What a journey!  20 May 2025

Hey friends, Steve here. Firstly I'd like to thank all those on this page for your kindness and support, that also goes to those that have supported me away from this platform.🙏 This experience has been both humbling and overwhelming. I'd especially like to thank Aroha for setting up this page on the day. Let me tell you, fire is so final, such a loss! I'm just working through it all, it's a process at this point. This property has so much Whanganui history attached to it. I'd like to rebuild it so that will remain, it's apart of me, it's apart of Whanganui! Once again, from me, thank you 🙏. God bless.
