THEFT of EVERYTHING at Pakowhai survivor's house. Been able to add a photo now...3 April.

Raewyn from Westshore

Ross Cocking lost everything at his Pakowhai home and business in the cyclone and today discovered thieves have broken in to the locked up shell of the house and stolen his Hot Rod shell, dwarf car trailer, trail bike, compressor and many other things he's spent thousands to replace in the past year.

Anyone seeing anything on the corner of Hodgson Road and Pakowhai Road in the past 10 days please contact us on 021 261 0266 - the Police have been notified today when Ross discovered everything gone today

Please keep an eye out for anything as friends have spent hours water blasting in order to get things back to some semblance of working and he had dreams of having it done up with a small inheritance his Mother left him, and the light at the end of the tunnel for him. This was/is so cruel, and so typical of what's happening to survivors.

Ross Cocking.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
