To a great man, Wynn, who reached so many in ways that lead to a lifetime of learning. The amazing way his passion for music wove its way into so many lives, who shared his mentoring skills to help and develop us all. He was the for Maori by Maori man. He had expectations! You never wanted to get it wrong 😑 but he cared, he wanted the best for you and yours. It’s with a very heavy heart that I wish you eternity in the heavens of music. Gone too soon! Thank you 💜 you will be forever held dear💜
