It takes a big heart to help shape little minds. My aunt, Myrtle Marshall, was born in Georgetown Public Hospital on May 29th, 1957. Like her grandmother, Druscilla Marshall and her mother, Alma Marshall, my aunt took on the role of an educator for kindergarteners until she retired. Her grandmother (my great-grandmother) Druscilla was a pioneer who opened and ran Teacher Marshall’s Kindergarten School in Georgetown. Some of her children, nieces and grandchildren followed the same path. Teachers with big hearts, like my aunt Myrtle, positively shaped the lives of the younger generation in Guyana.
