Keith Henderson An unusual tribute was paid to Mr Keith Dawson Henderson, with the holding of a tangi at Judea marae after his death in Tauranga on 7 January.

Both Mr Henderson, who had recently retired after being headmaster at Bethlehem Maori School for 11 years, and his wife, were honorary members of Ngati Ranginui. Mr Henderson, a Pakeha who held the status of an elder at the Judea, Wairoa and Bethlehem maraes, was accorded full chieftain's honours. Mr Henderson had a strong interest in Maori education and welfare, and with his wife was active in fostering Maori culture. He leaves his wife, Sylvia Ashton-Warner, two sons and a daughter.
