Leslie Clifford Lyn, formerly of Pembroke Pines, Florida, and Mandeville, Jamaica, passed away peacefully on March 15, 2026 leaving behind a profound legacy of family and hard work. He was born on July 2nd, 1924 in Brompton in the Parish of St. Elizabeth, Jamaica to Agnes Lawson and Vincent Lyn.
A dedicated professional, Leslie spent his career contributing his talents initially as an independent businessman before joining Kaiser Bauxite Company at its start up in Nain, St. Elizabeth and later transitioned to Alumina Partners Jamaica Limited (Alpart). He had a long and successful career driven by a belief in generosity, responsibility, fairness to others and being always thankful.
While he was respected for his career success, his greatest love and pride was his family. He is survived by his beloved wife of 67 years Edna (nee Nation) and by his devoted children Verona (Bill), Paulette (Peter), Wayne (Linda), Sharon (Edward), and Patrick (Craig).
Leslie’s influence spans generations, living on through his 11 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. He will be remembered for his strength, his wit, his pride in his Jamaican-Chinese roots, and the deep love he held for his expansive family.

Hi Aunt Edna and family,
We are so sorry to hear about Uncle Les. Please know that you’re all in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. He was such a special person, and we hope you can find comfort in all the wonderful memories you shared together.
One verse that always brings peace in times like this is: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” (Psalm 34:18). I hope it reminds you that you’re not alone and that God’s presence is near, especially now.
Sending you all our love and strength. With love,
Owen, Odette, Petegaye, Cesar, Tristan, Claudette
