Kia Ora,

This image represents the love and haerenga of my mama and the matriarch of our whanau.

We gathered together for her last weeks with us and my father and I cared for her at home until her journey from physical to spiritual occurred.

We opened our home for all her 12 great moko, 16 moko and 6 other tamariki to come and share Kai, time and love with her.

We had daily karakia, waiata and cared for her all ourselves it was a hard yet privileged journey to be a part of something I hold dear to my heart and that has taught my tamariki what the true meaning of Aroha ki tangata means and that whanau are the most precious relationships to nurture and care for the ones that gave us life 🤍

In memory of our beautiful Matriarch
