Jacqueline Dyce

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Jacqueline Scholastica Dyce, née Bain. She was lovingly known as Jackie, Mummy, Grandma, Jacks, and Jackita. She was born on February 10, 1942 to Isabella and Ashley Bain, in the twin island nation of Trinidad and Tobago. On Friday, July 8, 2022, she passed peacefully in her Milton home, surrounded by family members.

She was 80 years old at the time of her passing. She will be remembered as a loving mummy, witty grandma, supportive mother-in-law, kind aunty, caring friend, gentle colleague and prayerful church parishioner. She will be sadly missed as an extraordinary home-maker, nurturing teacher, and wise confidante.

She enriched the lives of countless students whom she taught over the course of more than forty years during her teaching career. She touched the lives of many family members, neighbors, colleagues, and friends, who easily became extended family members.

She is predeceased by her dear husband, Stafford Dyce, her parents, Isabella and Ashley, and her brother, Michael.

She is survived by her daughters Sharlene and Deline, sons-in-law, Wayne and Lester, grandchildren, Tracelle, Tori-Ann, Matthew, Travis, Nathan and Leah, nephew, Marlon, niece Jackie, her Uncle Nebert, and many friends, especially in Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and the USA.

We thank God for her life and the shining example that she set for so many. May she rest in peace.
