10th October 2023, conversation with my Mum, Mary and Alan came up in the conversation. I have nice memories at their place with the pool and rope from the tree! Pool table room, nice food, kindest human beings I was 5years old at the time. Mum telling me Lovely stories how Mary and Alan helped them in so many ways and a blessing to have known Mary and Alan. She spoke of the 3 boys . Mum wish to see both of youse and boys one more time. So, I randomly did a search. I just found this! I am Maafua, daughter of Tina Feulufai. Mum is still at st Albans in Palmerston North. Did someone asked if Mum was still at st Albans four years ago? The message was not delivered properly and didn't know who was looking for her. Mum is crying her eyes out now.
Mum is 75 now Dad 70 and still live at 26 Colombo st, PN.

I think I bumped into one of the boys at Albert St medical centre one time in my early 20s. Have no idea how I recognise him or he recognised me.

I know it been four years, we are sad of Mary passing our late condolences to you all.

I hope this sends well

Alan, I was very saddened to receive the call from Audrey, advising of Mary's passing. A lovely soft spoken auntie who I have fond memories of. Sorry I am not able to come down to Te Anau to spend time with family as a close friend also passed earlier this week and I have a conflict. It is reassuring this was sudden and my thoughts are with you, Roger, Geoff and Mike at this time. Take care.
