One attendee described the service as impressive and filled with lots of love. Mama Ivy’s daughters and daughters filled the church with countless heartfelt stories of her strength and was notably a heroine to her family.

It was said that Mama Ivy was left in Kingston when her parents migrated to England and was left in charge of her siblings who also felt cared for and described her as the ultimate caregiver who gave to others before she gave to herself. She taught her eight children to be kind and generous to others and often had to turn a little into a lot in order to provide for them even after losing her youngest son who was sixteen at the time he died. It was better to pray than to slumber over worries was her motto, as she had to also play the role of both parents to some of her children.

Once an avid P.N.P activist, Mama Ivy was also employed by the party and would often give her check to the neighborhood as she became an advocate for the poor.

Bounty Killer was overcame with emotions and did was unable to join the family in their speeches but was told by the Pastor to fulfill his mother’s wishes and sing songs for God as he was his mother’s shining star who held up well throughout the ceremony. He was also one of the Pallbeares.
