 Beverly Kelso, a foundation and cornerstone member, is very much alive and well, living in #Brooklyn, New York. She was born in #Kingston, #Jamaica, in April 1948 and attended Miss Nembhard Prep, and later, the Denham Town Primary School in Kingston. Kelso was in Jamaica in July 2012 to receive an award for her services to music, at the big Kingsley Goodison-conceived ‘Tributes to The Greats 15 Awards Show and Dance’ at Curphy place also played another key role in the Wailers saga when she introduced Rita Marley to Clement ‘Coxson’ Dodd. The association not only brought Rita into the music business but also brought her into contact with #BobMarley. It can be said that, in a sense, Kelso unwittingly started the Marley empire.
