November 19, 1948 – December 31, 2024
Lamont Baswert Walcott (Trevor), 76, passed away peacefully on December 31, 2024, at Lakeridge Health Ajax Pickering. He was born on November 19, 1948, in Burnt Savannah, Westmoreland, Jamaica, to the late Lynden Wellesley Walcott and Valerie Eunice Patterson.
Lamont was a loving father, brother, uncle, and grandfather. He is survived by his two sons, Michael Leo Walcott and Radcliff Samuels; and his four grandchildren, Mykal Walcott, Mical Walcott, Malachi Walcott, and Elara Walcott. He is also survived by his six siblings: Emzie Martin, Lloyd Walcott, Clive Walcott, Lorna Walcott, Shanie Walcott, and Sharon Patterson.
Lamont was a skilled Welder and an avid Football (soccer) enthusiast. After living in Jamaica for 33 years, he immigrated to Canada in 1981 to join his family. Lamont was a religious man who dedicated his life to Rastafarianism in his early years. Despite his reserved nature, his kindness, generosity, and unwavering loyalty left a lasting impact on everyone around him.
In his later years, Lamont resided at Orchard Villa Long-Term Care Home for 22 years, where he was lovingly supported. During this time, he began attending Agape Temple Seventh-day Adventist Church and was later baptized as a Seventh-day Adventist.
