Dr Clive Mcknight

11 november 1955 - 29 mei 2021

Clive Mcknight made his grand entrance into this world on November 11th 1955. He was the fourth begotten child out of seven siblings from his parents Semper and Venita Mcknight (deceased). He was always a loving, daring and physically strong person. From early childhood, he showed signs of integrity. One memory that comes to mind was, when his mother left the house to run errands, his siblings would take milk and sugar from the kitchen but they could not let him know. No matter what promises they made to him in order for him to keep the secret, he would still report what they did wrong when their mother returned. He was a brilliant child and always had a passion for intellectual pursuits. Clive had a lot of hobbies whilst growing up. He was an excellent athlete, a good batsman, and a footballer. He sometimes coached the young men in the community on the Boos Community Ground. He also loved going to the garden, a trait he would have taken up from his father.Clive loved music and would sometimes set up his speakers and play music as a means of encouraging his community. He would always encourage persons in music ministry. Of his many hobbies he also enjoyed reading and studying health. He was able to bring one of his many dreams to reality in his retirement years graduating with a Doctor’s of Naturopathy in Original Medicine from the International Institute of Original Medicine in January 2020. In August 1974 he turned a new page. He was baptized in Pastor Maitland's crusade into the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He became a dynamic evangelist under his mentor, Pastor Mitchell and went on to baptize his three siblings: Gwendolyn, Ann and Frederick in one of his crusades. In 1982, he married the love of his life Koontie Bella Garib out of which they bore four offsprings, three daughters Michelle, Kieshelle and Christelle and one son Michael. They were his pride and joy. He was also the grandfather of four boys whom he deeply loved. His hobbies were caring for his dogs and agriculture just to name a few. Clive was also an entrepreneur, he was a maxi taxi driver North/South for many years and transported school children for PTSC service before venturing into his herbal shop. He spent most of his working years at the Ministry of Agriculture and at his retirement he served as a Director on the Board of directors of the Land Settlement Agency. He was an effective community leader organizing football leagues, sport's days and even independence parades.He could fit in easily wherever he went and always tried to help. He was a person known and well-loved in the community. He served as the first elder for the Boos/Ecclesville S.D.A Church for many years up until the time of his death. Clive partially funded his campaigns, keeping many crusades all over Trinidad. He went on to become a medical missionary where he served many individuals in Trinidad and Tobago and by extension parts of the Caribbean. The last year of his life was spent lecturing and presenting sermons and health messages to his community three times a week even until the day of his death. May he sleep in Jesus until His return.

    Cousin Clive as my girls and I used to call him will always be remembered by my family. Every free time Derek would have you would sure to find him upstairs at the herbal shop with him talking from an abundance of topics. Sometimes I would tell him jokingly that Clive sees him more than me. When I would visit ever so often I would be sure to leave with an orange or mango and that was given to me for me to remember to send sweet bread or cake for him the next time Derek would visit. Derek and I was fortunate to spend his last birthday with him and we would always remember that evening. The last time I spoke to him was the day the country was told that every where are to be closed. We chatted for about half and hour before we parted ways. I will miss you calling out to me as I pass shouting "way yuh husband ah calling him" or "way meh sweetbread girl" hmmmmmmm life eh. These are just a few of the moments that we shared with him and they will always be remembered. Rest in peace cousin Clive you did great.
