Absolute hero.
Lisa was cleverer, braver; and more effective than 1150 Tauranga staff, and the 500 contractors employed by council.
Lisa, who took no money from you saved more lives than the Council which took more than $474 million off you in 2025.
Well said.
What a tragedy that ultimately she lost her life after helping so many others.
