When I met Mr. Grant many years ago, he was so warm and accepted me as a family. Of course, because we shared the same surname. R.I.P Mr. G. 




My memories of you Uncle Grant was one of love and laughter  each time you came to visit. As a young girl, when he came to visit us at home in Montego Bay, it was such a delight having him around. Mom (Ruth Campbell, Miss Polly) your sister in heaven now always had  some good food for you prepared. You will be missed!! To my cousins, my aunt's (Elaine Triplett and Aunt Dee) and family, Uncle Grant is now at peace. You are all in my thoughts, and you have the love and support from all those close to you at this time.

I give thanks that my sister Michelle,  who was present for our family gathering in 2010, and prior to that,  was able to achieve Mum's intention to live in the States and be nearer to family,  is  once more  physically Present today; to represent  Betty's  tribe; the UK branch of our family: in honour of uncle Grant. 

I light a candle today; and in expression of the Eternal Spirit: give thanks continually for the Life of Uncle Grant. 

May he Rest in Peace... 

Love and Light

My dearest Uncle Grant, 

I give thanks for your Life.

I give thanks for your love and devotion for my mother Betty and for your support and care for her when she arrived in England. 

I give thanks  for your presence in London on the day of my birth. 

I give thanks to be able to in some small way continue  to follow my Mother's keen example over the years in keeping connected with family at home and abroad...and for your presence as one of our Elders at our family gathering in New York in 2010 in cousin Shirley's home.  What a joyful day that was - with 4 generations of our family coming together from the States to meet with us travelling from the UK. 

On that same journey,  it was good to sit and break bread with you in your home, and  in true Affrikan Griot style  for my daughter Chloe and I,  and my sister Karen and her son my nephew Ross to be able to learn more about our family tree from you. 

I will treasure those memories always. 

May your life's journey be honoured
in our memories: today and eternally.

Rest in Power Uncle Grant...

Love and Light
From your Niece Maureen

I am learning how to live
In a new way
Since that day
You were taken away.

I am learning how to live
With the things left unsaid
Knowing I got to say them
With every tear that I shed.

I am learning how to live
By embracing the pain
Knowing that you live on
Through the memories that remain.

I am learning how to live
Knowing I will never again see your face
And I have peace knowing
You’re in a better place.

I am learning how to live
Knowing you’re in God’s care
It gives me the strength to move on
And makes the pain much easier to bear.

Dad, as much as a mourning, your death is a celebration… because you made my life nothing short of one. My loss is Heaven’s gain. I miss you daddy. Dad, your memories have become my heartbeats – which means I am thinking of you all the time just to stay alive. I miss you.

I guess we never thought about what it would be like when you would no longer be here. You have always been such a key part of our lives, and such a steadfast and healthy part; We never let ourselves consider what it might be like once you were no longer here with us. And now that you are no longer on Earth with us anymore. 

I am so thankful that you were our Grandpa. And I’m even more thankful that we was able to live so close to you and to be able to do so many things with you throughout the years,  

We had the best Grandpa ever. We are grieving the loss of you – the most amazing man. A devoted person, a deeply loved and respected father, and an adored grandfather. The world seems a little less vibrant without you in it, Grandpa.

But thankfully, this isn’t the final goodbye. Thankfully, we share the same faith that this isn’t the end. I know will see you again someday. Kenene, Kerene , Des, Tiana and Shy

They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.
For no-one knows the heartache
That lies behind our smiles,
no-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something,
So there wont be any doubt,
You’re so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back
When we were all together
The family chain is broken now,
But memories will live forever.

Heavenly Father hear my prayer, 
Guide my Father with tender care, 
Dear Shepherd don't leave him alone, 
Love him in heaven as we 
all do at home.

May you always walk in sunshine
and God’s around you flow,
for the happiness you gave us,
no one will ever know.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone,
a part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
A million times we needed you,
a million times we’ve cried.
If love could only have saved you,
you never would have died.
The Lord be with you and
may you rest in peace.
