The Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Gender, Older Persons, Labour, Cooperatives and Consumer Affairs extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Mr. Kearny Henry, a dedicated staff member of the Comfort Bay Senior Citizens’ Home, who tragically lost his life in the vehicular accident in Ma Jomel, Laborie on February 24, 2026, alongside his child and common-law wife.
Mr. Henry, who served the institution faithfully since 2012 as a Driver and Office Assistant, was a cheerful, helpful, and dependable individual whose presence brought comfort not only to staff but also to the residents at the Home. His commitment, warmth, and willingness to assist in all aspects of the Home’s operations made him a true asset to the institution, and his passing is deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.
The circumstances of this loss particularly sadden the Ministry. We recognize the profound grief experienced by his surviving loved ones, as well as the staff and residents of Comfort Bay Senior Citizens’ Home, who have lost a devoted member of their extended family.
In this time of mourning, the Ministry reaffirms its commitment to supporting and providing care and guidance to the bereaved family and the Comfort Bay community. This will include psychosocial support, social assistance interventions, and continued outreach to the bereaved family and to the residents and staff of the Comfort Bay Senior Citizens’ Home.
The Ministry of Equity and Social Justice stands in solidarity with the family of Mr. Henry and the wider community. The Ministry honors Mr. Henry’s years of dedicated service to the nation’s older persons. His legacy of kindness, service, cheerfulness, and compassion will not be forgotten.
