Kia ora Amanda we have just received the news through your letter of Peter's passing. Both Vicki and I are deeply shocked and sadden to hear this news. Peter was a friend of Vicki's father John Nathan through Auckland Marist Rugby and his pleasant and professional relationship with us will be missed. We hope you are doing ok and that you and the family will find peace. Ki a Peter, me takoto marie i roto i te puku o Ranginui. Hei te wa inaianei.

Hori was my first trainer - way ahead of his time - and helped all us young players with their conditioning, when weight training for rugby was in its infancy.Sessions at the YMCA were brilliant. You helped so many young people and had huge respect from us all. Huge knowledge with a huge smile and plenty of laughter. Hori you were The Best ! Ka kite.. Bryce Bevin
