Bill Charlton-Remembered
The untimely passing of the late Bill Charlton left a void in the lives of those
who were privileged to know him, especially his wife Maureen, brothers in law,
cousins, nephews and many friends.
In my role as Principal of
Carrignafoy Community
College, I was delighted over
many years to receive from Bill
practical support and guidance
for the musical interlude at our
Annual Awards Ceremony.
Bill was always giving and
provided many of our students
an opportunity to shine out at
the awards night using the
keyboard and musical scores
which enhanced our night.
Recently, his wife Maureen,
contacted me with an offer of
Bill’s keyboard for use in our
college so that other students
might benefit from the legacy
left by Bill. This was a very generous gesture and is gratefully received. Music
inspires us all in ways that no other experience can match and so in using the
keyboard, the memory of Bill lives on.
One of our students Ray Rossau, is pictured practising on the keyboard today
and so we say to Maureen-Thank you for such a kind thought!
