The Office of the Chief Health Inspector is asking the public to help locate the relatives of two deceased men whose bodies remain unclaimed at Barnes Funeral Home.
The deceased have been identified as Karl Lashley, who died on June 3, 2026, and Isaac Watson, who died on June 24, 2026.
Family members are urged to contact Jessica Barnes, Managing Director of Barnes Funeral Home Limited on Irwing Barnes Close, American Road, by calling 462-1037 to make arrangements for a private burial.
The Office of the Chief Health Inspector said relatives have 14 days from the publication of the notice to come forward. If no arrangements are made within that period, the government will proceed with the interment of the bodies at a public cemetery without further notice.
The office also warned that legal action after the burial would not be an option and appealed to affected families to cooperate.
