 With over 30 years experience in catering, Simona Morrill, known to all as June, delivers culinary excellence with every meal, from the intimate dinner party, the ministerial or diplomatic court cocktail, high-profile events to beautiful birthday cakes, June has done it all and has fed the tummies of many locally, regionally and internationally. June baked her first cake when she was 8 and prides herself as being self-taught and deeply inspired by her mother who, instead of buying dollies and toys at Christmas time, gifted her cooking books. Her cooking and catering career started off in her mother's kitchen and continued to grow steadily as she married her husband Warren Morrill who she says has joined forces with her to make the dream of catering a reality. In catering for the recent Upa Soka Cruise 2023, jars over the years to cooking memorable meals and baking cakes for special occasions for families across St. Lucia. Tonight, we honor the journey and contribution of a woman who has stood the test of time and continues to make a worthwhile contribution to the tourism and hospitality sector of St. Lucia. Ladies and gentlemen, in the category of special recognition for the inaugural St. Lucia Tourism and Hospitality, Jimmy's Mrs. Simona June Morrill.
