Quimby said she did not see her brother who lives nearby and works with her processing chickens, for the remainder of the day. She subsequently received the news that the last of her mother’s children had drowned. “He liked going to the beach and working ground. He worked a piece of ground not far from here,” Quimby said. Prescod’s other relatives and friends in the Greenidges area were also shocked at his death. Grantley Rock, who said he has known the deceased for most of his life also described him as a hardworking individual who had a strong love for the sea. Rock said he was shaken and hurt by his friend’s passing. “I cannot imagine a person who loved the sea that sort of way and then losing it at the sea. It was a little shocking to me but life is like that, you cannot change what has to be,” Rock said. (AH)
