Soca Star Onika laid to rest On Her Birthday

Friday, December 24, 2004

Young, vivacious soca star, Onica Bostic, was yesterday cremated at the St James Crematorium following a very moving funeral service at the at St. Patricks R.C. Church in Newtown, Port-of-Spain.

On a day that was supposed to be her 25th birthday, the singer, was instead celebrated in death. Bostic sustained massive head injuries in a vehicular accident two weeks ago but held on long enough to give her family and friends a measure of hope that she might have survived.

As Father Henry Charles summed it up, In the scheme of things the longest life is too short.

Family, friends and well-wishers yesterday packed St Patrick's Church, , to bid farewell to the bright, vivacious singer who, they said, was "taken from us too soon".
Bostic's closest friends, Melissa McMillan, deliver the eulogy. An emotional Mc Millan was joined by Bostic's sister, Jancil who echoed McMillan's sentiments as she testified that Bostic had a "strong work ethic and healthy zest for life
Top soca singer, Machel Montano, paying his tribute in song, added, We will not forget you and your energy.

Earlier, before the 9 a.m. service, fans gaped, stopping in cars and on foot, to take final pictures of the white hearse that bore the final remains of the young singer.

Bostic entered the entertainment business following a short stint in radio at the age of 16 on Gem 93.5 FM. While there, she attracted the attention of Burning Flames and joined the band in 1998. She placed fourth in the National Soca Monarch Competition in 2003 with Mash It Up and eighth in the same competition this year.

Bostic also copped several road march titles in Washington, New York and Illinois for the track Get On Bad which was a collaboration with Bunji Garlin.
A large contingent of performers attending the sombre ceremony included Bunji Garlin, Fay Ann Lyons, Maximus Dan, Abbi Blackman, Ian Mc Kenzie, Brother Resistance, Iwer George, Shurwayne Winchester, Gail Ann, the Godfather Asylum and Benjai.

 
Nikki Crosby is comforted by Gail-Ann after the funeral service. Bunji Garlin is in the background.
Raymond "Ninja" Joseph weeps outside the St Patrick's Church.Joseph was the driver of the car in which Onika was seriously injured.

The good do die youn
I remember onika when she came for a show to our school in buffalo...the next day she came over to the campus radio station...she did a really good show, even though many people didn't know who she was at the time, they did enjoy her performance...she was truly beautiful... I hope that her family and friends may come together during this time to praise her...and i will never forget this...R.I.P.

Onika
Everytime i menton her name my heart breaks...but as the saying says God loved her more and took her for one of His angels. My heart bleeds for her family and friends that have to go through this time of mourning.Let's not forget the driver though "Ninja" for he himself probably feeling it worst of all. I will continue to pray for you Ninja and Onika's family. Onika you will be missed, Rest in peace and God bless you.

CLOSING OF LIFE.....OPENING OF SPIRIT!
I jus wanted to express my sympathiez to Onikaz family at dis moment, I know how hard it is to lose someone dat is very close to ur heart, I lost a dear cuzin of mine on June.08.04 and I still think about her very often. Basicly i'm jus tryna say dat Onika Bostic might be gone but she will ALWAYZ be remembered. I still remember how much adrenaline ran thru my body wen I saw her perform in Miami For Carnival, She Was BURNIN and NOBODY could stop her! She Was Too FIERCE and I LUVED every minute of it. Finally, I would like to wrap dis up by sayin R.I.P. Miss Onika Bostic...HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, and without a doubt, dis year for carnival......." ALL IS YOURZ "!
