You and your wife were our very first Treasure Beach friends, 40+ years ago; we treasured your friendship, and our children enjoyed spending part of their holidays with yours.
You are in our hearts and minds.

To our neighbour, Lancel. We are deeply saddened by your loss. Miss Van always had a cheery wave for us each time we passed by your house - it helped us feel so welcome in Treasure Beach. We will miss her. God bless.

Our deepest sympathies to Lancel,Sharon,Lilleth,Mark and Carvel for the passing of a dear beloved wife and mother. Van may your soul rest in peace. You will be always be remembered and missed.

Our deepest sympathy to Mas Lancel,Sharon,Lilleth, Mark and Carvel for the passing of Miss Vaneta. Miss Vaneta was a saintly woman, and a pillar of the community. Miss Vaneta is surely missed, but never forgotten.

I have the most wonderful memories of Miss Van. My father had known Lancel since they were both young men and when we built Lyric 35 years ago Lancel was the one that kept that house together for us. As children we spent every waking moment with Lancel and Miss Van's son Mark either over at Lyric or over at their house. Miss Van always had a fried fish for us, or plums or some treat. She used to boil the biggest dumplings for my sister Sarah just because she knew how much she loved them. She was an incredibly kind, thoughtful, caring and gentle person. We were very lucky to have seen her last week and I can still see her sitting on the verandah over at her house. We will all miss her terribly...she was huge part of our youth and childhood. For the rest of her family...Lancel, Mark, Sharon, Lillith, Carvell and all the rest you know that we are always thinking of you.

To the Graham family


It seems like just yesterday I heard her voice saying sweet loving words of comfort and encouragrment.Today they still ring so sweetly in my ears. The short time I knew her she touched my heart. During her illness she was very brave, strong and fought to the very end.So sleep on my darling friend you did your best you gave your all. The love she gave will always be cherished never to be forgotten.

Sweet Dreams Goodnight

My sincere sympathy goes out to Mas Lancel and all his children on the passing of Miss Vaneta a beloved wife and mother.My mother and father were friends of this beautiful kind couple and I had the opportunity of talking with Mas Lancell when he came to show his respect on the passing of my mother.I would think he was there when my father passed on also but, my head was in such a fog seeing my parents died only three months apart I was not sure of all the good kind people that joined me and my siblings at his funeral.
My prayers are with you and the children at this sad time but God will grant you all the strength needed to get through it all.

Just want to pass on my condolences to the Graham family on the passing of Miss Vaneta. Hang in there guys, I know it is a difficult time for you all, but God will give you the strength to endure her passing at this time. I will always remember her nice smile and the loving person she was and her memories will always live on in the hearts of her children, family, friends and those who knew her. May her soul rest in peace.

Grandad I'm so sorry about grandma she will always remain in our hearts and thoughts for as long as we shall live, my deepest sympathy goes out to you all. Love you always
