My Grand Papa James Isaac Mc Kie has been the only Grand father I have known and loved. He has been my teacher, role model and most of all my shouler to leave on when I was a little girl in Union Island. My grandad has taught me unconditional love, to follow my dreams, love my family, my culture , God and most of all to love my self. He first told me " Marie you are a special grand child "and I know that from day one. I was the only grand child in my Grandparents house at Salt Pond. I cheeris those moments going to top of the garden to fetch Aloe with him and to lit the Habour lamp.......................................... I will always cheerish all my fond moments with grandad especially having my share of old fashion discipline when I was caught whistling ....... I can't forget that moment when my grandad came for me on December 9th, 1979 to shelter me from the Uprising..... Grandad I will never forget you. "fly away to glory" on the wing of an angel your work on earth has ended and you novel journey has be gone... fly Grand pa fly fly and take your rest.
