All Three Brothers sitting in front of Eddie's Shop
Eddie sitting by himself on the left, Roderick sitting at the extreme right and Clarence sitting next to the door on the same side as Roderick.
Roderick the youngest died first, Clarence next then Eddie the first boy died shortly after. He just did not have to will to live after his two younger brothers died. They were very, very close and loved each other dearly.
Their sister Esmie, the only girl and second child died many years later.
The brothers could not have been closer, but they loved, adored and treated their only sister like a princess. She knew that she was special to them and would use it as an example to let her children know that they should live as good as she and her brothers.
Exact words from Eddie after Clarence died.
He cried like a baby and say, " Mi and mi brothers and sister from we bawn we tongue never meet". meaning they never had any major disagreement.
We hope that the off-springs will, "take a page from their book".
