My Story
Grandma what’s that is a saying I used a lot. All of my grandparents played a big role in my life. They taught me about where I was from and would tell me stories about when they were young.
When I was a child I would travel to Jamaica with my mother and grandma to a place called Nine Mile where my grandma was from. We would drive all the way up into the mountains until we reached a white house on top of a hill.
After we dropped our bags off, my grandma would take my hand and walk with me up another hill. There was a small building, with a few steps. Through the door was a room with high beige walls, and windows on each side.
Grandma would burn frankincense and myrrh while I walked all the way around what seemed to be a big rectangle in the middle of the room.
She would hold my hand so we could kneel and then she would pray. This was where my uncles Bob Marley and Anthony Booker were laid to rest.
As we said our goodbyes and headed back down the hill I would ask her questions about everything I saw. It was like I had my own personal guide who knew everything!
