My Condolences to Beverly, Jessica, Michael and Courtnay and Cheryl and the rest of the family. I Remember all the good times we had with her and Uncle Clifford at Silver Sands and later at Bathsheba and at their home in Kingston Terrace and at my parent's home in Rendezvous. The close friendship shared by her, Uncle Clifford, my Dad and Mom. I can't remember a time when they were in Barbados that they did not have a something going on Old Years Night not coming home until the early hours of the New Year's morning, the closeness between our two families and the bond of friendship between her and my mother. Hearing how surprise she that my cousin Sandy turned out to be her Doctor when she had to be hospitalized in New Jersey. My mother always referred to as "P" so much so that me and my siblings all refered to her as in true bajan tradition as Aunt "P" or Auntie "P". I always remember and admired her true and peaceful spirit and what I heard she did for my mother in her declining years taking her for drives to get her out of the House and the times she and uncle Clifford visited me and my Brothers and Sister in Canada before Uncle Clifford died. Those were good memories. May she rest in peace with the Angels.

My fondest memory of Mrs. Forde is her warm and welcoming smile, very gentle and always has an encouraging word for you. She was deeply in love with her God. I can remember the day, she told me she always wanted to be baptised and she did. Oh, the joy was seen all over her face.
She loved Church and both young and elderly people. May she rest in peace and rise in Glory. Amen
Aunty Phyllis, P, Aunt P, are the many names we affectionately called you. From games evenings through family gatherings to Tuesday talks, you will be forever in our hearts. Rest in eternal peace.
Mom! I miss you dearly. You were a true Mom to me. Deeply sorry that I could not visit or chat with you. The memories are sweet. Rest in peace and rise in Glory.
You were patiently waiting to go to Sweet Jesus.
To Beverley, Michael, Jesse, Cheryl and the rest of the family, my deepest condolences.
