However, they are deeply saddened that he’s not around to celebrate this great achievement.
“This is a bitter-sweet moment for my family. We’re very happy that our patriarch has won his second Grammy Award. My father was a phenomenal gift to this world and we’re happy that he was able to touch the hearts of so many people with his music and we’re very grateful that he has won another Grammy Award. I just wish he was here to enjoy it with us,” said his daughter Leba Hibbert.
She added, “On behalf of my mother Mrs Doreen Hibbert and the rest of the family, I want to thank all the people who have supported my father’s music throughout the years. I also want to thank the members of his band, Zack Starkey, Sshh and Trojan Jamaica, Cameron Husty, Sly Dunbar, Cyril Neville, Jo Murray, Eric Gardiner, Hartwig and everyone at BMG Rights, Eric Baker, Adam, Rob and Larry at Primary Wave.”
