Rangi, you told me that this time is a time to remember, to look back and to look forward and to prepare for the coming New Year, it is also a time for peace and reflection. Therefore, under the practices of our ancestors, it is right that we look back to the previous year and to remember those who have left us, those whose names were spoken by my sister Kiritapu there, the mother of Willie, Sir Harawira Gardiner, and Moana are some of those who have passed on. It is an appropriate time under our customary practice to think about and remember them, and so let the dead be with the dead and let the living be with the living, greetings one and all.]
