Hi All Thanks For The Welcome
i am an Auckland born Kiwi and have a NZ Maori father and a Dutch mother who loved each other passionately till the day they both passed on to the Lord, mum was quite strong but suffered medically, i never left home supporting her all the way, after mum had a major heart attack and stroke followed by many smaller ones, i met the Niuean woman of my dreams who helped me care for mum till she passed on, then i married my Beautiful Niuean Wahine who helped me study for and get my current job as a Caregiver in a Resthome, my wife completes me Wonderfully, we are both Christian
i have personally been an active member of a St Marks Church Group since 13 Jan 1993, so in 2023 that makes 30 years spreading the Good News of Jesus in our community,
i'm also a retired DJ playing music anywhere from sports facilities, downtown high-rise buildings, clubs, and many many garages, i did weddings, theme parties, church functions, birthdays, school functions, etc, and my Niuean Wifey LOVES karaoke
these days i take things a little easier working part-time and spending time with my Awesome Niuean Wifey, we travel up and down this great country of Aotearoa and care for our residents at work. this November 2023 we Celebrate 5 Years of Blissful Marriage
