Magella Louis-Charles migrated to the United States of America in the month of December 1964.

Our beloved lady Magella was ahead of her time and a true visionary, she worked two jobs as a nurse's aide to sponsor extended family members and friends to America. She invested in New York real-estate and she was a philanthropist, donating money and goods for the people of Haiti. Magella was known as a God-loving woman of very few words. She spoke softly but as her grandchildren can attest to, she carried a big stick.
