Memories of Miss Lou
The Rt. Honourable
Couldn't think of what else to send for you Miss Lou!
Happy Birthday Miss Lou
I was talking with some friends and they all wanted to remember something special about you.
The Next National Hero of Jamaica
I am not sure why you are not a National Hero yet, Maybe soon, I tell them to go to see why she should be honoured!
Had lunch ("Oxtail") with "Miss Lou" / "Bibsi" - May 2005 in Toronto - "Mas Eric" was already gone to "Shut-eye Country". I spoke with her to tell her of the passing of a friend. We sang
"I know where I am going...
I know... Joy bells are ringing...".
"Miss Lou" dies two days after (I) sang that song to her. "MISS LOU" - what a BOONOONOUSS WOMAN she is.

It doesn't matter whether you are a child or an adult it's all the same! You are the spirit of our nation! 2 things. The flyer of the save the date and ten Prof Opal speaking about her in a video interview.
FROM GABRIELLE
Miss Lou, you are such a role model and so independent. You put Jamaican on a de map.
"Independence is we nature
Born and bred in all we do,
An she glad fe see dat govament
Tun independent to". [Independence]
Miss Lou, a rememba you.
Just like you said in “Rollin’ calf”
“It is a long story mi chile,
Me really keean tap now ”
I used to recite your poems when growing up.
You make me feel so joyful and full of life.
“An mi mouth start sympat’ise wid her
An tell her sey she right
But hear mi heart, tengad fe me
Belly gwine bus tonight.” [Roas Turkey]
