Mrs M. Bryan With the death of Mrs Micere Bryan, of Tuapiro, Katikati, the district has lost a respected and admired Maori woman. Her tangi was attended by Maoris and Pakehas from far afield. Mrs Bryan was born at Bowentown 71 years ago and was the daughter of the late Mr and Mrs W. Witeri. Throughout her life Mrs Bryan was deeply interested in Maori art and culture and became a skilled instructor of arts and crafts. As a member of the Katikati Women's Welfare League, she became a representative in the Maori Labour Party movement, and attended council meetings as a representative of Tauranga and Katikati. Mrs Bryan married her husband, Mr George Bryan (Maori name Paraeana) at the Judea meeting house, and the couple lived at Katikati. There are 15 children, 60 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
