In loving memory of Mereana Aniwa Muriwai (Pearce) (2004–2025).

Mereana touched the hearts of everyone who knew her with her warmth, kindness, and spirit. Though her time with us was far too short, her love, laughter, and light will never be forgotten.

She leaves behind her loving husband and family, who will carry on her legacy with the love and strength she inspired in all of them.

We are deeply grateful to Hospice Waikato for their compassionate care and support during her final days.

A celebration of Mereana’s life will be held on Thursday, 20 November at 11am at Simply Funerals, 449 Te Rapa Road, Hamilton. Friends and whānau are warmly welcome.

For those unable to attend, the service can be watched live here: https://www.simplyfunerals.co.nz/s/mereana
