A mother’s heartbreaking tribute to her young daughter has brought a community together in grief, but also in a quest for answers. The sudden death of 11-year-old Olivia Curley has left her family and friends in shock, with many questions surrounding the circumstances.
A mother’s love and loss
“My sweetheart, I will never get over you not being here anymore.” These are the heart-wrenching words of Samantha, Olivia’s mother, who took to social media to express her love and grief. Olivia, from Helensburgh, passed away at Glasgow’s Royal Hospital for Children, leaving her family devastated.
The mother’s posts reveal a growing concern for Olivia’s health, who was initially sick on Friday night. But here’s where the story takes a mysterious turn: the police are treating the death as ‘unexplained’.
A community in mourning, seeking justice
The community at Hermitage Academy, Olivia’s school, is in mourning. A parent shared the belief that the death might be drugs-related, a tragic and controversial possibility. Ms. Curley’s statement that ‘justice will be done’ and that some people are responsible for Olivia’s death adds a layer of complexity to the case.
The school sent a letter to parents, describing Olivia as a cherished member of their community. An online fundraiser, organized by a family friend, aims to provide a fitting farewell for the young girl, remembering her bright and loving soul.
Local politician Jackie Baillie expressed her condolences and emphasized the need for answers. But the question remains: what happened to Olivia? Argyll and Bute Council is offering support to the family and school staff and pupils, ensuring they are not alone in their grief and search for understanding.
As the investigation continues, the community awaits answers, hoping for closure and justice for Olivia’s memory. This tragic story highlights the fragility of life and the importance of seeking the truth, even when it may be difficult to uncover.
