12 February 1969 - 16 April 2025
Aged 56 years. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Shane, who died peacefully at his home in Foxton, surrounded by his much loved whanau after a sudden and short illness.
Kia hora te marino, Kia whakapapa pounamu
te moana, kia tere te Kārohirohi I mua I tōu huarahi.
May the calm be widespread,
May the ocean glisten as Greenstone,
May the shimmer of light ever dance across your pathway.
Shane will be very much missed by his parents Marie & John Hailwood, his father Edward Reid, siblings Tiana Jacqueline, Carmen, Robert & Paul. He will be especially missed by his nieces Eva & Keeley. A much loved mokopuna of Teira Hemara (dec) & Oriwa Reihana (dec). Shane will lie in state at home, 3 Johnston St, Foxton, and will then be taken to The Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, 20 Brown St, Foxton. A Private Cremation will follow at The Avenue Crematorium, 39 Avenue North Road, Levin. The family would like to thank everyone who has supported and cared for Shane.
