E hotuhotu ko ngākau
E heke ko roimata
E rere ko hupe
Ko te utu o aroha ko mamae

E te whānau whānui e auē ana te Pā o Penu inanahi i te rironga atu o tō mātou kōkā aroha a Nanny Lucky (Rakiora Mahue Kino Reuben) ki te pō. He uri a ia nō Te Aitanga a Materoa, nō Ngāti Porou me Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki. He pou herenga tāngata, he kūia e tino aroha nuitia ana e te tini me te mano.

Kua mahue iho ko tāna pōtiki a Pine, āna mokopuna a Jessica rātou ko Georgia, ko Patariki, ko Nelly, ko Rhythm tae atu ki ngā mokopuna katoa o Te Kohanga Reo o Te Whānau Whānui nāna i poipoi. Ka hurihia te kei o tōna waka ki te wā kāenga, ki Penu. Nō reira e te hau kāenga, kia kaha, kia rite, karanga mai e Penu.

Kua wātea koe i ngā taumahatanga o tēnei ao Mum. Haere ki te taha o tāu mataamua a James, otirā ki a rātou mā kua wheturangihia. Haere, haere e moe i tō moenga roa.

Our beloved, Mum, Nanny, passed away peacefully on Monday morning at her son Pine’s home in Te Aroha leaving behind her son and mokopuna after living a life that touched so many people. An exemplar of love, service and commitment to her whānau, whanaunga and marae.

Mum will be returned to our marae in Makarika to lay in state before being laid to rest amongst the rest of our whānau at Te Paetahi Urupā.

Nanny Lucky will arrive at Penu at around 4pm tomorrow Tuesday 11th, where she will be until her service and burial on Thursday at 10am
