Former Member Joe Beath has passed away
The following post was seen on Facebook:
th
"It is with great sorrow to share with you that overnight (17 June 2025) Joe lost his battle
with cancer that his body has been fighting since diagnosis late last year. Unfortunately, the
treatment that commenced on New Years Eve, was ineffectual against this onerous disease.
Many of you were unaware of his illness, as until just over a week ago, we still had hope that
he could be cured. Not to be, but now he is no longer in pain. I have some family with me,
and though your condolences are appreciated, we ask that you respect our private sorrow for
the time being. ??? Thank you.
Deidre Beath"
Both Dee and Joe have a long and distinguished Rotary history, holding many important
roles within other clubs and at District level. Please see below an excerpt from Joe's 2021
Bio. They joined our club in July 2021 but due to Joe's deteriorating health, made the tough
decision a couple of years ago to resign when Joe was diagnosed with another debilitating
condition. They were an energetic and friendly couple and we were sorry to see them go but
fully understood the reasons why they made that decision. On behalf of the club I have
written to Dee to express our condolences on the passing of Joe.
