Isabella "Bella, Belle-Belle" Giorgio Beirne

On July 14, 2026, tragically taken by an unexpected medical event while enjoying the holiday of a lifetime, on the French Riviera with her mother, aged 21 years. Much loved daughter of Hayley and Simon, adored and cherished sister of Lachie, loved granddaughter of Robin and Allan Middleton, and Lynn and Graham Beirne, and a much loved niece, cousin, and loyal friend to many. Special thanks to everyone who has provided care and support to the family, including Dr Karen Robertson who combined her compassion, friendship, and medical expertise on the ground in France when it was most needed. Messages may be addressed to: The family of the late Bella Beirne, c/- PO Box 39001, Christchurch 8545. A service to celebrate Bella’s life will be held in St Andrews College Centennial Chapel, Normans Road, Strowan, on Saturday, August 1, at 2.00pm. To truly honour Bella and her love of an excuse to dress up and make any occasion special, we invite everyone to embrace the opportunity to come dressed for a black-tie event.
