Cancer
Matarangi, Waikato
This week, our community received heartbreaking news. Hundy has been diagnosed with cancer in his liver, lungs, oesophagus, and spine. Doctors have described his case as extremely rare, and at this stage specialists cannot safely determine the full extent of the cancer until he is off blood thinners and a blood clot near an artery by his liver has passed.
Hundy is a devoted partner to his fiancée, Jaime, and a proud father to four amazing boys — Pheonix, Chevy, Mason, and Nikau. They were due to be married this October, making this devastating diagnosis even more difficult for the family. As the sole income earner, Hundy now faces not only a significant health battle but also the financial pressures that come with treatment, travel, appointments, and everyday living costs.
A much-loved member of the Mercury Bay community, Hundy has dedicated countless hours to Mercury Bay Boars Rugby League Club and Mercury Bay Rugby. He has coached the girls’ rugby team, his sons’ rugby league teams, and has always been the first to lend a hand wherever needed.
Now it’s our turn to support him.
We are raising funds to help ease the financial burden on Hundy, Jaime, Pheonix, Chevy, Mason, and Nikau during this incredibly challenging time. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help.
If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping the Parr family in your thoughts.
Together, we can help a family who has given so much to our community.

In Loving Memory of Phillip Parr (Hundy) Supporting Jaime and Their Four Boys 27 October 2026
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the sad news that our much-loved Phillip Parr (Hundy) sadly passed away, following a short but difficult battle with cancer.
Diagnosed in June, Hundy’s journey was heartbreakingly short. He leaves behind his beautiful wife, Jaime , and their four precious boys. Hundy was a much-loved husband, dad, family member and friend. Above all, he was a devoted dad to his boys and a loving husband to Jaime. Although his time with them was cut far too short, the love he gave and the memories they shared will remain forever. As Jaime and the boys navigate life without Hundy, we want to continue showing them the love and support that surrounded their family throughout his cancer journey. We are asking for your help to support Jamie and the boys with everyday living costs, including rent, groceries and bills, as Jaime focuses on caring for their boys during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation, no matter how small, will help ease some of the financial pressure and provide a little stability for their family. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page would mean just as much. Thank you to everyone who has shown this family kindness, love and generosity. It truly means more than words can express. Let’s continue to wrap Jaime and the boys in love and remind them that they are not alone.
Forever loved, forever missed, and always remembered. Rest peacefully, Hundy.
