Passing of Beth Wilson

Dear Residents,

Our Currigee community will be further saddened to learn that Beth Wilson passed away at her home in Ascot this morning. She and Blair build their home on the island more than 50 years ago and over this period thousands of guests have been warmly welcomed by Wilson hospitality. As was her custom every year, Beth spent this past Christmas and New Year at the island, and was present at the awards ceremony on New Year’s Day to proudly accept the Currigee Cup! She left the island only last Friday. Our best wishes to the Wilson Clan in the loss of this extraordinary person

 

Kind regards,

Passing of Charles Roe

Dear Residents,

Our community will be sad to learn that Currigee resident Dr Charles Roe passed away on Tuesday  afternoon (15/01/19). He had been suffering from a short illness and was moved to a mainland hospital. Charles’ life was intertwined with his experiences at Currigee many of which were captured in his book. He has lived at the island permanently for many years, right up until recent weeks. Charles was due to celebrate his 100th Birthday on February 14th.

Our thoughts are with Charles’ family and friends at this time.

 

Kind regards,

The Committee
