Rest in peace, Dear Grandfather Bowen



It is with great sadness that I write this.


My granddad, Mr Carlise – yes this is the correct way to write his name, despite what the spellchecker says - Bowen, 91 years of age, died in the St Elisabeth hospital, in the Barbados parish of St Michael, on the 31st of December, 2014.

He's on the left of this picture, with noted family friend Mr Basil King.

No amount of words can describe my sadness at his death. One of the many comforts I have of him is that he was a wonderful, brilliant man, who was always a joy to be near.

Whatever the circumstances, he always knew how to bring out the best in people, young or old.

His funeral was held on Saturday 10th January, in the same district of the beautiful country Barbados.

Granddad, Mr Carlise Bowen, rest in eternal peace.

AS YOU’RE IN HEAVEN NOW, AS YOU DESERVE TO BE.

Light and Love

Your granddaughter Andria Greaves
