Your assistance in the reclamation of the names yet to be remembered will be greatly appreciated. The University of the West Indies, Marryshow House Centre will be displaying this list in the University Centre as a memorial to the victims of the Island Queen. At a later date we hope to raise funds for a permanent memorial.
