After graduating from the University of Arkansas, Bonnie began her fashion career in Dallas, Texas, working with Neiman Marcus. In 1972 she opened the first of what would become many successful clothing stores in Little Rock. Bonnie was a pioneer of women’s fashion and a respected leader in the industry, known for her vision, style, and entrepreneurial spirit.
In 1983 Bonnie met and married the love of her life, Ed Harvey. Together they shared a love of travel and spent many years exploring the world with family and friends, creating cherished memories along the way.
Bonnie’s life was grounded in a deep faith in God, which served as her compass and brought her strength, hope, and gratitude. She had a servant’s heart and continually gave to others in need, both emotionally and financially.
Bonnie’s happy place was Grand Cayman. She spent many years growing her faith at Cayman Islands Baptist Church and forming lifelong friendships there.
The family extends their deepest gratitude to both Dr. Laurence Baum and from the Jasmine Palliative & Hospice Care Dr. Lauren Goodman, Tracy and Samantha (caregivers), Marvin, Dwight, Leslie and Sharon, whose compassionate care and steady presence were a profound blessing during Bonnie’s final season.

Fay Mary Whittaker, affectionately known to many as “Nurse Fay,” passed away peacefully on 10 March 2026, in Grand Cayman, at the age of 82.

Born on 12 September 1943, in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, Fay dedicated her life to caring for others through a remarkable nursing career spanning more than six decades. Over the course of 60+ years, she served patients in various hospital departments and clinics in the UK, Ontario, and Grand Cayman, earning the respect and appreciation of colleagues and patients alike.

For the past 24 years, Fay called Grand Cayman home. During that time, she continued her lifelong commitment to nursing, working at Chrissie Tomlinson Memorial Hospital, Savannah Medical Clinic, and Grand Harbour Medical. Known to many simply as “Nurse Fay,” she brought compassion, experience, and steady care to countless people throughout her career.

Outside of her professional life, Fay enjoyed the simple pleasures that island life offered. She loved sharing a good glass of wine and lively conversation with friends and family while watching the Cayman sunset.

Fay is survived by her husband of 20 years, Mackie Whittaker. She was a devoted mother to her daughter, Meredith Bender (Brock), and her son, Zachary Staruch (Julie). She was also a proud Nana to Celia, Scarlett, and Oliver, who brought her great joy.

She was predeceased by her parents, Eva and John Watrich.

Fay will be remembered for her long life of service, her dedication to caring for others, and the warmth she shared with those around her. Her legacy lives on in the many lives she touched throughout her career and in the love of her family.

A graveside funeral service will be held at 10:00 am on 28 March 2026 at Old Man Bay Cemetery, North Side.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to her favorite Caymanian organisations: the Cayman Islands Humane Society and Jasmine Hospice & Palliative Care.

The family of Celeste Broderick (née Bush) regret to announce her passing on 3 March, following an 11-year battle with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
Celeste passed peacefully surrounded by her loved ones.
She will be remembered as a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother whose kindness and generosity touched many lives. Through her leadership spanning 27 years as Cayman Director for the Miss Cayman Islands World & Universe programmes (1985-1996) and the International Cinderella Scholarship Programme (1986-2011), she mentored and encouraged many young girls and women to grow in confidence, poise and self-belief. She took great pride in seeing many of these women flourish, later holding influential positions within the community and across professional fields both locally and internationally.
Celeste leaves to mourn her loving husband Patrick Broderick Snr.; her children Patrick Broderick Jnr., Suzanne Broderick, Michael Broderick Snr., and Nicole Broderick; 16 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren; her sister Marie Bush and family; and many dear cousins, relatives and friends.
Funeral Mass will be held on Saturday 14 March 2026 at 10:30am at St. Ignatius Catholic Church, Walkers Road, George Town, followed by interment at the Garden of Reflections Cemetery, Old Prospect Road.
In honour of Celeste, those attending are welcome to wear a touch of royal blue, her favourite colour.
Because of Celeste’s extraordinary contributions to many young women through the Miss Cayman Islands and Cinderella Pageant programmes, the family would be grateful if anyone has photographs of Celeste - particularly with the many girls and young women she mentored or hosted in Cayman - to please send them to nixbroderick@icloud.com by 12 March, so they may be included in a visual tribute.
For anyone wishing to send flowers, please liaise through Celebrations. Alternatively, in lieu of flowers, the family would be grateful for donations to the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Association of the Cayman Islands in honour of Celeste.
