Many thanks to the caregivers at Rotorua Community Hospice, Dr Lucinda Cheeseman, medical staff at Rotorua Hospital and special mention to John and Raina Treanor for supporting Brian and whanau through his long battle with illness. We also wish to thank our extended whanau and friends for the koha we recieved, the many stories that were shared and the farewell Brian was given as he continues on to his next journey. No reira, e nga Koko, moe mai, moe mai, moe mai ra.
