Mother of Cmi director passes away
Brother Chris Wills, the director of the Secretariat of Collaboration for Mission, International (Cmi) received news on Sept. 29 that his mother, aged 93, passed away in Newcastle, Australia.
Sheila Wills, who lived 28 years longer than her husband, had been receiving palliative care for some time.
Chris said goodbye to her before leaving home some months ago when it was clear that she was failing.
“Our deepest sympathies to Chris, his three sisters and brother, on the loss of their mother,” stated superior general Brother Emili Turú, expressing the affection of all Marists of Champagnat.
