Helping the Karena Whanau during the sad time of Amelia's passing.

Manawatu / Whanganui

Amelia was one of a kind - a really lovely lady, full of smiles and hugs.

She lived in Woodville with Rose Karena and whanau until she sadly passed away on Sunday evening (26th April) aged 57.

Amelia loved to get out and about - always keen to go for a ride somewhere rather than sit at home. She loved being around the Kohanga tamariki (and they loved her right back), and enjoyed colouring in, building things with blocks, and being in the sandpit.

She was a special lady who will be very fondly remembered by many.

This page is to raise money to assist the Karena Whanau with funeral expenses, as due to covid-19 and lockdown restrictions there will be more costs than expected.

Rose and whanau have always given so much to so many, now is our time to give back what we can to ease their burden at this tough time.
