Tributes

When I found out that you had left us. I was extremely sad. But at the same time, I was happy because I knew how much pain you have been in for many years. You are one of the strongest people I've ever met and your smile always lights up the room. You will be missed and I will always remember and cherish our conversations. I love you, Aunty always and forever. xo

I wish I could have told you I wasn't ready for you to go, But you have already departed And my heart is feeling low. I'll miss the sound of your voice Your laughter and the "HIGHS", The loving and the caring That was always in your eyes. But most of all I'll miss The way you made me feel, A part of your family With a love so strong and real. I want you to know I love you And my heart aches with sadness and grief, I'm not going to say goodbye, I'll just wish you eternal peace. Nga mihiarohanui darling FLY HIGH ❤️🫂❤
