I have always been so proud of my Dad, I always tell everyone my Dad was a Maori All Black winger and anything else that they want to listen to about him, hahahaha!
My Dad, Pat has been written about in Jerry's book
Quote from the book
"Rugby people and the Samoan communities of JC's beloved Porirua have always cheered him on - relentlessly and with unshakeable loyalty. They have cared for him, supported him and got him out of trouble when necessary.....that's the word on the street. Former Wellington rugby representative wing and experiences police sergeant Pat Myers, Court Officer at the Porirua District Court explained to me:
They love Jerry out here. He is one of us. He finds time for the rugby club and the people. In turn, we would always want to look out for him and after him - which we have had to do from time to time!"
It's on page 41.
