Anyway, let us all respect the ocean. Not condemning anyone as I do not know what happened.. There is a blatant disrespect for the sea and many boaters feel they can overpower this amazing and unassuming element. If you're out there, whether as a swimmer, fishing on the rocks, on a dinghy, commercial boat, skiing, cruise ship or just joy riding, follow the rules, have your safety gear, night equipment and use basic common sense at all times. Be careful out there
Sad story
you people on this island like to call people name behind these site but could never take it to facebook or in person.
i don't believe for one second this man calling anyone of you people maybe it someone else cause why and what he need to call you guys for it not even his business he just work for them. but you people on this little rock and yes i am a born here deep in the ground too is sick with you all. as something happen you quick to use these area to talk or call people down but in them face you smiling god dont like ugly.
stop the bullshit.....
I really don’t see the big deal if someone from the new funeral home calls family members and offers their services. After all, they are new and trying to establish themselves.
There’s only one other funeral home that had the monopoly for umpteen years. Many, many families had issues with that funeral home but could they have done? The dead had ti be buried. Let’s see how everything plays out now that families have a choice.
I am glad that there is another funeral home I belive in choice, I don't berks in 16 calls in a two day period I don't belive in calls to every cousin and close friend building a business is fine harassment and bullying is not
You said that many many families had issues, what did you do Bishop to make things better?
