Special Info |
Albert Oswyn Xavier was born on January 8, 1926 in Birchgrove St. Andrews, Grenada, the third child of Stephen and Veronica Xavier.
He developed a love for teaching early in his childhood and earned a Professional Teaching Certificate from Teacher’s Training College in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. Albert also obtained a degree in Economics from the London School of Economics. He also attended the University of the West Indies (Mona campus) where he studied Public Affairs and Business Administration.
Following that Albert spent the next ten years of his life as a Senior Mathematics Teacher at Presentation College in St. Georges, Grenada.
After leaving Presentation College Albert work as a civil servant from 1956 until 1966 with the Government of Grenada serving in various departments of government; Department of Labor, Communication and Works and External Affairs to name a few. From 1969 to 1979 he served as Editor of ‘The Torchlight’ – Grenada’s bi-weekly independent newspaper where he commented on various topics including what he believed to be disturbing changes in the political climate in Grenada. In 1979 Albert left Grenada for the United States, where he worked as an Administrative Officer at the Bank of New York, NYC.
In 1984 he was appointed Grenada Ambadassor to the United States and the organization of American states, a post he held until 1990 when he retired. Over the remaining years of his life, he served as Consultant and Advisor to a number of organizations, friends and especially his family.
On September 2, 2010 Albert left us to join our heavenly father leaving behind eight children, Pauline, Kelvin, Carol, Hilma, Brian, Michelle, Dwight, Moise; eighteen grandchildren and three great grand children. Also left to mourn his passing are sisters Thelma Phillip and Daphne Watts, brother-in-law, Carlyle Ross, several nieces and nephews and friends.

| dear xavier family,
i've read of xav's passing in new york. it is sad whenever anyone leaves us, but we all must go at sometime or other. xav had a long and fruitful life, but we will all still miss him. he served his country and his people well, proudly and honourably in many different ways, and there's nothing to be ashamed of. i knew that he was ailing but did not think that the end was so near. we will all miss him --- especially you, the family.
please accept our deepest and sincere sympathy,
