Deepest condolences to the family during this difficult time.. Saying goodbye is never easy even when knowing that the departed is now in Jesus’s loving embrace.
Uncle Harold was a meaningful part of my school years and I spent many an afternoon at the Deanery with his daughters. Later on her gave martial counseling and then officiated at my wedding in 1986.
The angels have increased their ranks. Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory.
Sincerely,
Carolyn Saul-Piper & Family.

My deepest sympathy on behalf of the Allsopp family in Barbados and overseas to the family of Dean Harold Crichlow on his passing. A friend and mentor to my late husband, Richard and to myself, we valued his companionship and his advice. May he rest in peace eternal and rise in glory.

My heartfelt condolences also to the current Dean Dr. Jeffrey Gibson and the Cathedral family, as well as to the entire Diocese.

Grace-Ann, Gloria and family - We were indeed saddened to hear of the passing of your Dad. As you know he was a dear friend and colleague of our late father and I came to treasure his kind counsel and friendship as well through that longstanding personal relationship they maintained. Sincere condolences to you both and all the family at this time.

Richard Harrison - also on behalf my late parents and the Harrison family in general, we send our heartfelt sympathy.

I would like to offer my deepest condolences to the family, relatives, colleagues and friends of the late Dean Emeritus Harold Critchlow who transitioned to his new life on June 22, 2025.
Dean Critchlow was my French teacher and Cadet Officer at his alma mater, Combermere School. He was a disciplinarian during his teaching days (and as Earl Newton had remarked, during his days in sixth form), but was a warm and engaging conversationalist when he became a full time priest. He was a fearless social commentator and lifelong learner. We had several engaging conversations on economic and social matters and it was clear that he had a deep concern for the vulnerable and disadvantaged in the society. His voice on such matters has been silent in recent years but his legacy will live on. Up and On my fellow Combermerian. You have fulfilled your tasks with us and your talents are needed elsewhere. Bon voyage.

Sincere condolences to the family. As a former student of Christ Church High School, the Dean played a significant part in shaping the character of myself and many of the students. Thank you and rest in peace.

Sincere condolences to the family of the late Dean Emeritus Harold E. Crichlow.
In the mid 1960's Rev. Harold Crichlow as he was known then, was appointed Head Master of Christ Church High School. He was an excellent teacher and disciplinarian. he introduced many extra curricular activities at our school, including The Debating Society, The Glee Club, Chess Club, Appreciation of Classical Music, Appreciation of Ballroom dancing. Those precious experiences will be for ever in our hearts. R.I. P.

My deepest sympathy to the Bishop and clergy of the Diocese of Barbados. I always enjoyed listening to Dean Crichlow on the radio while at Codrington in the early seventies. Condolences to his dear family.
