Ani Johnstone Memoriam

JOHNSTONE, Ani Eramiha (nee Poa). 26 December 1919 - 30 October 2009 E kore noa ngaa whakairo mahara Ariki e puta ora noa atu I tenei kupu oha Engari ka kakaa noa ake I roto I eenei mihinga Ehara nei ma te toka miri koraha a te waa. Taa te parekura he tiiraha take moumou tonu. Rutua ake I te whenua ngaa koohatu whakairo. E kore anoo hoki e mate te werokume, te mura ahi Teeraa ka mau puu I te hinengaro. Not marble nor the gilded monuments Of princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme; But you shall shine more bright in these contents. Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time. When wasteful war shall statues overturn And broils root out the work of masonry Nor Mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall burn The living record of your memory. -Shakespeare's Love Sonnet 55 Aroha tino nui, Na te whanau.
