I was only little when i lived in Manaia and your family owned the fruit shop.
I lived with my grandparents Len and Rita Rei and my uncles and aunties went through school with Anita and Mukesh.
This is such sad news to hear and on behalf of our family I send sincere condolences to the whole family.

So sad to read of Nanu's passing, sending our deepest condolences to Mrs Chhika, Mukesh and Anita. We would go to their green grocers all the time, he would often give us fruit to try, such a lovely family whom we were just speaking of the other day. Rest in Peace Nanu from the Hohaia Family.
