Condolences from Rotary Sunrise
Submitted by President Kim
Fellow Rotarians,
It is with great sadness that I announce that past fellow Sunrise Rotarian James Chiweshe passed away Saturday afternoon after he collapsed while shopping at a supermarket in Kingston, Jamiaca. I received notification late Sunday night from both Mark Macfee as James worked with Caribbean Publishing Company and President Allison of the Rotary Club of Kingston, Jamaica. James was an active Rotarian in Kingston and a incoming Foundation Director.
A number of Sunriser Rotarians had the opportunity to visit with him a few weeks ago at the District Conference in Montego Bay which makes this an even more shocking event. James was a member of Rotary Sunrise from 2008 - 2013 and served as treasurer of the club and was active in the Cayman Islands community. James was originally from Zimbabwe.
Our deepest condolences go out to his wife Agnes and his family during this difficult time.
May his soul rest in peace.
President Kim
