The mother of twelve used to travel to visit her children abroad but has been unable to do so since the nineties (90's) when her passport expired. Her birth paper has been misplaced and Registrar General Department requires someone older than her to verify her age. Nonetheless, Roslyn was able to vote in the September 2020 general election.
