Anniversary Obituary of the Late Evelyn (pronounced EV-LYN) Barry
In loving memory of the Late Evelyn Mary Barry, former Supervisor of Customs & Excise Department, who resided at Grand Mal, St. George, passed away on the 29th October 2023 and was entombed on the 23rd November 2023 at Wilberforce Cemetery.
We little knew the day
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly.
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you
but you didn’t go alone.
For part of us went with you
the day God called you home.
We’re left with beautiful memories.
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same,
but as God calls us one by one
the chain will link again.
The family of the Late Evelyn Mary Barry wishes to thank all who offered prayers and words of comfort during their time of bereavement. May her soul continue to rest in perfect peace.
Oswald Paul
The family of Oswald Paul is deeply saddened to announce his passing on October 23, 2026, at the age of 83.
Born on October 22, 1943, in Trinidad and Tobago. Oswald was the oldest of six siblings. Oswald worked as an Electrician, running his own successful business for over 60 Years.
He was a man that worked hard, was willing to sacrifice for the betterment of the family even if that meant working long hours and missing time with family but he always made up for it by cooking big meals for breakfast on the weekends.
Oswald is survived by his beloved wife of 56 years, Catherine. He leaves behind his loving children, O’Brian, April and Oscar. He also leaves behind his cherished grandchildren, Jorell, Sofia, Dania, Kareem and Malik and his son-in-law Jean-Francois. He is survived by his siblings Franklin, Lauris, Janette, Sebastin, Leon and Taddy.
Oswald was a mischievous jokester who enjoyed stirring the pot and watching the reactions of others. Most would have considered Oswald to be the life of the party, full of energy and having a larger-than-life personality.
He loved the Caribbean culture, always had music playing and enjoyed having his circle of friends over to share in his love of music, dancing and good food. He had a passion for adventure and travel.
