OP
|
Albert Gill, of reggae and Rasta Pasta fame, passed away this last week. Our sympathies go to Maralyn and the kids, and hope they get thru this trying time...

Have some photos, fond memories of Albert. Would like to pass them on to family -- maybe to brothers in Chicago? If anyone knows their contact info, please let me know. I wonder if Marilyn kept "the beard" (dred) he cut off early this year? Will miss this kind host and storyteller.

Marty Can you tell us what happened? I found Maralyn a potential friend and was sorry that she had left the island. Sorry that I didn't have time to get to know Albert, just what Maralyn told me.

Maralyn, I'm coming down in two weeks. Maybe I could bring you something. If anyone has anything to take to Maralyn, I would be happy to take it to her. Wrote down your phone #.

My heart goes out to you and your children, Maralyn, I know that there is nothing that I can say that will ease your pain, but my thoughts are with you..
Even though the whole country made a loss you and your family made the greatest loss.. be strong and try to look forward...
Love Tinka

Marilyn...I only met you a couple of times when we ate at Rasta Pasta in San Pedro...I soooo enjoyed the atmosphere and spirit there and was very sad upon returning to hear that you had moved south....I loved Albert's music and the gentle spirit I felt...my sincere sympathy goes out to you and your family during this very trying time...You are right, God won't give you more than you can handle...I hope that you find peace in Him... God Bless, Charri Strong, Phoenix

We just got back from Belize yesterday. We met Marilyn on a trip to Caves Branch, and she asked us to let all those who love her (and I am sure there are MANY) that she is doing well and is in good hands. The crew at Caves Branch are a warm group, and Marilyn and Star (her rasta puppy) seemed in very good spirits. What a remarkable, strong and kind woman!
