Acknowledgement - Passing of Chloe and Michele Destrieux

 

 

 

Resolution number MR/2017/240

MOVED by Chairperson A Dalton, seconded by Deputy Chairperson R McLean:  

That the Manurewa Local Board:

a)            express its condolences to the Destrieux family on the passing of mother and daughter, Michele and Chloe Destrieux, on Friday, 3 November 2017.  Chloe was well known throughout the Manurewa community for her dedication to the community, passion for helping and mentoring young people and her love for the environment.  Chloe became a member of the Manurewa Youth Council in 2016 and was elected to the role of Chair in 2017.  Chloe also served as the Manurewa MP Louisa Wall’s Youth MP and as part of this role, with support from Louisa, in 2016 Chloe organised the very successful Manurewa Youth Summit with a focus on “what are the issues the young people in this electorate are facing”.  In July 2016 Chloe attended the two-day Youth Parliament in Wellington where she presented the results of the Youth Summit.  In 2016 Chloe was also named Alfriston College’s head girl.  We will miss the opportunity to see the great things Chloe could have continued to achieve.  Chloe was a wonderful representative of the Manurewa community and a true ambassador for youth. 

 

Her mum Michele was also known for her love and dedication to the Manurewa community and was absolutely positive about making people’s lives better.  Michele was fondly referred to by the Manurewa Youth Council as a second mum. Recently Michele had been involved in helping homeless people sleeping rough around the Manurewa Town Centre. 

 

Our thoughts are with the Destrieux family at this time and they will be truly missed.

 

b)            note that Rangi McLean, Manurewa Local Board Deputy Chairperson also acknowledged the recent passing of:

                      i.        Terence Butler

                    ii.        Rona Pihema Palalangi, Manurewa Marae
