#highlightseveryoneHere's the updated notice with the added details:
"Dear Friends of Glenys,
You are warmly invited to join us for a special day of remembrance and celebration.
On Thursday, 27 June, we will be holding an interment service for Glenys at Kutaroa Ahipuhipuhi Urupa, Matakana Island. Barge departs Omokoroa at 1 pm and returns 3:30 pm or next morning.
Following the service, we will gather for light refreshments, and then we will see visitors off to the Wharf to descend by barge back to Omokoroa/Mainland. We, the whānau, will remain on the island to continue celebrating Nga Uri O Te Rongo and Teiaro Taikato Reunion, honoring our beloved Dad, his siblings, and all the moko (grandchildren). This special occasion also marks Matariki te Tau Hou, the Maori New Year.
If you would like to attend the service for Glenys or have any queries please send a message to Rhea Taikato or TiiaNa Taiikato via Facebook, Messenger or phone to RSVP and arrange for a koha (offering) to support the event. Your presence and contributions will be greatly appreciated.
Please note the barge timetable:
- Departing Omokoroa: 1 pm
- Returning to Omokoroa: 3:30 pm
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Please be mindful of the strict barge timetable on Thursday as it will be very busy with Locals and Visitors going on and off Matakana Island for Matariki Weekend as the barge will not be operating at all during the weekend.
We also ask you to use Discernment and prepare for your travels safely and accordingly �
If you cannot make it we totally understand and appreciate the presence you had and shared in Glenys's life �
We, The Whanau. Look forward to sharing this meaningful day with you.
Nga mihi mahana (warm regards)"
Rhea and The Taikato Whanau x
