Our whānau: important dates to remember
Nau mai, haere mai
This special space where we honour and celebrate the significant dates of our beloved whānau.
Here, we remember, rejoice, and share the moments that shape our family story.
Remembering Robert Lui Clarke
Robert Lui Clarke's journey began on 5 March 1942, a sunrise that brought much joy to our family. He shared 57 wonderful years of marriage with Mārata Veronica Hape, a union that began on 27 October 1962. His sunset arrived on 11 January 2019, at the age of 76. We cherish these dates as significant milestones in his life, reflecting a legacy of love and family. We encourage all whānau to add their own memories and stories associated with these dates.
Celebrating David Higbee Clarke
David Higbee Clarke graced our lives with his sunrise on 16 March 1963. He has been dearly missed when he graduated to his sunset on 12 September 2025, at the age of 62. These dates mark the precious time we have shared and will continue to hold in our hearts. Join us in celebrating David's life and the joy he brought to our whānau by sharing your own cherished memories and stories.
