Tēnā koutou katoa, me te tangi atu ki a rātou kua ngaro ki te pō. He pānui aituā tēnei. Greetings to you all and acknowledging those who have been lost to the “night”. We are the bearer of sad news.
This afternoon our Fire and Emergency USAR Team retrieved the body they had located in the Muriwai landslide. It is with great sadness that we confirm that it is our missing firefighter from the Muriwai Volunteer Fire Brigade.
Our heart goes out to his family and to his friends and colleagues in the brigade. His death is being felt by our Fire and Emergency whānau right across the country.
Flags will be flown at half mast on all fire stations to acknowledge our firefighter’s death.
We are working closely with Police as they lead the formal procedures that are required when someone dies in these circumstances.
Fire and Emergency respects the family’s wishes that we do not confirm the name of our fallen firefighter at this time.
Nōreira e te rangatira, haere ki o tūpuna. Moe mai, moe mai, moe mai rā. We bid you farewell great chief, as you journey to your ancestors. Rest In Peace.
Onehunga station extends its deepest sympathies to the Muriwai brigade and community. We and the wider brigade stands with you at this time and will endeavour to support efforts in any way possible.
