In Loving Memory of Savita Jaduram. I would love to share a few words about Savita. Savita was a truly special person — kind, warm, and full of life. She had a beautiful smile that could brighten anyone’s day and a gentle presence that made people feel at ease. She was always cheerful and loved being around others, greeting everyone with kindness and genuine warmth. Savita had a wonderful way of connecting with people — she listened with care, spoke with thoughtfulness, and shared her joy so freely. She carried herself with quiet confidence and grace. Never wanting to trouble anyone, she was independent, considerate, and always thinking of others. Even on her quieter days, Savita’s positive spirit shone through in the way she treated those around her. Savita’s enthusiasm for life was inspiring. She found joy in simple moments — in good conversations, shared laughter, and the company of friends. Her presence brought light and warmth to those fortunate enough to know her. Today, as we remember Savita, we celebrate the kindness, strength, and love she brought into our lives. Though she is no longer with us, her spirit will live on in our hearts and in the memories we hold dear. Rest peacefully, Savita. You will always be remembered with love and gratitude.

The Woman Who Changed My Destiny. This is my beloved Aunty Savita Jaduram, who passed away on the 6th November.🥲 She was 'the change-maker' in my life. About 10 years ago, I shared with her my desire to change careers and study Psychology. With her usual clarity and conviction, she suggested I look into NLP — Neuro-Linguistic Programming — something I had never even heard of at the time. So I Googled it… and that single moment led me to begin my training with The Coaching Institute in Melbourne and become a Certified NLP Master Practitioner. From there, everything shifted. ✨My life expanded. ✨My motivation soared. ✨My confidence and courage grew. ✨My potential suddenly felt possible. And, I have not stopped. It was as if the whispers of my soul finally stepped into reality.🙏 I grew beyond anything I could have imagined — each stage of my journey lifting me to the next. Aunty Savita was... 🌹A forward-thinker. 🌹A motivator. 🌹A quiet force of courage and inspiration. 🌹A light during a time when my world felt dim. Her one piece of advice opened my heart in gratitude and possibilities for myself and other women. 💫It made me feel seen. 💫It amplified something inside me that had been waiting for permission to rise. 💫It deepened my connection with myself — my dreams, my voice, my aspirations. 💫It strengthened my belief in my own self-worth. 💫It gave me the courage to take risks. 💫And it gave me permission to reach higher than I ever thought I could. Thank you, my beloved Aunty Sav. As so beautifully shared at your funeral, your legacy now lives on through me. Devika

I want to add from Wellington, sadness, respects and all else necessary, following the news of Savita’s passing, which although pending for some time, still impacts heavily when it happens. I think of her in many ways, but the phrase, “the rock of 8 Rapallo” remains at the forefront. She was a flag bearer for your family in so many ways and she stood alongside the many and varied activities with which your father Mick undertook - whether in pharmacy, business, politics, Rotary and the community. He, you may agree, used a signature word “marvellous” which could be said, to have been due to the engine room provided by Savita. With best wishes and in sadness Anand
