Auntie has lived a very interesting life from the time she was born in
Jamaica W.I. The oldest of 6 kids quickly found herself in the hearts
of all she came across. Her best attributes was her kindness not only
to her family and friends but those less fortunate and most
importantly her love and faith to Jesus. She was a story teller,
delighting kids and adults alike with stories from the bible and from
her life.
She worked in the healthcare industry for many years by caring for the
elderly and friends. She worked in Jamaica, New York, London,England. Married three times, but never had kids of her own. However,
she was very caring and became a godmother to many. In her last days
she retired to sunny Florida where she continued to help and care for
family and friends.
We will miss our dear "aunt essie" for her laughter, comic ways,
kindness and most of all her love to us.
We love aunt essie and may you rest in peace as another "angel" in the
arms of your beloved Jesus!!!
