Ka riro nei ko te rangatira makoha nui o Te Whakatōhea, ka riro nei ko te takere nunui o Mātaatua waka. Ko te māhuri tōtara o te waonui a Tāne tēnei ka taka, tē tū kaurera anō.  

He hoa taupiri, he makau, he tamariki, he whānau ka mahue mai nei. Mā hea rawa e mauru ake ai te mamae e ngau kino nei i te tārāuma? 

He tangi i tawhiti, he auere i tata, he rongo i auhi ai te motu e.
Auē taukuri e!
 

E te iwi, e whai ake nei ko ngā whakaritenga o te hui mate o Ricky-Lee Tapuni Mitai.

Here are the details for the motu regarding the hui mate for our beloved mokopuna, Ricky-Lee Tapuni Mitai. We extend our heartfelt condolences and aroha to the whānau, hapū, and iwi. Our Kōhanga Reo whānau and kaupapa have lost a cherished Papa, husband, brother, and teacher.

Gone too soon e hoa, kia tau ngā manaakitanga ki runga i tō hoa rangatira me āu tamariki, otira te whānau whānui.

Ka takoto a Ricky ki Terere Marae, 50a Terere Pa Road, Opotiki 3197.
