RIP Uncle Edlie...Its another sad time for the Masters family, my condolences to Leon Masters as lay his father to sleep. Leon, uncle knew his time was close as he stated it in his remembrance of his sister Aunt Tally on April 24...To my nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, my sister was such a special person to me that words cannot explain the pain I feel inside for her loss she was such an inspiration to me. I was eight years old when our mother passed and she took it upon herself to raise me. She would always make sure that I was clean and fed, we had endless days of fun together and I sit here now and reminisce those good times we had. We did all sorts of things together and were virtually inseparable. One of my fondest memories of my sister is from when I was a child, I used to be really rude and always getting a beating from our mother. At times like this my mother would often sit on me and beat me, one day Tally must have decided that I wasnt going to get another beating and she grabbed momma and give her such a bite that momma stopped beat me and me and tally ran off. From that day on momma never beat me again, I was so grateful to Tally that day. The hardest thing I have found was when I became a man and decided that I was going to leave Jamaica and my sister and come to England and I feel so remorseful for leaving her behind. I would always phone or go back home every so often to be with her and the rest of the family but to tell the truth Tally was my closest sister and more like a mother to me and my heart is aching but I know that after seeing her the last time that she is in the arms of The Lord now being looked after and nursed by him. All of you whose hearts are breaking dont be saddened because the fond memories that we have of her will always be with us in our hearts and minds, she has gone but will never be forgotten by us, we have to stay strong for her as she is looking down upon us and trying to guide us the best she can and help us through this sorrowful time. We shall overcome this hurt and pain and on May 4th we shall all rejoice her life and lay her to rest. To my sons, grandchildren nieces nephews I know that my sister is in a comfortable place and Im sorry to say this but to my sister I have to say I will soon to be joining you and we can be together again, to all of you do not be disheartened by my last comment but my time too will soon be upon me and there I can join my sister and the rest of my family not wishing to leave you behind but life is life and these things happen I love you all and I will see soon before you lay my sister to rest where we shall all rejoice and give her the day that she deserves. Love always uncle Edlie.
