It comes with great sadness and grief to let everyone know that our son, brother, cousin and friend, Michael has passed away.

We've had many messages and calls of love and offers of assistance so we've set up this page to allow this to happen.

Michael spent time in both New Zealand and Australia, but NZ was, and always will be home for him. So it's Michael's and his whanau's wish to send him home. All money raised will go towards Michael making his final journey home.

Much love,

Michael's Whanau

Michael Forrest Maungapohatu Maui (12/06/97-13/02/17).

Waking up to hear one of the worst news. Can't believe it and I don't want to believe it. I was supposed to see you when I come back to Perth, spend time with you, but now you're gone. This photo was the last time I seen you, the very last cheeky smile I'll ever see. We had been through a lot together, I wish I could've helped more. We had such good memories together my bro. You were my best friend and still are no matter how long we didn't see or speak to each other, we were always there for each other.. I'm lost of words, I don't know how to feel. You always helped me when I had my dark times, and it was my turn to help you but you didn't give me the chance to help you out of this darkness. I miss you mikey and I love you. R.I.P Michael Maui gone but never forgotten, will forever be in our hearts. Sending my condolences to your family
