Jacob TAMATI Obituary

TAMATI, Jacob Te Kore:
To all the people who attended and assisted during Jacob's funeral, we'd like to thank you all for your relentless support at this sad time. To all fellow workers at Sealords, Talleys, Sanfords, Skeggs for flying the flags at half mast, on October 14, 2019. Also to Jim and Tainui for their transportation of Jake around the Nelson and Marlborough areas, right up to Tokoroa, approx 1600km in total.
- Many thanks, Uncle Sonny
Te Umu Ki Whakatane McLean, Nelson Kawatiri Railway Oven.
Kia Ora family, friends and my neighbours. Such a heartfelt thank you to you all for your love and kindness through this incredibly tough time. Jake would have been just so humbled by those who paid their respects either at home at Lillybrook, in Nelson or at the chapel and Tokoroa.
Jake, you've now come full circle in this journey called life, you've loved, you've travelled, you've had experiences beyond most....but for the most part you've been a deep sea fisherman bringing many young ones through the ranks and you've built the respect of the entire fishing industry world wide.
To me your love will live on within those you inspired.....
Kia Kaha Te Haere
Tracy Green, Farmer, Waihopai Valley, Marlborough
