In Loving Memory Brenda Pikiteora Tewaa Rangitakatu Hart Inu
Helping our family honour and farewell our beloved mum with love, faith, and dignity.
Auckland
On Sunday, 21 December 2025, our beloved mum passed away peacefully.
She loved the Lord and faithfully attended Equipers Church Auckland City for many years. She was a proud and cherished member of the Deaf community, where she found belonging, strength, and connection. Mum was also an avid swimmer at Mt Albert Aquatic Centre, a place she loved deeply and where she found peace, joy, and freedom in the water. She carried her whakapapa with pride as part of Ngāti Tūwharetoa, living a life grounded in faith, resilience, and aroha. As we prepare to farewell her, we humbly ask for koha / fa’alavelave to help with funeral expenses. Any support — donations, prayers, or sharing — is deeply appreciated.
Haere rā e te whaea aroha.
Fa’afetai tele lava / Ngā mihi nui
