The PDM yesterday added its voice to the mountain of sympathies and well wishes that continue to pour in since her passing of Samantha Williams Glinton, a senior member of Staff of the Director of Public Prosecutions Office early Sunday morning.
The death of such a brilliant, young, productive Turks and Caicos Islander is a tragic event to a fledgling country as ours. Mrs. Glinton though young had already touched many lives positively in these Islands and as such has left an indelible mark. Her professional contributions to her chosen field is above all to be celebrated having attained the level of Senior Prosecutor so early in her career.
With a vivacious personality, her passion for life and her career was unmatchable, said Hon Sharlene Cartwright Robinson in a statement to RTC News.
“Having known Samantha all of her life, I find this to be an extremely difficult experience. I have very fond memories of watching her grow up on the Island of South Caicos, interacting with her as her Sunday School teacher and as an older youth in our Church and as an older youth from the South Caicos community who pursued the same profession and then as adults. I can say as many of us have said already, that this is a major loss for us and our home Island of South Caicos which has over the years suffered some deafening blows and by extension, these Islands. Sam was an outspoken and opinionated person who let you know what she felt, whether you liked it or not. Her strong personality and confidence radiated from her. To say that she will be sadly missed is an understatement”, says Hon Robinson.
The PDM wishes to offer our sincerest sympathy to her husband, Officer Tomiko Glinton and her parents Sonia Greene Williams and Colin Williams. Our prayers remain with them and the entire family.
The Turks and Caicos Islands has indeed suffered a great loss,” the statement added.
