Wi Hapi Love The man who pioneered the mobile X-ray unit in New Zealand, Mr Wi Hapi Love, died last April, aged 62. His funeral service was taken at Te Tatau-o-Te-Po meeting house by Canon Hepa Taepa and he was laid to rest in Te Puni cemetery. Mr Love was born at Picton and was educated at Nelson College and Wellington Technical College. He worked for a time with aerial photography for the Civil Aviation Department and after his work with the mobile X-ray unit undertook a health survey in the Pacific. This took him to New Guinea, the New Hebrides, New Caledonia, Fiji, Samoa, the Cook Islands and Tahiti. For 10 years, until his retirement in 1966, he was a technical officer with the Ministry of Works. He is survived by his wife, Marjory, and two sons, Peter and Michael.
