Ngāti Awa kaumātua Waaka Vercoe says the late Joe Mason was someone to be emulated.
Mr Mason, the founding secretary of the Ngāti Awa Trust Board and later the chair of Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Awa, has died in Whakatāne at the age of 87.
Mr Vercoe says he was a clever man who always retained a sense of humility, allowing him to make sharp decisions while also retaining the support of the tribe, bringing together old and new.
