The Concerned Citizens Movement has extended their heartfelt condolences to the family, loved ones, and friends of Carmen Lawrence on her passing.
The political party has recognised Lawrence was a pillar of St. Thomas Parish and the island of Nevis and paid their tribute to the senior. She was a distinguished educator who helped in shaping the futures of the children and youth of the country. L
According to the Political Party, her life was spent in service to the people and left an unforgettable mark on generations of students. She started her career in education in 1957 at just sixteen years of age. Starting here, she devoted 38 years of dedicated service to the St. Thomas Primary School.
The Political Party shared a message of condolences and called the elder a consummate professional. She was known to be a strict and disciplined woman among people who knew her. She was also known for her compassion and love for children and her community. Lawrence encouraged her students to aim for excellence throughout their careers.
She was also part of initiatives such as “Excellent Friday” and remained passionate for handicraft. Through these initiatives, she encouraged creativity, discipline, and a commitment to doing one’s best. Her influence continues to live on in the countless lives she touched and the high standards she upheld.
The political party thanked Lawrence for her strong and steadfast support to the Concerned Citizens Movement (CCM). The organisation said that they will always be grateful for her support, her confidence in our movement, and her commitment to the ideals and aspirations we share for our people and our country.
The party extended their deepest sympathies to her family during this difficult time. The message hoped that the grieving family finds comfort in the beautiful legacy that the departed soul has left behind. The Party reiterated that her life of service touched so many.
