There was a sombre mood at the Spanish Town Seventh Day Adventist Church in St. Catherine today as family, community members, and well wishers, gathered to celebrate the life of 9-year-old Kelsey Ferrigon.

The young girl was murdered in Spanish Town, last month. 

Her body was discovered at her home on Job Lane Spanish Town on May 9. 

The main suspect, 30-year-old Giovanni Ellis, also known as “Coolie Man,” was shot and killed during an alleged confrontation with lawmen in Sandy Bay, Clarendon, soon after.

Members of the government were among those who attended Kelsey’s funeral on Monday.

Education and Youth Minister Dr. Dana Morris Dixon said more action must be taken to rid the country of child abuse. 

She said as they gathered to celebrate Kelsey today, there are many children who continue to be abused.

The minister called on the nation to stop protecting child abusers, simply because they are relatives and friends. 

Her comments were echoed by Member of Parliament for St. Catherine Central and Gender Minister Olivia Grange who reiterated that it takes a village to raise a child. 

She called for the country to return to the days when community members saw every child as their own. 

In the meantime, Louise Clarke, Principal of St. John’s Primary where Kelsey attended said she was quiet and was a known problem solver. 

And one of Kelsey’s relatives, Matthew Smith  said she was very smart and loving.
