Family and friends from near and far gathered at the Kings Seventh-day Adventist Church in Mount Salem, Montego Bay, on Sunday, September 20, to pay tribute to Jeremiah “Jerry” Reid, a stalwart of the city’s sporting community.
A born Montegonian, Reid made his mark in several sports in St James and across western Jamaica. He rose to prominence in the early 1970s as a cricketer representing the parish.
His contribution to sport also included football, refereeing and coaching. As a former sports officer for St James, Reid helped nurture young talent and supported children’s development through sport.
He also served as an active member of the Montego Bay Cricket Club’s board for several decades.
Reid died on August 16 following a brief illness. He was laid to rest at Dovecot cemetery in St James.
