How did you locate the Priory website?

Through Robert Joseph when we ran into each other at his wonderful restaurant on Doctor's Cave Beach in Montego

Who were your most memorable teachers?

Tell us about your memories of Priory and Jamaica

Wonderful, fond memories of Henry Fowler and teachers: Pat and Nell Bourke, Marie Gregory, Nora Hernould, Jennifer Hodgson, Julie Webster, Pearline Nicholson and my Aunt Patricia Jackson. It is sad to drive by on Hope Road today and see what has become of Priory!

Mrs. Patricia Jackson

 

Who was the craziest person during your time at Priory?

To be "politically correct" let me just say that there were many colourful characters!

 

Where do you live and what do you do nowadays?

After a eight years in Hotel Management in Jamaica and Canada, I moved on to a rewarding career in car rental where I became City Manager for south-west Ontario with Hertz Rent A Car. After 22 years in that industry I retired and reinvented myself. I am now a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Terrequity in Toronto, and loving every minute of it!
