Gathering for Elvis

Last Friday we heard the unfortunate news that we lost a much-loved man of Saint Kitts. Elvis, former owner of Elvis' Loveshack on The Strip at Timothy's Beach, was a victim of a senseless violent act conducted by a local Kittitian.

Because of the terrible news, our weekly volleyball matches were rightfully cancelled, as we all held very heavy hearts. In an effort to comfort each other and pay our respects, a lot of us went down to Elvis' bar for a few hours anyway. We gathered around a bonfire, watched the sunset, and shared memories of our dear friend.

In the background, you can see students/spouses writing their goodbyes to Elvis.

Words for Elvis. (This photo was not taken by me; it was circulating on Facebook, but I did edit it with Instagram.)
