## Resource

Barbados is in mourning after the shocking death of Dr. Shelly-Ann Cox, the nation’s youngest-ever Chief Fisheries Officer and only the second woman in the Caribbean to hold the role. Just 38, she was a beloved trailblazer whose passion for fisheries and deep compassion for others left an indelible mark. Her father, Marvon Cox, described her as a radiant force who made everyone feel seen and cherished, while the outpouring of grief and praise from colleagues, fishermen, and students underscores her profound impact. Mourners gathered at Lyndhurst Funeral Home to honor her legacy, offering comfort to her grieving family, especially her young son Shae and grandmother Elsa Spencer, as faith and community stand as pillars through this devastating loss.
