SCORES OF CURIOUS onlookers continue to gather at the doors of the Wildey Gymnasium  as family and friends pay their last respects to Shakira and Shameka Shepherd and Wavenie Johnson.

The three young women were among four who died tragically two Sundays ago in what has been described as the most horrific road accident for the year.

Tears continue to flow freely as tributes are being performed in their honour from family members, friends and coworkers of the trio who were inseparable throughout their short lives. (RA)
