His death leaves a void among those running numerous community organisations and clubs. Waipā deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk described him as “incredibly passionate about advocating on behalf of his community” and said the impression he leaves will be long lasting.
The funeral service was held as The News was going to print and coverage will appear in next week’s paper.
