Ratu Rabici Ganilau R.I.P.

From Valerie Warren -  Sep.19/2011
Dear All,

Below is a message received from Emelita Wendt Wilson regarding the passing of Ratu Rabici Ganilau, the beloved husband of Bernadette Rounds Ganilau.
Please send your prayers, beautiful thoughts, and good wishes to Bernadette and her dear daughter, as they walk through this time of deep and profound sadness.
Bernadette's email is:bganilau@gmail.com

Dear all,

If you haven't already heard, this is a short note to let you know that Lovey's husband, Ratu Rabici Ganilau, died at the weekend after falling into a coma last Friday. He was 52 and had been ill for some time. Sharon went to see Lovey earlier this morning. She was her usual calm and serene self, very accepting, and quietly happy that Rabici had been prepared and ready for his transition. There is to be a service in Suva at the Cathedral this Friday (not sure of the time yet), then Rabici will be taken to the family/ancestral home at Somosomo.

Loloma to you all and I trust you are keeping well?
Emelita

Dear Aunty Bernie,
I was saddened to hear of Rabici's passing. All those fond memories of You and Ram's time at Redcliffe, he causing anxiety for the opposition and You charming the members who loved you unconditionally.
All our love
