Kia Ora Sharon, Dallas, whanau and friends of Richie.
It was very sad to hear of Richie's sudden passing. We always heard Mum and Dad (Joan & John Cook) speak so highly of him as a super kind, wonderful and uplifting man, and the joy he brought to residents and staff in his role at Opunake Cottage Rest Home. Our thoughts are with you all.
Nga mihi,
The Cook whanau.
