Sustain Family Dialogue

Posted: family history

My mother was the first person I had ever interviewed for my genealogy research and I didn’t really know how to delve into her past; it was a very private space that she had never shared before. After all, she was born in 1928 during an era where a child didn’t dare ask the questions I required. How on earth was I going overcome such boundaries, how would I get her to open up? I decided that I would just simply, have a conversation with my mother…

Turns out, it was great therapy for her; she was forced to use her memory and her voice; it had only been a few weeks since she her stroke. Today, my mother and I talk about everything and anything. She supports me 100% in Caribbean Ancestry and every day she wants to know, “What’s new, what did you find out today!”

I thank you for letting me share her world; love you mom.

Built in the mid 90s, The Wyndham Sugar Bay hugs a hillside on the northeast corner of St Thomas, and its well named.
Sweet blue water views of St. John and the British Virgins are its greatest asset a Family Travel All Inclusive

Almost all of its 290 comfortable, plantation style, rooms share the magic.

The Sugar bay is NOT a destination for self-absorbed jet-setters, so come as you are.
An easy mix of cultures and generations enjoys the three tiered pool and intimate beach,
and if the mighty stairway from the water is too daunting, a regular shuttle carries you to and from the Towering main lobby.

Dinners are modest, but Breakfasts are ample and fresh.
Design your own omeletand drink in that view.

Need to tone and pamper, head to the work-out room and Spa

Special Kudos to the watchful and friendly Sugar Bay staff

And gold stars to the resident Iguanas who delight and entertain,

and have no idea they look like pre historic monsters.

I had no clue where this story would take me, one never does when interviewing the elders. A genealogical tale could expose you to love, war, blessings and tragedy; the tale of the washer woman exposed me to all that and more.
