She was an accomplished artist, potter and designer. She spent many hours watching as he designed new Antigua cotton fabrics. Morellen was the founder of the private Sunnyside School and I married her son Sandy in 1972. For many years we made frequent trips to Antigua, and were often guests of Amos and his amazing family. We are still in regular contact with his children having attended his daughter Lee's wedding in Boston many years ago. That was the last time we saw Amos. I too would appreciate an email address for Amos. Leslie was a very good friend of Morellen, and she spoke of her often. Please get in touch. We still have loads of Amos's wonderful Coco Shop fabrics fashioned into sundresses and used as upholstery materials.. We took our children to Antigua twelve years ago when the Morellen Wilson Hall was built following the hurricane, and Sunnyside School still stands as a tribute to her strength and courrage. Please be in touch if you would like to share other Antigua memories. We have just enjoyed the company of some Antigua friends this past wkend here in snowy south western Ontario where we now live. Cheers, Elaine Bishop Wilson Hi Kim,

I had the great pleasure of knowing Amos and the family while stationed at the Naval Facility in Antigua. The years were 1969-1971 and I spent alot of my off duty time in Hodges Bay with the family. Unless I am mistaken didn't your grandmother Leslie teach at a small private school in Antigua? If so I have a wonderful story to tell you about her. If you have Amos' email I would like to talk to him. I don't think his New York phone number is still working. Thank You, Bob Dillon Kim,
