Thank you for everything you have done for Nana, for Dad and for us. I'm glad we could be there today to help send you off, in a blaze of hair 😆, Love you.

Descendant of many rangatira here on the southern slopes of our maunga. Of Tanewai of Tipaia, descendant of Aotea Waka of Ruaputahanga. Of Tiromoana, descendant of Korauraumouku, of Rangiwhaiao. Descendant of Turuturu Mokai, of Nihera of John Minihinnick. Descendant of Te Ua Haumene, of Titokowaru of our Maunga. Rire rire hau, pai mārire.
