She was the first Miss Guyana to go to the Miss World contest and was
loved by all who saw her. She was placed in the semi-finals and received letters from all over the world telling her she was one of the most beautiful and graceful woman they saw in the contest. She was a pleasure to
know and a great honour for all who met her. Umblita passed away in 2004, may her soul rest in peace
