Fond memories of countless holidays in Raglan, with uncle Joe and Aunty George. Had the best times with my cousins. Aunty had a good way of making you listen, with a good old fashion twist of the taringas, worked every time. And everyone thought I got cauli flower ears from football lol. Was the best time of my life., a beautiful God fearing servant. I know Mum (orapai) has been waiting for her sis in heaven. Arohanui. Xx

Kia ora e te whanau
Ka nui te aroha

My greatest memory was the camps and the house in Raglan on the hill.
The camps because it brought us young cousins especially me, Michelle, Jeff, Hemi and Villiami. Being leaders, running activies, looking after kids, going swimming at thd beach and of cause learning scripture. This time together was really special but didn´t realize just how special until I got older.
Sleeping outside on the ground at the house looking at the stars and getting scared later on in the night and going back in the house.
Thank you so much nanny george for those memories and lessons. Thank you for the time you gave us but most of all thank you for your faith in god and teaching us about him.
Moemoea e kuia.
