RIP my friend. You may be gone but I will never ever forget you. Thank you so so much for keeping me sain although I don't think you ever knew just how much of a difference you made to my life. I am so missing talking to you and as I said to you I'm sure our paths will cross at some stage so this is not goodbye but see you on the other side some day. Take care up there xx

Our hearts go out to Stevie, Hunter and family also Colleen, Greg, Carl and Ryan. Such a beautiful young man taken way too soon. There are no words we can say to make your pain any less. Love to you all.

When I first met Stevie in Europe she would not stop mentioning her boyfriend Josh. Then when I met Josh, I saw why. Josh was the first and only Maori person I have ever met. He had such presence, an infectious happy personality and so polite for such a big guy! As a last minute trip to Auckland I remember Josh going out of his way to grill me up some real kiwi food. I've always felt like the American part of the Porter family and am shocked, overcome, overwhelmed...devastated. I will miss but always remember my Maori friend. Rest in peace Josh.
