5 August 1949 – 4 June 2025
E te Iwi kua ngū te manu whakakata, whakateka o Te Waimako. Kua hinga te pou pupuri I te mana o Tūhoe, Te ringa rehe, te pākaiahi O Te Waikaukau Tō tau Pāpā koroua Te Dana (Lance) Winitana Rurehe Koia te whakaruruhau o tātau whanau kua riro. Ka hoki atu ia ki Te Waimako hai te ahiahi nei. Ā, Ka nehua ia ki te kōpu o Papatuānuku hai te Hatarei Nō reira haere atu rā e te papa Ki huinga o te kahurangi Ki tō hoa Rangatira kia Auntie Zoe e tatari mai na, kia Koro Ivan mā, Ki ō mātua Tīpuna haere oti atu kautou e. We are very saddened to let everyone know of the passing of our dear Pāpā, Koro, Brother and cheeky as Uncle Dana. He passed peacefully last night with his family around him. He will return to the Waimako today until the nehu on Saturday at 11am, ma te hāhi ringatu. We will miss your cheeky humour and smile. Tena koutou katoa

Nāu i ua ai te rangi ki tōku whare ināpō. Haere e pā haere ki tua o te ārai, ka mokemoke mātou i ō kōrero whakatoi i Waikato, Āe rā, he kata noa iho, me āu hangarau auaha hoki…kāore pea. Moe mai i tō moe roa.
