It read:
\nGood morning colleagues. It is with a heavy heart that I inform you of the untimely
\npassing of Ms. Francille Davis, kindergarten teacher at Five Islands Primary
\nSchool.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I was told of her passing this morning. The principal of the school
\nindicated that Ms. Davis was at work yesterday.<\/p>\n

She was an incredible teacher.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

She was always bubbly and loomed largely at Five Islands Primary School.<\/p>\n

She was always around with a big voice. She assisted the\u00a0 Unit with the
\nsupervision of the G6NA last year.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

We pray for her family, relatives and friends and thank God for her life and her service and pray that her soul will repose in perpetual peace.<\/p>
