This letter was sent to Boxing Daily from the 19 year old daughter of the late Trevor Berbick, Anita Berbick.
I just wanted to let those that care, know that my father will be laid to eternal rest this saturday in
Jamaica.
I hope to be able to illuminate his life on trevorberbick.org in the weeks and months ahead.
Right now, the family is still grieving - but soon we should have some photo’s and other personal information never before seen by the general public/boxing community. I do hope it comes out well, as we don’t have much in the way of professional assistance and/or funding to do the things we’d like, to tribute my father.
Again, to those that have shown gratitude, respect or admiration for my dad when he was “World Champ”, and were also inclined to forgive him for the shortcomings the exhibited thereafter - I wish to express my sincerest praise.
On behalf of myself & the family, a very heartfelt thankyou goes out to all that understood Trevor Berbick as, “the man, loving father & compassionate friend” that he was.
God Bless
Anita Berbick
We also would like to pass on Anita’s thanks to Mr. Fritz Zivic from EVERLAST for the donation of a boxing robe and other articles for her father’s funeral.
A biography of Trevor Berbick’s boxing career will be published shortly on Boxing Daily.
