She was the first of seven (7) children born to Walter<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>S. and Eva L. Allen. All of the other siblings were boys, of which three (3) are deceased. She attended the Primary School in the area until the age of<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>ten (10) years old, when their Parents made the decision to relocate to Dias, Hanover in order to be in closer Proximity to other family members. She continued<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>her early education at Riverside Elementary School, before attending Delrose High School in Kingston on a half scholarship. On graduating, she pursued<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>a course in Secretarial duties at the Launceston Commercial College in Sav-la-mar, Westmoreland. She graduated with Certificates in Book-keeping, Shorthand<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>and Typewriting, after which she joined a local Accounting Firm, Blythe and Company, as an indentured Clerk. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>In August 1957, she joined the Government Service as a Grade 2 Clerk in Lucea. It was an entry level job which allowed her to recognize the possibilities<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>for advancement. Upon promotion, she was given the opportunity to transfer to another parish. Although not pleased to leave her 'Home Parish,' the will<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>to expand her Horizons/Career overwhelmed her. In June 1970, she was transferred to the staff of the St. Ann Bay Parish Council as an Acting Senior Accountant.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>This was a Temporary Assignment. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>In February 1971, she was transferred to Morant Bay, where she took over the Accounting Responsibilities for the St. Thomas Parish Council. Her duties<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>included supervision of an Office which dealt with Revenue Collection and Distribution, Budgeting, as well as all facets of Accounting and Book-Keeping<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>etc. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Although she enjoyed her tenure in St. Thomas, a promotion presented itself and she was once again transferred to Spanish Town, where she joined the St.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Catherine Parish Council in June of 1979, as the Accountant and Financial Controller. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Her sojourn with the Government concluded in December 1994, and after thirty-seven (37) years of service, she always expressed gratitude for the training<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>and academics achieved from the University of the West Indies, via the government of Jamaica. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Marjorie's hobbies were few and far between as she devoted most of her spare time to her family. Being the eldest and only female sibling, she had to share<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>in the upbringing, and nurturing of her parents and six (6) brothers. However, she did enjoy reading, gardening, cooking, crocheting, and had a passion<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>for traveling. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>It was on one of her trips to America, she met Lloyd Matthews, and after a whirlwind two (2) year courtship, married Lloyd in December 1995, and migrated<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>to Tampa, Florida. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Marjorie was a very loving, caring and compassionate person, and an ardent church-goer, who believed strongly in her religious faith. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>She leaves behind her husband Lloyd; her stepchildren Norman and Jacquelin; Brothers Kemel, Igol, Colville; Sisters in Law, Beverly and Naomi; and their<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>many nephews, and nieces, cousins, and other extended family members, friends and associates, too numerous to mention. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Aunt Sissy, as she was affectionately called, will be sadly missed by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting her. May she rest in Peace in the arms of<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>the Lord. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>A visitation will be held at Boza & Roel Funeral Home on Wednesday, August 18th, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>A funeral service will be held at St. Clement's Episcopal Church on Thursday, August 19th, at 10:00am<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
