TO MEMORY TIMELINE
My friend, my team mate you were a gracious golf player with the easy swing. So sad to hear of your passing and now that big journey home. Best wishes to your Whanau and friends. Was so looking forward to seeing you at the Perth nationals next year and to that you’ll be missed in the kiwi clubs in Australia as well bro. May you rest in peace in Gisborne Paiki
You were an inspiration to our younger members of the BHP Security Team Popeye, I had only known you for about 4 months, but it felt like we've been brothers for years. I learnt more from you than I ever taught you mate, your sense of humor was second to none & you were always a pleasure to work alongside. I'm going to miss you brother. 🙏🕉

My beautiful friend, thank you for the good times we shared whist working over at Ocean Keys. I can recall so many times you literally use to scared the crap out of me for your enjoyment and then just say “what I was just standing here”. Your laugh was so contagious even if I had a bad day because of s***** customer after chatting with you I definitely had a good laugh carry on. This universe will be less bright because we lost you here. Rest in Peace my dear friend, I’ll see you over the other side one day. Fly high and get those angel wings. To Morete family my sincere condolences to you all for your loss.

We all miss you mate and the site hasn’t been the same since you left us, but will always cherish your memories forever. Miss you always my friend, until we meet again. 🙏🙏🙏
