Uncle Venty was a great community man, I admired and respected him. A passionate SDA and a committed comrade, I have embraced those attributes and will do so until death in his honour. I share great friendship with his children, one of my mentor in 1986 Tony Blacks encouraged me to be educated and return to be the political representative, if he was still with us...... Sleep well Tuss

My Dad was the Dad of all Dads. First he made me, then he raised me and most importantly he loved me with an everlasting love. His life was a well preached sermon that impacted lives of all ages. He epitomizes the art of loving, caring, sharing and smiling. He Rocks my world both in life and death and my life will never be the same without him. He will live forever in my heart. I adore him

Pops, I know you are sweetly resting in the arms of Jesus. Your journey has ended and the Master sees it fit to call you home. You will be missed; your humility, sweet tender ways and pleasant smile. But, your memories will be left in your wonderful daughter, Sandra. Rest in place, dad. God be with you even now.

Uncle Venty, I saw you a few months ago, we laughed we chatted we joked. I did not know at the time that it would have been our last meeting here on earth, but those were pleasant few moments which I will cherish. May your soul rest in peace.

Dearest Dad, Uncle Venty, Tuss, whichever name I call you by, you will always be the father who gave his all and more to your kids and all who knew you. Thanks for always been there for us. You will be missed but always remembered. Luv u Lots Dad !!!! Rest in Peace !!!

God bless your life.

Tuss, our lives have always been intertwined as a family. We've shared so May happy moments &a few sad. I can't think of you without thinking of "Vassie". I will miss you on so many levels but I feel confident in your destiny. May your soul RIP &maybe, just maybe two great loves will once again unite.

Uncle Venty, you touched our lives in one way or another. As I watched you slipping away this morning i know you were peaceful and comfortable. Until then, may your soul rest in peace. You will be missed, we cannot forget those Sundays when we were hungry just waiting for the car to drive up to the house we board with the much desired food to feed our hungry souls. Thank u !!!!!
