PNG Chapter 3

Posted on August 19, 2025August 19, 2025

Pay Honour to All

There are always the moments when we realize there are friends who have played a huge role in our lives. This is the time to give that important acknowledgement, and love, to those who have impacted our lives.It all started with the flowers, a generous gift, and our arrival at a location in Papua New Guinea that would have been impossible to reach on our own.

Dickie Doyle will, and always remain in our hearts. He and his wife, both were buried on their beautiful spot in the Witu Islands. It is a long crossing from Walindi Plantation Resort and we “missed the boat” to personally deliver a bouquet of flowers. Thank you to Captain and Crew of MV Oceania for this special moment. 

Moment to respect Dickie Doyle

And how could we possibly forget the work and dedication of Max Benjamin? NEVER! He and his wife, Cecilie, started Walindi many years ago. Cecilie, along with their son and his wife, Cheyne and Ema, continue the tradition and are passing their knowledge on to grandson, Kobi. Max left us in July 2020.

Lauia Keating is unforgettable! But Pete reminds us of the love and passion they had for each other in addition to their wantoks of Walindi Resort. Lau passed away leaving an incredible mark on December 31, 2019.

Special People in My Life!

To end this chapter, let’s have some fun and enjoy the “NEXT GENERATION”  of children in Papua New Guinea. After so many wonderful years, these are the faces I love. Please watch the video by going to the Vimeo link below
