E Poppy, kua koruruki, kua pōkēao ō kāinga o Tangoio, o Kohupātiki i tō hurumutunga, i te moe tē ara ake anō. Ahakoa māuiui koe, i hauora tonu koe, i mātātoa tonu koe. I whawhai koe i te whawhai nui, ā, i miharo te katoa i tēnei āhua ōhau. Nō nā noa ake nei koe i tautoko i tō whare tipuna kia whakatikaina a Hine-te-iwaiwa ahakoa te taumahatanga. He wahine māia, he wahine manawanui, he wahine marae koe. Tukuna mātau kia tangihia koe kia whakamānawatia koe. E moe e kare i runga i te arohanui o tō whānau, i roto hoki i te waikanaetanga o Mirumiru te pō.

It is with deep remorse we inform our whānau the passing of the beautiful Poppy Taylor.

She will lay at her whare tonight then travels to Kohupātiki Marae tomorrow – Wednesday 9am. 

The Nehu will be held on Thursday at 11am 

Ngā mihi e te whānau, ka aroha
