Graeme REIRI Obituary
REIRI, Graeme. - Hinekura and family wish to sincerely thank all for the wonderful support given during his time of passing. There are so many people who contributed to the caring and wellbeing of Graeme during the past few months. Words could not explain the admiration my family and I have gained throughout this experience. His last days with us gave opportunities to share experiences and stories that reminded us of his quick wit, his humour, his boldness, and also his humbleness, which was often tested. To all family and friends who travelled near and far, love to you all with a huge thank you. A special mention goes to Whaiti and Kath, Aunty Hine, Deb, Gloria and Barry for taking care of everyone at the house and the marae. Much love and appreciation to Mana, Bop and Tracey for the loyalty and companionship you each provided, he always felt safe with you. We appreciated all the heartfelt cards, flowers, kai and koha, please accept this as a personal acknowledgement as many addresses are unknown.
