She had grace and poise backed up with knowledge and she could command the stage simply with her smile.
She was Kiriwaitingi (Del) Delamere Pare Rei (nee Aratema). The adored former Rotorua Girls High School teacher of more than 20 years died at the weekend aged 73 following an illness.
As the hearse left her home in Koutu yesterday, her body passed by Rotorua Girls High School one last time.
