Support for the Vailea and Extended Family After Tragic Loss

On July 15th, a devastating accident on Masters Road in Waiuku took the lives of Frances Latu‑Vailea, her beautiful 5-year-old daughter Oneahi, and her beloved niece Marly.

This tragedy has left Frances’s husband, Amanaki, suddenly widowed and the sole caregiver to their three sons: Willis (just 8 weeks old), Samasoni (almost 2), and Tuini (12 years old).

We are raising funds to support both grieving families during this unthinkable time. Your generous donations will help:

Give Amanaki time to grieve without the burden of immediate financial pressures such as the mortgage and household bills.

Provide essential support as he navigates caring for their young boys and processing such an unimaginable loss.

Support Marly’s family, who are also mourning deeply while caring for their own young baby and facing the pain of losing Marly, Frances, and Oneahi.

No words can ease the pain, but your kindness and support can help lighten the heavy load these families are carrying right now.

Any contribution, big or small, will make a difference.

Thank you for your love and support during this time.
