THE DEATH OF a cherished family member can have long-lasting effects on family and friends. When the loss is as a result of a suicide, the impact can be devastating.
Relatives and friends were shocked on Friday to learn that 18-year-old Chevonne King, the mother of a five-month-old son, had apparently taken her own life.
The body of King was discovered hanging at her Black Rock, St Michael home by her best friend.
Her father, David Greenidge, attended a CITA radio event in Queen’s Park, The Alabaster Box Night Of Prayer, hours later seeking answers to the seemingly senseless death of his daughter.
“She was a grade A student; very outstanding,” he told the SUNDAY SUN as he visibly fought with the grief.
