Wow! It's really great reading about transplanted Virgin Islanders and former Virgin Islands residents, and what they've been up to since leaving our shores.
I think this is a wonderful way for the extended Virgin Islands family to stay in touch. It may also be a means for our off island contacts to expand their opportunity through our common heritage and/or experience.
I'd like to extend an invitation to Virgin Islands residents to contact St. Thomas Source and advance any leads of former Virgin Islands residents living abroad. It would be great if folks would send a photo as well. (Digital photos are acceptable.)
We're 115,000 strong in the V.I. Imagine our legions around the globe. Contact St. Thomas Source via e-mail at [email protected] if you've got someone you'd like to feature.
Let's not sit on our laurels, no matter how small. We all share in the successes of our patriots.
I look forward to reading more about us.
