We Remember Leroy Alexander Eversley 1950-2011


Hi Fam,
It is with a sad heart that I reach out to the family and announce the departure of my cousin, Mr. Leroy Alexander Eversley ...1950 -2011. Leroy was the brother of sisters; Rosie, Ezla, Lydia & Lystra, & Uncle/Great uncle to Junior, Derbe, Briana & Niomi. Leroy lived all his life in Tobago and was put to rest by Ezla last week at his final resting place. We love and will miss him.

Kicking & Screaming to the #$%!! End!

Hi Fam,

Well, after 18 years and two months, Erica is off and settled in her new surrounding at Mohawk University. Here she is at the college dorm saying her farewells to us as we pulled off and allowed her to start a new chapter in life. This was a happy and painful separation as most parents experience. As adults, we know we've done the right thing by having her take this step in her life to make something of it. Life is not easy and this time of struggle and happiness is something not enough of our kids experience. The next two years are going to be eventful and a whole new appreciation of independence will also become relevant to her as to why we raised her the way we did.
We have so many people that helped mold her into this person we see today; her tias, cousins, friends, and family.
Again, it was a sad affair as to us leaving her so far but so near if the need ever arose.
As you can see from our picture below, this was a very sad day for us, we didn't want to let her go. Will we ever forgive ourselves for having our daughter 5 hours away from us, it was all so traumatic that we considered taking her back home the same day. I mean, here we now have spare rooms, not have to spend money and feel under appreciated, no yelling and worrying about where she is/was, I mean we're going to miss these things, right? NOT!! all I can say is; Hip Hip Hooray, finally! oops, forgot, this is a sad day for all, see our tears!!!! (hee hee)
