He po, he po, he ao, he ao, takiri mai ko te ata
Korihi te manu ka ao, ka ao, ka awatea

It is with much sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Rikki Norman Bryant. Adored husband of Mahuripounamu (Missy) Bryant (née Neha) and beloved father of Kylie, Stacey, the late Michael and Jarrod. Treasured son of Fred and Shirley Bryant (née Pratt) and brother to Tina, Bernardine, Michele, Fiona and Janine. Much loved son to Jack and Hine Neha and brother to Jack (Jr), Steve, Robert, Edward, Emily and Brendon.
Rikki was a man dedicated to his whanau, his community, his softball and rugby. A huge man that cast a long shadow who will be sorely missed.
Rikki will lie at home 6 Sandringham Rd, Enderley. Rikki's last service will be held at 11 am on Friday 7 January 2022 and will then start his last journey to Te Kotahitanga Marae in Otorohanga where he will be interred at 2 pm.
No reira e te rangatira, haere ki o tipuna, haere ki to Tama, haere ki to moengaroa, okioki ai.
