Hundreds gather in Westmoreland to lay entertainer Medikk to rest

WESTMORELAND, Jamaica — Hundreds turned out for a thanksgiving service in remembrance of the life and legacy of entertainer Medikk.

In February, the skeletal remains of the entertainer, who grew up in church and wrote her first song at the age of 10, were found in a cane field in Wallen, St Catherine.

Medikk, who was from Westmoreland, had been living in Mayfair, Red Hills, St Andrew, at the time of her untimely passing.

Her cremated remains were laid to rest at Honeygan’s Funeral Home & West Palm Memorial Gardens in the town.
