97 year old Bequian, Marjorie Ollivierre, shares her memories of old time Christmas in Bequia
Interview with an elderly Bequian, Marjorie Ollivierre, 97 (December 2022). She talks about Christmas past in Bequia, and my grandmother.
Sadly, Marjorie passed away in November 2023. I’m fortunate to have spoken to her many times over the years, and to have experienced such a joyous lady. May she rest in peace.
