The annual Christmas morning concert in Queen’s Park is an age-old tradition.
Anesta Devonish has become part of that tradition.
The Canewood, St Thomas resident who was 100 years last May has been going to Queen’s Park for many years, taking up the same position beside the bandstand every year to listen to and applaud her favourite musicians.
She was there again Friday, and her face lit up whenever she heard a song she liked.
Here, some members of the Royal Barbados Police Force Band stop to greet their oldest fan at the end of the two-hour concert.
Standing behind Devonish is Gregory Blackman who ensures the grand old lady makes it to the park after she attends church.
