Stand together for Andrea

Andrea Nicholls<br /> Born the 30th of November 1938, in Vielle Case, Dominica to Lewis (d) and Disnie Royer <br /> (d), Andrea Nicholls, was called home to be with the Lord on December 15, 2021. <br /> Andrea was the youngest of four children. At the young age of nine, her mother passed <br /> and her aunt, Mildred Bedneau Royer (d), and her father’s first cousin, Ian Royer (d), <br /> took her to Barataria, Trinidad, where she thrived in a loving home with her beloved <br /> cousins. Andrea attended and graduated from Emmanuel Secondary School in <br /> Barataria. Shortly after on January 2, 1958, she matriculated in the Port of Spain <br /> General Hospital Nursing School. She graduated in July 1961 and completed midwifery <br /> studies just twelve months later. She then was dispatched to Sangre Grande General <br /> Hospital for six months where she perfected her skills as a registered nurse. <br /> From the late 1960’s through the early 1990’s, Andrea worked in the New York hospital <br /> system as a registered nurse in the ICU and cancer units. She was diagnosed with <br /> diabetes in her late sixties and was very conscientious about the management of her <br /> chronic condition. She returned home to Trinidad and again worked at the Port of Spain <br /> General Hospital and later at the Adventist Community Hospital in Cocorite. <br /> Andrea was a big advocate of healthy eating and exercise. She loved to garden and <br /> found great pleasure in any activity that involved seeing family and friends, especially <br /> during the Carnival season.<br /> She is survived by her two daughters and son, along with a multitude of grandchildren, <br /> great-grandchildren, other family members and a host of friends around the world.
