This week we talk to Chas for an insight into a traditional Maori funeral. From special preparations and a family dressing at the funeral director's to lying in state in the loungeroom followed by a threeday family send off at the traditional village, the Maori people have some beautiful traditions which involve all members of the family and bring love and togetherness to a time of grief.

A huge thank you to Chas for sharing this personal account with us and our viewers.
Three cheers for Chas. Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray!
