Words cannot adequately express the depth of sorrow that we feel as we bid farewell to such a vibrant and charismatic soul. Carlton's passing leaves an indelible void in our lives, but his memory shall forever shine on in our hearts.

Carlton was one of those rare individuals who had the power to captivate an entire room with his presence. His magnetic personality and unwavering conviction made him a cherished friend to many.

In times like these, we often turn to words that offer solace and guidance. Today, it is fitting that we share a verse from the song "Shine On Jamaica" by Cherine Anderson – a song that encapsulates the spirit of resilience and hope that Carlton exemplified:

"Shine on, Jamaica,
Just like your sun,
Shine on in glory,
Now your time has come."

Carlton's shining example calls upon us to grasp life with both hands and seize every opportunity presented to us. He taught us that life is too precious to waste, and that it is our duty to make each moment count. His vibrant spirit will forever serve as a beacon of light, guiding us through the darkest of times.

As we celebrate Carlton's life today, let us also recognize the immense impact he had on our professional lives. As a colleague, his dedication and passion were second to none. He pushed us to strive for greatness, to believe in ourselves when doubt crept in, and to always carry ourselves with integrity. Carlton's presence in our work environment was not only a gift, but a catalyst for growth and unity.

Though today may be filled with sorrow, let us remember Carlton with joy in our hearts. Let us cherish the memories we shared with him, the laughter that lifted our spirits, and the moments that made us feel alive. In his honor, let us strive to embody the qualities he so effortlessly embodied: honesty, authenticity, and the unwavering courage to speak our minds.

As we bid our farewell to Carlton Hines, let us take solace in the knowledge that his legacy will forever shine on in our lives. Let us honor his memory by embracing life to the fullest, just as he did. May we be inspired by his vibrant spirit and find the strength to carry on, knowing that his spirit will forever watch over us.

Rest in peace, dear Carlton. You will be missed beyond measure.
