October 30, 2024 at 8:00 pmCondolences to our Walkes’ family during this time. Auntie Hyacinth was my father Roland Walkes’ one and only sister.
May my Auntie Hyacinth rest in peace.
My best memories of Auntie Hyacinth was when our family would visit Barbados from Canada. One thing was for certain. We always had delicious Bajan cuisine cooked by our aunt on a daily basis.
I also remember Auntie Hyacinth making sure that we had Fru’tee drinks and Tiger Malts during our stay.
Although you will be greatly missed, your beautiful spirit will remain in our hearts always.
Rest in Peace.
Mrs. Stephanie Walkes Jackson – USA
