My day with Sir Howard
JACKIE Charlton Stephenson, daughter of the late Cecil Charlton, former mayor of Mandeville, remembers December 5, 2001 well. That was the day she received a special award from then Governor General Sir Howard Cooke.
As the nation mourned the passing of Sir Howard at age 98, Charlton Stephenson saw it fit to share this photograph with the Jamaica Observer Central of her prized moment with the late former Head of State.
Sir Howard was interred in National Heroes Park last Friday, August 8.
