Hyacinth Gloria Chen, the mother of businessman Michael Lee-Chin and Chairman of the Southern Regional Health Authority, Wayne Chen has died.
Chen who was 89 years old passed this morning. In a tweet earlier today, her son Wayne Chen said she “passed away at her home surrounded by people she loved, and who loved her back.” Chen was the matriarch of the family-owned chain of supermarkets, Super Plus Food Stores. She along with her husband, Vincent, started the family retail business, in Port Antonio, Portland in 1964, which became Jamaica’s largest retailer.
In 2008, her son Michael Lee-Chin established the Hyacinth Chen School of Nursing at Northern Caribbean University’s main campus in Manchester, named in her honour. The Hyacinth Gloria Chen crystal court at the Royal Ontario Museum in Canada is also named in her honour.
