Our Founders

Life is short. The time we have known and been exposed to Lloyd Wilson has been a privilege. We, his immediate family, have reflected on the “Daddy” we know, in order to highlight a few prominent images and suggest concrete ways in which this privilege may be honored.

Leabert St Clair Downes was born on April 20, 1914. In the late 1930's, he established Downes Funeral Home which he operated at Eagle Hall, St Michael for close to half a century.

Mrs. Elva Wilson matriarch of the Wilson family who, in partnership with Lloyd Snr. both now at rest, kept the fire of the Wilson vision alive - a vision that is based on service to people and to the community, a vision that recognizes and celebrates humanity, family and life itself.
