. We lived in the same neighbourhood and she always made sure that l was looked after at school – Westbury Junior. We were born on the same date, one year apart. She was a wonderfully joyous person and she blazed a trail in all that she did. I am thankful that l had the privilege of knowing her.
May she rest in peace and may God comfort her family at this time of sorrow.
My condolences to Presteen family. Bi have not seen her since school days at SMGS but remember her fondly. Love to the family
