Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted

HAROLD ALEXANDER YORK

YORK, Harold Alexander, born to Mr. and Mrs. Alexander York, on the beautiful island of St. Maarten, Dutch West Indies, on June 9, 1911.
HAROLD was a storyteller and joker; he had a quick wit and dry sense of humour, always happy to have a war of words with anyone up to the challenge.  Those who knew him in this life will miss his laughter, his counsel, his retold jokes and stories, and most of all his big heart.  He was truly an inspiration to his family, friends and all who knew him.

HAROLD YORK died peacefully on Monday, December 6, 2010.  He is survived by his loving daughter, Astrid Angela York Webb; son-in-law, Rafael Webb; granddaughters, Ingrid Webb, and Rachel Webb Dixon and husband Evron Dixon; great grandchildren, Christopher, Matthew, Samantha, Asya, Jasmine, Vanessa, Jennifer and Ravyn; brother, Frederick York; nieces; nephews; great nieces; great nephews; his caretaker and neighbours, Esperancia and Alex Sutton; special friend Shirley Hodge and Marisa Boekhoudt.
HAROLD YORK was related to the York, Webb,Dixon, Pond, Gomez,Denis, Hazel, Meyers, Lake, Sutton,  Rogers,Toney, Romou, Arrindell, Richardson, Clark, and other families here and abroad.

Special thanks to the Methodist prayer group, doctors and nurses at the SMMC, and all who visited him during his illness.

Thanksgiving service for the life of Harold York will be held on Thursday December 9th, 2010, at the Emerald Funeral Home chapel in Cay Hill. Viewing will be from 1:00pm-2:00pm. Service will commence at 2:00pm. Burial will take place at the Cul de Sac cemetery

May His Soul Rest in Peace
