Gui Vezzaro - 1966-2010

We have been informed by Chris Binge (school Principal) and Chris Forse (past Assistant Principal), that much loved maths teacher and Head of Nansen House, Gui Vezzaro, passed away on the evening of Monday 29th November.

As you may have known he has been in a precarious position between life and death since his heart attack in August. While there were signs of improvement in some aspects of his status, he was always very open to the damage an infection can cause. This danger arose in the last few days and he succumbed eventually to pneumonia

Chris commented: "Gui was a magnificent teacher and carer, and one of our greatest characters, who served two ESF schools, South and Island, with distinction.

More information including the planned memorial celebration in Hong Kong on Thursday as well as a fund set up in Gui's name can be found here. There is also a Facebook tribute page

UPDATE - The memorial in celebration of Gui will be streamed live on Thursday at 14:00 (HKT), 07:00 (GMT) here.

I was so sad to hear of Guy being ill and to learn of his passing away. I wish I could be there to come to the memorial, and I will watch the stream and be thinking of everyone there. I remember Guy's great sense of fun and humour, as well as his great enthusiasm and energy. He was such a committed teacher and clearly loved his job. He is in my thoughts and prayers. Marion Suarez
