Moth Cottesloe Homes and Oasis Shellhole regrets to announce the passing of Moth Tom St Dare, a long-standing resident. He will be remembered for establishing the charity shop at Cottesloe, which originated as a series of boot sales and ultimately developed into the two wooden huts currently in use. In recognition of his dedication to this initiative, he was presented with a Certificate of Excellence on 16 July 2022. He was a true Moth.

Regrettably, he passed away following a hospital stay of nearly two months. We extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends. 

He shall not grow old as we he are left grow old

Age shall not weary him, nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun, 

and in the morning

WE WILL REMEMBER HIM

 

2 July 1946 – 16 September 2026
