So shocked and saddened to hear of Lionels untimely passing. I remember Lionel from Shirley Boys High School. It was hard to miss him actually. I remember him as a very talented basketball player and his younger brother Hayden. Very quiet polite bloke. Thinking of all Lionels family in particular his wife and children during this very sad time. A mighty Kauri has fallen. God bless you big boy.

HOPGOOD, Lionel:
Passed away peacefully on December 7, 2019. He was a dearly loved uncle to Claire and George, Bodhi and Freya, and Belles.
Uncle Li Li - look at the stars, how they shine and glow,
Yet some of those stars died a long time ago.
Still they shine in the evening skies,
Love, like starlight, never dies.
