Our Personal Hero

Excerpt from the Jamaica Observer column published on Monday, October 17, 2022

By Jean Lowrie-Chin

I was grateful that Observer Senior Business Reporter Dashan Hendricks featured my business journey in last Wednesday’s paper. Pressed for space, Dashan was not able to include that part of the interview when I related how my husband Hubie Chin became involved in the business. Please allow me to tell that story.

It was 1988 when we decided to adopt our second child and the business was getting even more demanding. Hubie, who is an engineer by profession and had a high paying job, agreed to join the business, thus allowing for a better work-life balance. What a blessing that was. Hurricane Gilbert hit in September of that very year and thanks to his skills, the business was up and running in days. Hubie’s arrival at PROComm also coincided with the demands of information technology which his scientific mind was quick to manage and to maintain over the past 34 years. This man of God is a caring father and husband, the math whiz and the DIY star. He is as humble as he is brilliant so I may get in trouble for writing this.

Happy Birthday to the rock of our family, our hero Hubie Chin.
