Mol­ly was born on Jan­u­ary 21, 1938, in Wood­brook, Trinidad, and grad­u­at­ed from St. There­sa's Girls RC Sec­ondary School. Short­ly there­after, she met her hus­band, Michael, at R.J. Shan­non and Co. Ltd. She re­tired from her role as a life in­sur­ance agent at Guardian Life In­sur­ance Co. where she faith­ful­ly served her clients.

Mol­ly was on the Blue Streaks hock­ey team and played ten­nis. She en­joyed craft­ing projects, was an en­tre­pre­neur at heart, an avid card play­er, and a lover of any game, from board games to cha­rades. She loved Je­sus whole­heart­ed­ly and was a con­stant source of in­spi­ra­tion and en­cour­age­ment to all who knew her. Her faith­ful work in the Liv­ing Wa­ters com­mu­ni­ty as an in­ter­ces­sor and lay coun­selor will be for­ev­er re­mem­bered. Great was her wis­dom and faith­ful­ness to love and serve God and oth­ers. She bright­ened every space with her pres­ence and con­ta­gious hu­mor and her un­wa­ver­ing love for God, her fam­i­ly, ex­tend­ed fam­i­ly, and the grand­chil­dren she ab­solute­ly adored, will be for­ev­er trea­sured in our hearts. Her lega­cy and im­pact will live on in the lives of many. Un­doubt­ed­ly, her Lord and Sav­ior, Je­sus Christ, wel­comed her with open arms as He said to her, “Well done, good and faith­ful ser­vant. Great is your re­ward.” (Matt 25:21 and Matt 5:12). Fu­ner­al ser­vices will be held in Bar­ba­dos on Thurs­day, De­cem­ber 9, 2021, at 10:00 am and will be livestreamed.
