Dear Family and Friends,
It is with heavy hearts that we prepare to lay Elmore Feddoes, our beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, & friend to rest on November 1, 2025, in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. As we come together to celebrate his life and legacy, we reflect on the remarkable impact he had on those around him.
Our father devoted many years of service as a dedicated painter with Public Works, where his skill and craftsmanship contributed to the construction and maintenance of many of the country’s key structures, including schools and other public buildings across St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Most notably, he played an instrumental role in shower plastering the Financial Complex before its opening—work he took great pride in.
He was also a talented cricketer, respected both on and off the field. His deep love for the game led him into umpiring, where he was later honoured with the Best Umpire of the Year award—an achievement that reflected his fairness, discipline, and enduring passion for the sport.
In addition, he was a cherished figure in the football community, where he was beloved by many for his involvement and spirited support. Whether in a cricket match or on a football game, his presence was felt, and his memory will live on through the countless lives he touched.
