He hōnore he korōria ki te Ātua
He maungārongo ki te whenua
He whakaaro pai ki ngā tāngata kātoa.
Ka tangi te ngākau i te wehenga o māmā.
Ka harikoa i te hononga ki a pāpā.
Moe mai rā e te māreikura.

The world has lost a very loving, caring, giving Wahine, who will be remembered for her generosity of spirit, kindness of heat & mothering care. My heart & though’s are with you all.
Aunty Jenny was such a warm and wonderful person. She made time for everyone and made everyone feel included. I spent time with her over, what seemed like, endless Summers when I was young. Dad and Uncle Witi would solve the world's problems in the sitting room and Aunt would take us to the beach or to the garden and we'd have the best time ever. She was ever my hair guru, and would give me tips, and trims, right up til she retired. So kind, so caring and will be so missed.
