I came along seeing how my brother and sisters smiled whenever their daddy was coming to visit and each visit felt like it was the first time to them. When you passed away I saw the pain and hurt within their eyes and even though you were away from Barbados for so many years their love for you remained the same. St Clair may you rest on and I pray that God will comfort my brother, sisters and mother during this difficult time.

Jonathan you have been my husband for 44 years and like all marriages we have had our moments. Although we lived in different countries we always kept in contact. I never ever thought that June 14 would be the last time we would share our last joke. I'm so sorry that you are gone and miss you so much. In your memory our kids including Jennifer that I have taken as my own will always remember and cherish our memories of you.
