We want to thank each and everyone of you.
Here at this moment we are gathering to celebrate our family’s brightest star.
It is important to her memory that we remember to "ole your head high".
Be good to each other, and more importantly try to make every space (virtual or real) that we enter in (don’t really need the “in”) be better after we have done so.
Each one should take up the challenge of encouraging another to be better today than they were yesterday, be each other's keeper, this is my sister’s wish for this community.
Respect each other and behave in a manner that will continue to make everyone proud to be Jamaican or to be associated with us in the years and days to come. This would have been her small contribution to a grouping of personalities so talented, so motivated, and so full of passion to laugh, cry and share, while always being conscious that this forum will be apart of the landscape and a window via which our community is viewed and is presented all over the world (a web brower and a mouse click away). Lets take up the charge to chronicle of our own history and do so as only Jamaicans can do.
Be careful of the power of words to harm and be generous (with them) in it use to build someone's else esteem. Say a kind word; it costs you nothing. Smile often; it welcomes angels to the cradle of your heart.
Keep the www.jamaicans.com vibrant and dynamic, always welcoming new ideas. Be tolerant always, giving respect to everyone, regardless of ethnicity, religion, orientation, class or economic status.
If you have contacted our family, or wanted to, if you prayed for us or my sister, if you are attending the service of thanksgiving or just the viewing, if you were there for my sister in any capacity or wanted to but didn't get a chance to, I simply thank you.
Words simply devalue how much your support has meant to us, and the memory of our sister.
Let me say we are overwhelmed with your acts and gestures of kindness that recounts the memory of our sister and what she has meant to all of us, the prayer of comfort and all the many ways you have expressed your love and admiration.
Thank you for being our sister’s keeper.
